    no doubt that vaccination helped him to avoid a more serious case

    It really is rosary country- well I would have been a lot worse if I hadn’t to have done that novena.

    Everybody I know who was triple jabbed has been sick- bedbound sick- and yet not a bother on the unvaccinated? Straw poll maybe, but still.

      Absolutely a straw poll, SOQ. Your experience is not representative of the whole country/ world.
      Nor is mine.
      For example, 5 people In my immediate family who have had Covid, all fully jabbed and boosted, none with any underlying illness, all have had various levels of sickness from “a scratchy throat” to “having to lie in bed unable to get up for 3 or 4 days”

      I also know of two others from another family, one in their 50s was sick with a bad head cold the other in their 70s but no underlying issues is still in ICU. Touch and go for her in the last day or two, but seems to be coming round the corner.

      Of seven (triple jabbed) I know who caught it, 1 was briefly bedbound, most had mild-ish symptoms and kept functioning fine, as you say no way whatsoever to measure what the outcome without vaccine would have been, particularly as Omicron is already supposed to be less debilitating.

      Thanks for marking your comment irrelevant by that last admission. Much appreciated.

      I’ll reply to everyone at once here.

      Yes a straw poll but I am not the only one who is saying such.

      My point is that given the now mildness of the virus, and the documented evidence that the vaccines wane very quickly, there is no way that statement can be proven. It is his belief that they worked- nothing more.

        I’ve got it. Day 5 to 7, bed bound. it’s not an effing flu. There are symptoms. Just because you have yet to catch it, why put everyone else down who has it. You really are a mean person. Go on tell us about Joe, climate change and the next conspiracy theory

    So we have covid we have long covid then light covid
    What next light to heavy covid
    I think mehole should be made wear a hamza suit not to protect him but to protect us from him for this idiot is a health hazard
    He went ahead and thought the lunch in the White House was like a golf outing
    He was infected and he then sat down knowingly with
    Covid 19 and put the yanks at risk
    God they have bombed other nations for less

      In fairness to him there do appear to be a couple of different types of symptoms doing the rounds. Different variants possibly or different individual physical responses? I don’t know, i’m not an expert. Go figure, I’m sure you will.

      I’m just about over a bout of it – i’d describe it as “light” compared to a pal of mine who is fatigued and feels like sitting down or lying down only. Zero energy. Same with a few others i know – some coughing like Arigna coal-miners for weeks after it, me – no cough whatsoever.

      1. SOQ

        There is also some other sort of bug doing the rounds apparently? People getting sick but testing negative?

      2. Dinkum

        Unless covid makes you stupid I doubt it could be true
        The latest mehole is upsetting India accusing them of supporting Russia
        What next sanctions on curry houses
        I think a seat on the UN Security Council has turned him into ghandi

        1. Fergalito

          Doubt what could be true? That there are different symptoms in different people, some “light” and others more severe? Don’t take it from me of course, i’m just an anonymous wang who says he’s seen it first hand.

    Great headline, well done!
    Although some would say that it doesn’t accurately describe the man.
