I'm hoping Tony will get better soon.
FYI, it looks like nearly everyone will get this sooner or later. The number of confirmed COVID cases in the USA now exceeds 100,000,000 (and I expect the real number is considerably higher).
I have four friends who all got it back East over the Xmas holiday. ALL four had been vaccinated with multiple boosters. The latest version, for many people, starts with a fever, then head cold, sore throat, cough, and people have trouble talking. Some people are getting severe muscle pains. For 3 of my 4 friends (all over 60), symptoms persisted for 15+ days.
You can get this multiple times unfortunately. A gun journalist friend, who travels a lot by air, has got it 4 times now.

Prayers and good wishes for Tony.
I've had it twice and the symptoms only lasted a few days. I got plenty of rest but did get up and around a few times to keep the body moving, made sure I took some vitamin D, ate 2 or 3 oranges and bananas a day, and drank plenty of water.

Especially if you had the shots!

I hope Tony recovers shortly. But in reference to some of the above posts, at 75 I know the flu has been around my entire lifetime. Also on observation doesn't seem like the vaccine does much more than make a small group rich. On the advice of my family Dr. years ago, I have only ever had 1 flu shot, about 50 plus years ago. I think year after year getting various shots does not help our natural immunity. Kids don't play in the dirt for the last 30 or 40 years, everything is all about super clean don't let the kids play on the floor, so natural immunity gets curtailed. Just an old guy's ramblings.

I'm healthy because I ate boogers, mud pies, and my finger nails!

I'm not sure about the first and third but I have eaten a lot of mud in my life. Mostly not by choice.
Second that....

My wife and I both had the vaccine and booster due to our age (yeah, maybe not the greatest idea) and never contracted it until September 2022 when it was the milder variant, but still not fun. Take heart in the fact that the new oral treatment that prohibits it from producing more live viral cells helps get over it pretty quickly as the older cells die off and there's nothing live to replace them, especially if treated early like my wife. Between putting it off a day and pharmacy snafu's at two different ones, I was 4 days into it when there's only a 5 day window for the medication and it was raging. Still got me much better within 5 days and in 10 days I was negative. My wife had the same pharmacy issues so I gave her my 4th dose and replaced it the next day when we got hers and she was better by the second day after starting the prescription. Hope Tony recovers well from it, but not as much as he does obviously!

I can vouch for that in several instances. My wife and I were treated with Ivermectin when in the hospital with the CHINA virus. They succumbed to pressure and quit.
Along with cleaning up after thousands of horses, cows, pigs, and chicken "end game results". Then add a few bushels of dust while working fallow ground on a thousand acres, pollen from various hay and grain dust. I figure I've got as good a natural immunity as you can get.
Anything that both the pharmaceutical companies and the fed's promote, raises my BS meter, any merchant that refused to let me in without a mask didn't see my money that day nor any day that has followed. I refused to get any clot shot as I have no underlying health factors nor had a job where it was mandated. As more and more data is finally seeing the light, my decision seems to be be upheld.
All the best to Tony and his family as they travel this road.

It does indeed. Some just don't wake up.
And for many of us, apparently including Tony:
Pigheadedness works well, until the day it doesn't.
If you get COVID and it's not going very well, you need to get help....., or die.
I realize I'm a nobody here, but I imagine it would be nice to keep this thread about Mr. Boyer, rather than a downward spiral of Covid opinions and conspiracies - surely we have all been through enough of those the past couple years.
