RE: Covid
Thanks, Ann, Brian, Dave, Mike & Stan, I had the loss of taste for a while, nothing really foul tasting but really only texture. The second Covid jab has helped a little I think, but it's long term tiredness and lack of sleep that are the real issues. I have follow up X-Rays, blood tests etc all planned out, so my social diary is full. I know someone locally who thinks (thought) the virus is all nonsense made to scare the public, a view that changed when a relative died of it. However, photography has been a help and a distraction, as it's got me out and about, although I can't manage hills yet.

A dose of flu is nothing to, er, sneeze at when you get to a certain age. And, yes, it's good to hear you are coming out the other side, Malcolm. I hope progress continues. -- %(real_name)s Pentax-Discuss Mail List To unsubscribe send an email to pdml-le...@pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

The rich countries such as the UK need to be sharing more. It’s not just the morally correct thing to do, it’s also a matter of enlightened self-interest. > On 2 Jun 2021, at 07:21, Alan C wrote: > > SA announced it had reached 1M vaccinations last night.

Re: Covid
SA announced it had reached 1M vaccinations last night. Only 58M + several M illegal immigrants to go. Maybe 5M by the end of the year? Heaven help the rest of Africa.

Very sorry to hear that, Malcolm. Hope that you're well on the way to recovery and that there are no long term effects.

RE: Covid
Glad to hear that - I have to wait at least another month for my first jab, due to the side-effects of my ongoing treatment.

Re: Covid
Sorry to hear Malcom but I hope you are on the mend. A good friend of the WD caught it last March in the start of all this and she had a hell of a time, in hospital for 2 weeks and very hard to breath said it felt like someone was poking her in the chest with a needle every time she took a breath. Let's hope the vaxx does what it supposed to do. Dave On Mon, May 31, 2021 at 1:25 PM Stanley Halpin wrote: > Sorry Malcom!

Re: Covid
Sorry Malcom! Our niece (who lives next door and is more like the daughter we never had) got covid in mid-November. Never hospitalized but down for several weeks. Gradual recovery, but definitely in the long-covid group. Her primary issues are arthritis-like pain in her knees, stomach upsets, and, predominately, totally screwed up taste/smell wiring - most foods smell rancid to her. We were working in the yard yesterday, as we were hauling some wild grapevines that we had cut down she commented “these smell like covid. Rancid.” I’ve read that some of the long-covid issues may be alleviated once the person gets their full set of vaccine; hopefully that proves to be true in your case!

Re: COVID-19 - Information is power
Very interesting thanks. Being locked in at home for two weeks now I have already read most of the themes covered in the video, but it is a very well done summary. As a curiosity the video also explains that the Spanish flue is called this way not because of its origin but because, not being involved in World War I, Spain was the first Western country that reported cases of the disease.
