I'll note that an updated booster came out this past fall, and few Americans have gotten it.

I have the vaccine and every booster available. My partner picked up covid from work and now I have it. I’ve been bed-ridden for the past several days. It hurts when I swallow. Partner got over the worst of it relatively quickly but still has a gentle persistent cough.

Thanks to all the bosses with their RTO policies and anti-vaxxers and all the politicians who let this thing rage on. I hope they all find themselves pushed off the edge of a cliff someday.

Similar. Boosted in the fall, got covid yesterday. Same symptoms.. lethargy is so strong.

Hope you feel better soon. I additionally suffered through muscle/joint aches and chills. I am a bit more on my feet now but I still feel tired and crappy, with a persistent cough and a still sore throat. I'm still mostly taking it easy to recover as best as I can.
