Now the wife tests positive. She had mild symptoms Monday and she got a PCR test that showed negative. Her symptoms sort of went away for a few days then she started feeling puny again today, we did a home test and it shows positive.

My dr. said he's seen cases that test negative early on but 48 hours later test positive. That's been true for both of us.

I think they don't really know squat about this virus.
I think they are still trying to figure it out because it keeps mutating. I know science is always changing but this is way to fast and is one reason I do not think the virus is natural. I would not be surprised to see it mutate into something really deadly.

Thanks for the info Chuter. I just turned 70 last week, so we're somewhat in the same boat. I am vaxed and boosted at the strong urging of my daughter (28), who is also vaxed and boosted as is everyone else in my family. I take and have been taking for over 5 years, zinc, D3, E, K, Calcium, Magnesium supplements daily, along with MSM, Tumeric and a multivitamin at night and B12 in the AM. I worked and lived in close quarters on the rigs for several years and never caught the flu from any of those other derelicts in our trailer. Covid ended my rig days, 2 years ago, but I continue with my regimen of supplements and mask up when in public which isn't much. I got my flu vax at the urging of my primary care physician who is a DO, not an MD, and got my first shingles vax injection wit the 2nd one in 2 months. He is happy with my regime and my exercise plans and execution. All good so far. I'll keep those treatments in mind if and it's probably when I do get the infection... but they say the vax has the same tendencies to act and react with cancers... Oh well...

Viruses almost always evolve into a form that is less lethal. By not killing the host they can be more sucessful in reproducing...and that is how living things "succeed".... I think the bigger worry is that a new enhanced function virus will escape from the Wuhan Institute of Virology. All the more reason to investigate Fauchi and his funding support for enhanced function research.

Took the last dose of molnupiravir this morning; I'm pretty much back to normal except for a little tired feeling.
Fever went away 24 hours after starting the drug, can't say if the drug made me get better or I just got better.

Wife is getting better without any early treatment, she's having a light case than I did, though I've been sick with the flu before that felt worse than I did the past week.
