Getting like the flu shots, which basically protect against the known strains of the flu.
Actually, I saw on the news yesterday that the mRNA vaccines are able to be tweaked for the current strain that is circulating in the population at the present time. There is no guess work with these new technology vaccines. I'm so appreciative of the technology we have today.

This strain of Covid that I have is a big nothing burger for me. I'm feeling great now and my symptoms (sore throat that lasted about 15 minutes and a very occasional dry cough) started only three days ago. Today I developed a low grade fever but that is gone now with the OTC cold/flu medication I took. I know I'm not to take any fever reducing medication 24 hours before I'm to come out of quarantine and my temp has to be normal.
