A very cool necklace...Are you saying you’ve had clovid two times, if so what were the symptoms the second time around...My wife got the vaccine a week ago, slight reaction, 105 fever, throwing up for one day, ok now, I chose not to get it, I probably should have, it was a nursing home situation...I wish you well monster.
I have had pneumonia twice this year spent 5 days in ICU the first time back in March with double pneumonia. This time it's just in the left side. I take the flu shot every year, doctor says it's because I have COPD, I work 65-70 hrs a week in all types of weather. Getting old is not for sissies, on the covid shot my doctor is the only infectious disease Doctor around an he advised me to wait on that shot to see the side effects it has, but wants me to get the pneumonia shot. I should retire but I like to work.I’d suggest getting the annual influenza vaccine. It seems to have a pretty good safety record and probably works some of the time. With that said, an elderly neighbor had a sever reaction to this year’s vaccine (not Covid-19). He survived with hospital treatment. It was the first time he had gotten one. Influenza deaths are on a very steady decline since 2000, which indicates to me that the vaccines are getting better.
The Covid-19 vaccine is something a little different.
I’d suggest talking with your doctor about it.
If you have a good doctor, they can give you solid advice that should be given serious consideration.
Getting it could mean the difference in being able to visit your wife or not?
Monsterrack, maybe you never fully recovered from the first lung infection?
That necklace is interesting. How did you happen across it?

On the necklace I bought them from a friend in Ohio who bought them from a collector in Oklahoma.
I got my flu shot today, I’ll get the clovid shot when it’s available.Love that necklace and all the best for your continued recovery.
My wifes flu vaccine last year kept her symptoms of "type A" flu infection limited to about 2-3 days as opposed to 2-4 weeks. She had a rapid flu test back in early Feb. about 3 days before Covid hit the fan.
