lol, "I'm not anti-vaxx" but I'm 100% certain all my and my wife's random health issues are directly caused by the shot!!!
Like, I gained 10 lbs after getting my shots, but I think that's because of all the potato chips I've been eating at 1am, not so much because of the vaccine.
Takes all the vaccines, goes to hospital, other people there with the same symptoms and conditions
“Fuckin anti vaxxer!”
Honestly in hindsight I feel regret being coerced into the vaccine. I think history will look back on the vaccine passports and being forced out of restaurants and gyms because you didn’t take a shot as an incredibly archaic time in our lives. Especially given the data regarding efficacy and transmission.

They went to a hyperbaric chamber, which has shown to help people with hearing loss among other things. Of course they're going to come across people with the same symptoms and conditions.
By that logic if you went to a physiotherapist for back problems from a car accident you'd assume everybody else there for back treatment also got into a car accident and that car accident were rampant?

I dunno. After my first 2 vaccines, a friend bet me to run 10k in 40 minutes despite never really running in my life. I had a month to hit the time. I was 34 seconds off. But the next 2 vaccines, I’m out of breath after a couple flights of stairs….
Oh wait, it’s having a baby and not exercising for 6 months. But it’s gotta be the vaccines lol.

History will likely forget how all the various interventions had the goal of decreasing the chance of spread was to prevent overwhelming the hospitals and not for the purpose of making people's everyday life more difficult.
I've never tested positive, not sure if I've ever had it. I've never done cardio until about 2 years ago, so I don't notice any difference. I'm dizzy half the time since the shots. Walking down grocery store isles is sometimes bad. Motorcycle makes me feel sick. Repeat heavy braking in the car makes me nauseous, and I'm the driver. I'm not anti vax, but these ones weren't ready for prime time. I decided against the 4th after my wife lost her hearing. 20 sessions in the hyperbaric chamber she met a bunch of people with the same hearing loss.
The chances of 2 married people with completely different physiologies having similar strong reactions to the vaccine are statistically extremely small - almost zero. Did you even have the same vaccines?
The chances of 2 married people having some kind of reaction to something in their common environment at the same time are extremely high. If you both started having significant reactions/medical issues at the same time - I'd be looking at what else you do together. Have you checked your home for mold? Changes in cleaning products? Other building maintenance and changes if you live in an apartment? People overlook these things.
I'm not trying to give you a hard time here. Just suggesting you consider other causes if you haven't already done so.

wait what? that's impressively fast. i'm not too naturally athletic but even when i was running 3 days a week i never did faster than 44m, and i was quite proud of that time!

Mold is such a weird one.. honestly I think unless your home has physically visible black mold it’s almost impossible to pin point mold as an issue.
The air quality testing companies do reference indoor air quality and use outdoor air quality as a baseline. We live in a rain forest, there’s mold and funghi literally everywhere. So these companies give you a report back saying these levels inside your home are lower than outside, well yea.. of course they are lol
This is a known problem with air quality testing in the Pacific Northwest

Yea and funny enough today the hospitals are more crowded than at any point of Covid and yet you don’t have to show your passport to eat a burger.
In b4 flu shot passport
Possible contributing factors to current crowding:
1. nurses and other health care staff put up with 3 years of covid and have started to say eff this and left the field.
2. Decreased incoming new health care workers whether it's locally trained students or immigrants because closed borders, students learning how messed up the system is and saying eff this and didn't even finish the courses.
3. More people going out and living lives like precovid = spread of things.
4. Surgeries backed up for the past 3 years that need to be done now on top of the new ones.
5. Health care workers not getting paid enough to live in Vancouver, so they leave to Alberta for affordability.

That's really impressive if you were able to do that with limited training.
I'm trying to get sub 6 minutes per KM, I'm getting close but still not there yet mind you I'm no longer spry lol.

Lol. Well the first 2 vaccines gave me super powers…
….I’ve always been pretty active active the last 20 years. Just transferred the cycling lungs out for some running lungs, and a crap ton of nasty intervals for a month. Lol. Once the knees got over it, it was smooth sailing. I’ve since quit. Lol.
Sorry to be bearer of bad news but ... federal health minister is recommending a booster for Kraken ... I'm just the messenger. It really is becoming like the flu where every year or so, there is a booster for variant. Of course, it is optional so calm down Hondaracer.

Finally tested positive for covid, came on last night and was wrecked all night. I'd give it a strong cold rating.
Best part is that It was supposed to be my first day at the new job today haha. Guess I'm staying in for a bit
Day 1: low energy, headache, at night I had epic night sweats and heat flashes
Day 2 and 3: Same as day 1, but 50% better overall, slept thru half the days with low energy
Day 4, 5, 6: mostly recovered, minor headache and less than usual energy, good to go by day 6
The heat flashes were crazy, one moment I feel like I'm cold and had the heater on, then 5 minutes later, I'm profusely sweating, back and forth like that for hours

Lol I was thinking the same thing like 40 minutes is hella fast even for an avid runner let alone someone who has never run before. In the sun run the fastest person runs it around 29mins and your time would post you in the top 400 or so out of over 30000 runners. If you were only 34 secs off with 1 month of training and zero experience that's god like potential
P.S. no sarcasm I'm hella impressed!

he could be an avid cyclist or something. if you cycle up hills a lot then you're going to be fast on hikes or running, but you won't have the biomechanical conditioning to do it very well. still if you are that naturally fit you could slug your way through a fast 10k even though it would make you hurt for a few weeks after. look at a guy like sebastian salas. was a pro cyclist at one point and then does sub 24m in the gg.

True maybe I'm giving him too much cred lol. Still a great time none the less mate.

Lol. God like potential… not quite, but I do think I probably should take it on. Saying that, a week later I tried doing it again without the mental strength of winning a bet and I barely hit 42 minutes. I can be a bit extreme at times. But yes avid cyclists, and I should also say I use to incorporate lots of short sprints into workouts. Those runs were basically 7.5/10 sprints anyhow, just prolonged. Lol!
After all this time, I finally got the 'Vid. Took 2 days to test positive since I started feeling bad. Cough, fever, headache, that's about it.
Thankfully they just changed the rules the other day, otherwise technically I would have to report it and be whisked off to an isolation cell for a week.
