I got my 2nd booster (4th Moderna shot) on May 29th. On Tuesday this week my throat was sore, so I went for my first-ever Covid test. The rapid test was negative, but the PCR result the next day was positive. So I have it. For me, it is like a very bad cold plus allergies. I have a lot of congestion in my sore throat and it's very hard to sleep at night because I'm lying down. My sinuses are dripping into my throat and then just as I get comfortable, I have to blow my nose. I've had two bad nights so far. I also have bad sinus headaches.
This was my first cold since January of 2019.
I had Paxlovid delivered today and took the first dose this afternoon.
I would not wish this on anyone.
The alert level is still high in New York, even though it is past the peak. I wear my mask, but almost no one is wearing them in large stores Whole Foods and Target. No wonder it was easier for me to get now than it was in 2020 when everyone here wore masks.
Of course I have stayed home since I got the positive result.
