Getting natural immunity is like playing Russian Roulette with your health, no?
No.

At Russian roulette, your odds of dying are 1 out of 6.
At COVID roulette, your odds of dying are 1 out of 99.

Same concept. Out of 100 that get Delta, how many get ill enough to go to the hospital vs vaccinated? How many suffer long COVID vs vaccinated?

Shows Joe Rogan probably has zero co-morbidity issues at a minimum.

Shows Joe got vaccinated and it's helping him recover with less serious symptoms. I don't know if he did get vaccinated.

Side note and probably off-topic........ My unvaxxed brother in law, the "sheeple", got it and recovered and is back to work just a few days ago. My Dad never got it but my sister, the nurse, who was vaxxed early on got it and was admitted to the hospital today for Covid related pneumonia.

Interesting that in 2020 no one had COVID I knew. Now there are at least a half dozen. Scared for my sister. She's like me, "big boned".

Pray for her if you do that sort of thing. Thanks.

He said he received monoclonal antibody treatment.

Who is eligible to receive monoclonal antibody therapy?
Monoclonal antibody treatment is available to individuals who:

Are high risk** for developing severe COVID-19 and
Have a positive COVID-19 test and have not yet been admitted to the hospital and
Are 12 years of age or older (and at least 88 pounds)

Post-exposure preventive monoclonal antibodies are available to those who have been exposed (consistent with the CDC's close contact criteria)* and who are:

High risk** for developing severe COVID-19 and
12 years of age or older (and at least 88 pounds) and
Not fully vaccinated or vaccinated but immunocompromised


**High risk includes any of the following:

65 years of age or older
Overweight (body mass index over 25)
Pregnancy
Chronic kidney disease
Diabetes (Type 1 and Type 2)
Weakened immune system
Currently receiving immunosuppressive treatment
Cardiovascular disease/hypertension
Chronic lung disease
Sickle cell disease
Neurodevelopmental disorders
Medical-related technological dependence

Why not offer it to anyone who test positive and unvaccinated that wants it? Treat it as early as possible for the best results?

Not me! I just took a Heartgard plus. So no covid AND no fleas. It's a win win. And the best part is, it tasted like beef... if you've never had beef before and have no idea what beef tastes like.
After finding out that Japan discovered all those vials of the Moderna vaccine containing all those tiny micro chips... I'm out!!

Hey, you might know... are the regular 8-month fear booster shots grape flavored?

Yeah, that was one of five things he took.

“ In a video that has been viewed 6 million times, the Spotify star said on Wednesday that he “immediately threw the kitchen sink at it.” He then went through a laundry list of treatments, including monoclonal antibodies, the steroid prednisone, a Z-Pac, a vitamin drip and ivermectin, the controversial drug used to deworm horses that has been touted by some conservative pundits.”

8 months? That’s so last month. We’re down to five, and taking a serious look at four.

Probably doesn’t matter, as the booster really doesn’t target the strain that’s the problem anyway.

But hey, there’s a placebo effect with the medicine.

And don’t forget, you also have to have a Covid pill, twice a day. It’s already in production, although they haven’t even finished the clinical trials for it yet.

That’s pretty good news.

I’ve heard that eating pie is important to recovering from Covid.

An entire pie, or three, as much as you can get down your gullet.
