(B Varient) Covid
As the Mayo Clinic Covid map for Florida indicates The Villages area is in or very near the hot spot of Orlando.
I became ill with tons of post nasal drip recently, difficult nights, saw an M. D., penicillin RX for Sinunitis. I wasn't acutely aware of the new B Varient that hit England. First Warning: My future golf scramble was just cancelled due to so many Villagers cancelling out due to Covid symptoms. Not reading current local news about this issue. I decided to home test, Bingo, both my husband and myself tested Positive for Covid. Now I'm finding the so called "Free" Covid testing program is not free at the drug stores, they want your insurance card, if not the cost is $129. Everyone has indicated just pop over and get tested, not so when you actually research it. Hope this message helps someone. |

"Not reading current local news about this issue."
Yes, Covid still seems pretty bad, but seems to be not as newsworthy as Ukraine and SCOTUS decisions have preempted the health news. Best wishes and be safe. Last edited by JohnN; 06-28-2022 at 11:40 AM. |

We both had covid last month happily not a very severe case but no idea which variant. Easy to get test kits for at home testing.

So did you find out you were positive from your home test kits?

Yes. Took a few minutes to figure out how to do it but after that a piece of cake.

Well, they are probably not reporting it because most cases are with the vaccinated, as the new variant is not affected by the vaccine and they still want everyone to get the shot. However, they are rolling out a new booster to supposedly work against the Omicron variant. Don’t shoot the messenger, just reporting the facts. Get well.

Seems that most information about the shots and covid are malarky. I was supposedly exposed to covid and took the home test and it came up positive. Went to Urgent Care because of a sinus problem, they did a prc and I was negative. The home tests are unreliable and the continued hype about covid is BS.

Better hop right off and get another booster shot, right? Isn't it odd that the vast majority if those now getting Covud or the Variant have all been vaccinated and boosted? Isn't it odd that before the vaccine and boosters, we never had Sudden Adult Death Syndrome but now we see people every single day under the age of 50 dying aith "no cause of death" listed and recently a 25 year old who supposedly died "from natural causes"? Who ever heard of a 25 yr. old dying from natural causes? Just saying.

People afraid to get vaccinated should be thankful to those that took the risk and are largely responsible for bringing deaths from the pandemic relatively under control.

Covid home test
We received our home tests made by IHealth a week ago. As a retired RN I checked the expiration dates on the box. They all expire 8/6/22 or 8/11/22. My inquiries about this as it’s only 6 weeks away,ended with the FDA who informed me that the shelf life is extended until November. There was no information about this with the arrival of the test kits. She also said there are a total of 6 different kits with an extended shelf life. So, check your test kits.Interesting!

We got the vaccine and booster and when we finally got covid it was a mid case. The people getting it now are typically not dying or being hospitalized so to me the vaccine has done its job.
