I'm very glad to hear you're doing well, Greg. I know this was a genuine concern for you based on our past conversations. You got this!We tested positive a week back, on Monday, complete surprise. I was administered Antibodies Thursday, with excellent results. Staying home, taking it very easy; Celia is doing OK, too.

Great to hear! That's how it was for me and the wifey. I could NOT go to the crapper, then walk back to my recliner, without being out of breath and wanting to just take a F'n nap! The wife and I relied on each other, she'd cook, I'd clean up. Laundry to do, I carried it, she set-up the washer/dryer(most was her stuff), when done, I'd fold and carry back up stairs. We're good on cleaning up after ourselves, so the house doesn't get all trashy. So...there's that. 4 to 5 weeks later, I told her, she could start doing the laundry againThank you all. The local hospital gave me good drugs (Monoclonal Antibody Infusion); we're laying low at home. The grand kids keep an eye on us and help when we need it.
Now, nearly two weeks later, I feel much better, as does Celia. Celia says we have about another week's worth of recovery, but I'm in no hurry. My overall feeling is mild exhaustion, weakness, and balance issues. I stay on the oxygen, help Celia where needed, and care for the three cats. I sleep as much as possible, and keep up with Netflix., Every day we eat a little more and try to stay hydrated. Elena has tested positive, but has little or no symptoms. Patrick is not infected, and lives in his room like a hermit. So far, so good. He helps us when we need it.
Meanwhile, I have a project in mind. I just took delivery of 2lb of Ramshot LRT, about as slow a powder as can be obtained. It is intended for overbore LR Tactical rounds. I want to use it for the 28" 260 with heavier bullets. Way back when I was shooting the 260 in the 24" factory Savage barrel, I was trying H-4831. Velocity was slower, but accuracy was quite good. If anybody has experience with these components, I'd be interested in hearing about it. If it's a bad idea, I can live with it.

PS, for similar bullet weights, charges in the Ramshot Pamphlet appear mildly similar to H-4350 and H-4831 . This is just going to have to go by ear, with VERY cautious pressure and load development testing. In essence, I can't really see any advantage from here, but the exercise could provide another useful propellant, and practice at load development.
Doc told me 30 days of recovery before I get back into any major activity. Have had to take it easy at work and around the house. But, now that I'm "out of the woods" I can function fairly regularly. Climbing stairs is a chore... haven't tried running yet...Thank you all. The local hospital gave me good drugs (Monoclonal Antibody Infusion); we're laying low at home.

Do not go gently into that good night!Got home, did 2 weeks isolation, then back in for Community Pneumonia., Seven days in bed, immobile buried in blankets on couch since Thursday. Very weak, This stuff is getting to be BS.
Today was first day I could more or less breathe. Working on conditioning, but at this point it's joke.
WILL NOT QUIT!

Hang in there, sir. I went through this shit pretty much the whole month of December. Sounds like you have a good attitude, which helps. For a lot of folks (me included) the mental toll was real as well. I am not a patient individual, and just had to adopt the ol one day at a time attitude. I started watching quite a few uplifting movies and for my apparently easily influenced mind, it worked.WILL NOT QUIT!
Of course you wont quit, youre a Jarhead and a tough old sack of s^*t.Got home, did 2 weeks isolation, then back in for Community Pneumonia., Seven days in bed, immobile buried in blankets on couch since Thursday. Very weak, This stuff is getting to be BS.

Add quercitin as well 1000 mgThis goes out to Greg and anyone else that has as even the slightest bit of sniffles.
Vitamin C, Zinc 1000:100 ratio (3x a day)... real vitamin C and real zinc, none of that multi vitamin crap.
For me, I have to break up the vitamin C when I eat otherwise it gives me an upset stomach, Upchuck and promptly lose any help the vitamin C provided
D3: Can't tell you the appropriate dosage on this as I've always got mine from the sun. If you're gonna go with sunlight version of D3, the sun must be at least 45゚ elevation.. why? The atmosphere attenuates the wavelength that causes D3. Below 45゚, wavelength of light has to travel through too much of the atmosphere and is thus attenuated to the point that D3 isn't created by the skin.
If you're feeling sluggish, add vitamin B12. You'll know when you've had enough B12 in your system cuz B12 has the added benefit for guys in creating erection so hard that you can beat somebody unconscious with. Yea, forget the little blue pill.
I've been following this same protocol for better than 20 years... I rarely get sick. And The Times I have, less than 48 hours later I feel like I'm on top of the world.
