Glad to hear you had a mild does and have recovered. Even with all 4 shots my 94yo dad has it (and a broken hip, and a broken hip, and now phenomena) - I really hope he makes it. My twin sister and her husband ended up with it -- but for some reason I haven't got it and I only have had 3 or the 4 shots. I guess I'm just lucky thus far.
It is as bad as it has even been in the hospitals -- I have gf that is a nurse and relatives that are doctors and nurses and I hear about it. Doesn't show up in the news as much as it was -- guess it's the news-media empire wanting new stores.
