early on i volunteered for vaccine trials

yesterday i got a call to be part of an astra-zeneca study

would start this tuesday

going to read the material i received this weekend

my first choice was moderna

i'm open for any science feedback

thanks

well tuesday has come and gone and i'm still here

at first nada but 24 hours in (yesterday afternoon) i sprouted a mild fever, minor aches and pains and malaise

last night my body told me to throw it into park/weigh anchor

so i went to bed at 7:30 - 8:00

today i'm just a bit draggy but otherwise doing ok

{#Good-vibes}

qualified to have my blind broken this morning (scheduled to have pfizer jab next tuesday so astrazeneca had to let me know)

turns out i did get vaccinated (first shot mid dec, second shot mid jan)

so i've been walking around for months building immunity

{#Cheers}

Sometimes the microchip tears a bit of muscle on the way in. That won't happen with shot 2.

The real question...how are you feeling now?

I can now pick up FM radio stations from Chicago. I just have to put my ear to my shoulder . Maybe they'll improve the audio on injection #2

Five-Day Course of Oral Antiviral Appears to Stop SARS-CoV-2 in Its Tracks

A single pill of the investigational drug molnupiravir taken twice a day for 5 days eliminated SARS-CoV-2 from the nasopharynx of 49 participants.

That led Carlos del Rio, MD, distinguished professor of medicine at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, to suggest a future in which a drug like molnupiravir could be taken in the first few days of symptoms to prevent severe disease, similar to Tamiflu for influenza.

"I think it's critically important," he told Medscape Medical News of the data. Emory University was involved in the trial of molnupiravir but del Rio was not part of that team. "This drug offers the first antiviral oral drug that then could be used in an outpatient setting."

Cool. I wonder how critical the timing is. Because onset of *my* symptoms seemed to take about 3 weeks, honestly. I isolated as much as possible and took a test when it got shaky... but it was negative. Then things really heated up and I took another test about 10 days later. If I'd done the antiviral around about the time I took the first test, would that have been too soon? If I'd waited until I got a positive test, would that have been too late?

Maybe they should just put that stuff in the water.
