The big unknown for people like me at the moment is, how will the virus go next and is antigenic escape necessarily driving milder infection, or will the next solution for the virus be a different combination, perhaps antigenic escape and a severe infection? We can't exclude that at the moment because we don't understand why omicron has changed its behaviour in the way it has. Is it a necessary consequence for the virus, this change in antigenic characteristics, or not. Can they be uncoupled? That's intense research, big questions. There are a number of other worrying things out there, we've seen the virus hop back into certain animal species, from where it could always re-emerge in the future.. . and there's some evidence that chronically infected people incubate these viruses for a long time and give rise to these new variants, there are many many thousands of these people around the world. I don't think that this is the last variant we'll see. I don't know at the moment what the characteristics of the next variant will be. I think that if we continue to see this trend in downward severity after another one or two variants I will feel a lot more comfortable in saying, yes, let's relax.
Hope you're OK, it's gone mad right now to be frank. I went to a funeral yesterday and pretty sure that will turn out to be a mini super spreader event Not a mask in sight.Tested positive.
Mrs Mull round about day 5 of being symptomatic. Seems very simillar to a cold. Not too much coughing. Not much sore throat. Just wiped out.
I'm still negative....
When you start coughing up black, you've got Corvid.The Wife is negative but has a cold and sore throat.
My Covid is a bit of snot and feel grotty. No sore throat. So far.
Still coughing up green though.

I used to smoke, so appreciate coughing up any brown/black bits out of my lungs.
Seriously thinking of doing a steam/menthol inhalation - towel over my head job to help expectorate phlegm off my chest. We have no Vicks in the house though - it is the steam that is required though. That will be a very 1970’s thing to do.

When I was in hospital the guy in the next bed had a hospital aquired infection and had to do this every two or three hours.

Also going to do some Huffing.
It is a fantastic technique that I learned from a Physiotherapist decades ago. I have used it with many patients. Takes a bit of practice, but is very effective.

If you decide to do a steam inhilation try adding a few drops of olbas oil to the water..
That's nothing to crow about.When you start coughing up black, you've got Corvid.
