Had a runny nose and some congestion which are minor to say the least but since I was supposed to go on a trip with some friends this weekend I decided to get tested just to be sure. Low and behold I'm now officially a statistic. I'm vaccinated so hoping for nothing more than minor symptoms.
Will update this thread as we go forward.

They aren't all vaxxed and while I'd love to say it's their choice I wouldn't be comfortable going knowing I put the group at risk even if minor and like I said I do have some symptoms.

if they were vaxxed and I told them and they were cool. Sure.

You got monies tied up on a golf trip and people are afraid of the sniffles? ok.

Might consider Ivermectin if you have concerns. Plenty of information out there about the success folks have had with that drug including millions in India, but let us know if you need more details. Tons of posts about Ivermectin on TexAgs too.

Praying for mild symptoms and a quick recovery.

That's BS.

I'm getting vaxxed just so I don't have to miss these things.

Pfizer, 2nd dose in April. Symptoms not getting worse. Basically have the sniffles and a very moderate cough. Symptoms started on Tuesday. Hoping everything stays at bay.

Crazy this even needs to be said. Surely that attitude got us where we are today. Sorry your sick, hope the jab does the job and you are back to yourself quickly.

What test did you take? Was it the $20 deal you can buy at HEB or CVS?

I thought about that but didn't want to put them in a tough spot. They are nice guys and probably would have said yes even if they didn't mean it.

Update for me: feels like maybe I tested positive towards the end of the cycle as today my mild symptoms are nearly gone. Slight runny nose, no more coughing. Overall I feel pretty normal.

You might want to test again. I tested positive (PCR) but didn't have any symptoms. Tested again and it came back negative. False positive rate is supposed to be really low so all I can figure is lab error.

OP is just prolonging this by pushing herd immunity further down the road.

Herd immunity is available now if people would take advantage of it.
