[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nothing. Those aren’t Covid symptoms. [/quote]

Yes they are[/quote]

The top 5 symptoms for vaccinated people are headache, runny nose, congestion, sore throat, loss of smell . OP has one and it’s the 4th most common. The ears are from swimming. Probably the sore throat too. She can get tested but a ton of people on this board came home from the beach feeling lightly cruddy this summer and not one who tested was actually positive. [/quote]

But if OP is only around other adults, it shouldn't matter if she has it![/quote]

Not at all. Delta can spread among vaccinated people, who can then infect kids or vulnerable people who despite being vaccinated, are still at risk from Delta: the elderly, those with comorbidities, and those who were vaccinated more than 6 months ago.

Delta is 225% more transmissible than the original strain, and replicates 1000 faster, and all vaccination does is prevent the recently-jabbed, healthy, prime-of-life vaccine bearer from complications and death. It does not prevent transmission.[/quote]
Link please to 225% more transimissalbe?[/quote]

The CDC presentation says the Delta variant is about as transmissible as chickenpox, with each infected person, on average, infecting eight or nine others. The original lineage was about as transmissible as the common cold, with each infected person passing the virus to about two other people on average. [/quote]

Let me just point out that from 2 to 8 is 400% more infections and to 9 is 450% so that pp was wrong, it's not 225% more infections, it's between 400 and 450% more.[/quote]

Those who say 2.5 x more or 250% more aren't going by the chicken pox equivalence info that came on out 07/30. They are going by earlier info that found alpha this much more contagious that the original and delta this much more contagious than alpha. [/quote]
