Have you had Covid after being double jabbed?

[Tulipomania]

I know of a couple of people who have, and am wondering how common it is.

If you have had it, how bad was it?

How recently were you jabbed?

Yes. House of four here, three double vaccinated and one single vaccinated. We’ve all had it.

Husband was in hospital for 24 hours but is now recovered. I’m on day eight and the cough is really getting to me. If there is no improvement in the morning I think I need to seek some medical help.

For the younger two in the house (18 and 20) it’s been like having flu. 18-year-old is single vaccinated and he has now been ill for two weeks but is definitely much improved

My colleague was jabbed last November/December and she has still gone on to have it twice over the last 6 months.

Each time she was wiped out, feverish, headaches, sore throat and a cough that persisted for weeks.

My parents both caught it after the jab. My dad had a cough for a few days then a day or two with cold symptoms then fine, my mum had no cough but then a fairly bad cold for a few days then okay after. My mum doesn't keep well and is obese and has high blood pressure so I've been terrified of how she would cope if she caught it but she was fine getting it after the vaccines.

Two of my friends have had it. One is very unwell (she had her second dose in March so perhaps it’s waning) but she is starting to feel better in little just a week.

The second one is CEV. She was hospitalized (it was more precautionary than out of necessary, she wasn’t in an ICU) for less than a day and was sent home to recover. She is starting to feel better now too.

These people are early/mid twenties.

Someone at work was double jabbed and had Covid really badly.

PIL's also double jabbed and got covid, were in bed for a couple of days.

I know lots of people who have COVID after being double jabbed, most haven't been too bad apart from my colleague. That was the second time he had Covid too.

I thought the jab was our ticket out of all this?! Obviously not.

Im double jabbed with Pfizer, DH had AZ. We've both been taking high strength Vitamin D /K2, Immunace, and fizzy Vit C and zinc.

Im petrified of getting Covid as I'm very overweight.

My friend in her early 40’s had it a couple of weeks ago. She said it was bad for a couple of days then ok. She had her last jab in July. Another friend in her 50’s and husband in his 40’s had it over the summer. She was very bad and still wiped out now. He was ok as was their 10 year old. 50 year old had her jabs ages ago. Not sure about her husband, more recently I’d have thought.

About 20 people, friends, family, work colleagues etc who have been DJ'd have co ntracted Covid with varying states of severity - From hospitalization to barely symptomatic.

DS has just tested positive.

He was double jabbed quite a while ago. He's feeling OK so far, but is abroad so self-isolating is feeling a bit lonely.

Me , caught from my also double vaccinated boyfriend . Only really 24 hours in of flu like symptoms and I m in pjs in bed but can get up to make meals .
Bf about 2/3 days ahead and just has a bit of a cough now

close friend got it, ended up being a mild case but seemed to last a while. about 6 weeks after 2nd jab.

Double jabbed.. Just under 4 weeks later 2 days post 50th I tested +

Felt rubbish for 5 days. Middle day I had 2 naps!!
Was quite thinking napping could be the New Me!!

I hope they are collecting all the data on this officially so we can do good comparisons including based on people's age and also which type of covid jab they had.

Xenia they must be

The world's best brains are working on it I'm sure once we get through those winter we will have much better data etc. I'm just worried about this winter.

The Zoe app is good for this

I tested positive a month after my 2nd pfizer jab. Symptoms were like a bad cold initially - headache, stuffy and runny nose etc. Cough and loss of smell came later.

Still poorly almost 6 weeks later but I have a lot of underlying conditions and was taking a mild immunosuppressant at the time I caught Covid.

I know two people in their 60s who had Covid when double jabbed. One was asymptomatic which was a relief as they had recently had cancer and the other had flu like symptoms and was unwell for a month or so before recovering.

My concern was just the the very expensive travel PCR tests people have to buy - apparently only 5% of those are being used for checking how the virus is spreading so in a sense 95% are wasted as to their data, but may be 5% is enough to track things.

Me and dh! Jabbed in January and April.

It was in our house as DD 9 had it first. So I guess our viral load was higher.

Dh tested positive on dd day 6. I tested positive on dd day 11. I think I was quite possibly fighting it for the whole time. (Felt a bit under the weather the whole week). But once DH had it to, I’m guessing my viral load just increased so it got me in the end.

I’m going to assume that had we just ‘met friends for dinner’ (who had it) or something we would have been ok. But as it was in the house, there was no hiding from it. (We didn't isolate DD or anything. She’s 9. I wasn’t going to do that to her!).

Today is my first day out of isolation. But I’m still in bed. I have wfh this week. But have felt rotten - especially days 2-4. I was quite rough. Since then it’s like a really bad cold.

Now I am just exhausted.
