México declares all 31 states GREEN.
Mask, distancing, and occupancy rules to go away.
No New Variants of concern anywhere.

My wife and I are both RNs, she is in trauma, I'm in the ER. We've both had COVID and survived it with no problems and no vaccine. Both of us are over 60, not obese, no co-morbidities. Most of our staff (RNs and MDs) feel that the vaccine is a bigger threat than the virus. Document release by Pfizer seems to be confirming that suspicion. Hopefully the virus will soon be declared endemic and will join the seasonal flu as another nuisance we have to deal with.

For a few people. Not a generalization as you make it appear. I don't give a hoot what capacity you work in you NEVER generalize medicine and immunology. Yes through virology I qualify as an M.D.

Anecdotal occurrences are not evidence. i.e. you got lucky. Others died, insisting they did not have covid.

Which vaccine side effects occur at higher rates in vaccinees than with those infected? Provide links to the rates in both groups; peer reviewed studies or preprints will be acceptable as sources of data, news articles and opinion websites will not be acceptable data sources.

I'll get things started. Myocarditis occurred at a higher rate after infection than after vaccination.

Quote:

We estimated an extra two, one and six myocarditis events per 1 million people vaccinated with ChAdOx1, BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273, respectively, in the 28 days following a first dose and an extra ten myocarditis events per 1 million vaccinated in the 28 days after a second dose of mRNA-1273. This compares with an extra 40 myocarditis events per 1 million patients in the 28 days following a SARS-CoV-2 positive test.

Here in México Rayos Xs have revealed one confirmed case and the 8 year old was born with a cardiac defect and recovered without Rx intervention. Total cases all variants continue to a point lower in PPM than any measured beforehand. Only extremely isolated indigenous villages that refused inoculation report sporadic probable undocumented cases.

And like the majority of flu that has ran its course in my lifetime, I always seem to get infected when it's on it's way out.

Had to go to cardiologist last thursday. First symptoms began Sunday. No not a cough, or runny nose...

Swollen eyelids like conjuvitis. Red eyes. Pain. Then fever started. Now 102.2°F without Tylenol. Body aches and fatigue. Sleeping 12-15 hours a day.

No sore throat or any discerable respiratory impact.

I am very relieved I was ultra immunized. With the top 5 comorbidities, like daily Dexamethazone Rx I seem to be a walking poster boy for worst case sceanario.

If symptoms increase to worrisome levels friends are more than ready to take me to a waiting border ambulance.

I am isolated quarantined and will stay this way for the next week. Of allthe symptoms, the eyes bother me the most because I am an avid reader.

Our whole family had Omicron few weeks ago. All fully vaccinated so no complications at all. We had some meds at home, i checked all the descriptions and dosages on Canada Drugs and we took some to get rid of the fever and headaches.

I consider myself recovered. If I had to guesstimate I would shelve my case of Ómicron far down the shelf from recent influenza episodes as far as intensity and discomfort are concerned.
