I am trying to learn as much as I can from first hand experience. That would mean I can tell a story second hand, but much better than a random person who wrote on Facebook.

So, were you "sick" the whole time? And/or how long? Any details would be appreciated, even though I know it is not my business. I truly am trying to learn, and I do hope you are okay.

Have you had a test since then to tell your levels? I have heard that we are 6 to 8 months in and the levels of natural immunity are wearing out, just as our levels of vaccine immunity might also be dropping a bit, but much from what I hear it is less than the natural immunity decline. I heard 85%, so a third shot (booster) they are considering gets us back up.

Again, I hope you are okay. Thanks for any info you are willing to share.

I was definitely sick that long and actually even longer. Shortness of breath for me lasted about 2 months. I haven't been sick since, sm Wed, Aug 11 2021 at 08:19 AM CDT (16)
- I don't think there is any data yet on whether natural immunity is either stronger or lasts longer than vaccination immunity. sm Thu, Aug 12 2021 at 09:16 AM CDT (15)
  - Read this. Study is attached Sm Thu, Aug 12 2021 at 09:21 PM CDT (0)
  - Actually there is data and if you want me to send you more I will See link Thu, Aug 12 2021 at 09:12 PM CDT (13)
    - There is data, yes, conflicting data and incomplete data. Amost no one has had natural immunity for more than a year and a half, sm Sat, Aug 14 2021 at 09:47 AM CDT (12)

        Recent data on cases of reinfection shows that vaccination is more effective at preventing it than naturally acquired immunity. sm Sun, Aug 15 2021 at 08:23 AM CDT (4)
        
        Disagree. The narrative is breaking down. Serious problems are already coming out. Sun, Aug 15 2021 at 08:48 AM CDT (3)
        
        If you think it's all about "narrative," never mind the numbers, you really should take this conversation to the other board. nm Sun, Aug 15 2021 at 05:46 PM CDT (2)
        
        The narrative is breaking down. Watch how many serious cases Are vaccinated. These vaccines are not working Mon, Aug 16 2021 at 09:34 AM CDT (1)
        
        Please take any further discussion to the NSP board nm M9 Mon, Aug 16 2021 at 10:47 AM CDT (0)
      - Oh yes, and most of the immunity studies look only at antibodies, which are just one subset of the total immune system. sm Sat, Aug 14 2021 at 09:52 AM CDT (5)

        It's interesting to think about this. Researchers find long-lived immunity to 1918 pandemic virus sm Sat, Aug 14 2021 at 10:34 AM CDT (3)
        
        Too bad they missed the window to test duration of immunity in those who contracted the virus in middle and old age. sm Sat, Aug 14 2021 at 11:35 AM CDT (0)
        
        Yes, but even with influenza, variants can override immunity. And humans have never developed long-lasting immunity from common-cold coronaviruses. nm Sat, Aug 14 2021 at 11:31 AM CDT (0)
        
        The human body is pretty amazing what it can do. nm Sat, Aug 14 2021 at 10:37 AM CDT (0)
