Heads up - I got COVID at The National

Based on the timing of my symptoms, I almost certainly got it at the show or the Hilton or Gibson's. I am vaccinated and I was not wearing a mask. If you were there and have any symptoms at all, get yourself tested.

No such details will spoil my plans...

    Just curious, which vaccine did you get? Are your symptoms very minor? I certainly hope so.

    There certainly were not many mask wearers at the national…i would hav thought the mayor of Rosemont would have made that a condition…..but alas. I hope you are feeling ok and the symptoms are minor.

    If my post was 'quasi-political' at least a couple of others in this thread are as well. Yet, they remain.

    Are your symptoms mild? I was under the impression that the vaccine made the covid symptoms more mild like a common cold instead of the flu.

    That was precisely the reason I decided not to go to the National.

    That and high prices are a deterrent for me.

    That is exactly what he was saying. He just wanted everyone to keep an eye out if you develop any symptoms. Nothing more and nothing less.

  • Thank you for sharing and caring about others. I hope that you get thru it quickly and without any lingering effects. I do find it interesting that this subject is so touchy politically. Get better soon AllanAllan

    You are very sensitive. That's cool

    Mine got zapped as well.

    I have to agree with Todd now that I take a look at it. It was going to head south and the thread needed to stay in play. It's important.

    I agree. I mod the biggest Detroit Lions fan board on the net (thank you in advance for your prayers and condolences, it is 50% Lions and 50% sardonic Schaudenfreude).

    Vaccines and COVID while incredibly relevant topics to the NFL right now, devolve into POP TARTs at warp10 and we simply blast everything associated and warn users. Banned a few that just can't understand that There Are Eleventy Jillion Other Outlets To Talk About That Topic, and it just gets in the way of what We Talk About, so, Mjolnir Happens.

    Nice work mods.

    Hope you get well soon, OP and thanks for the heads up for others.

  • that sucks, hope you feel better! thanks for posting for the awareness to the many people who were there
