One medical practitioner, close to the previous US Administration, is quoted as thinking that sex with demons was a primary cause of illness in the world.

I can absolutely attest that sex with demons does not cause physical illness - I never got sick once in the two years I dated my college girlfriend, lol. Chronic depression and anger issues, maybe...

Get well soon!

I am sorry to hear you got Covid! And that it borked your booster shot appointment. Here's hoping you recover quickly and easily.

Where I am, it's been difficult to get those scheduled - places are booked up weeks out. My wife got lucky and found a pop & pop pharmacy that had tons of spaces available, so we were able to get ours a few days ago.

Booster shots are going to be vitally important going into this winter.

Oh, that sucks.
My non-professional medical advice would be to get better, soon!

You don't by chance know if its delta or omikron?

Take zinc supplements and about 4000 units of vitamin D each day. It won't make it vanish, but it will go a long way towards mitigating the effects. Dealt with this about a year ago- the Vit-D and Zinc helped me get through it with no major symptoms or issues. An osteopathic doctor recommended it, and it worked great. Hope you feel better soon. Better still, if you have a local doc that will prescribe you ivermectin, it'll be cured in a few days. Despite what the MSM has been saying, Ivermectin is not 'horse dewormer,' although that is a veterinary application of it. Ivermectin won the 2016 nobel prize as a life-saving anti-parasitic medicine for human beings.

COVID is NOT a damned parasite, it's also likely not available in non-veterinary form anyway. Quit spreading actually dangerous misinformation.

I just want to say that while the mainstream medical establishment doesn't endorse ivermectin for covid, at least in the west, it isn't just some nebulous "the internet" that does - there are quite a lot of doctors and other health care practitioners that are recommending it and other approaches for treatment.

Throwing around terms like "medical misinformation" in this day and age is tricky, because it depends upon who you are talking to. In the end, it comes down to who you trust, and what makes sense to you.

And to clarify, I am not recommending for or against any particular avenue of treatment. But I do take issue with this sharp duality of "the mainstream is true, and everything else is misinformation." That is a very dangerous place to find ourselves.

Zelenko, Malone and "America's Frontline Doctors" have all been thoroughly debunked repeatedly.
