    COVID STATE OF CALAMITY EXTENDED UNTIL SEPTEMBER 12, 2022.

    Will find the link later.

    It was a little while back thing is that having declared this they have given themselves permission and an expectation that it's going to go on that long.

    This probably mean continued quarantine for the next year.

    That's good Jim, you have in effect been boosted twice, your T-cell response got the biggest boost when you caught SARS-CoV-2 for real and given that it was probably Delta you will have learned how to make slightly different shaped antibodies than your original vaccine trained you for.

    The Pfizer booster will give your T-Cells another kick, none of this will stop you getting Omicron when it arrives (very different shaped spikes) but it should result is much milder symptoms than you experienced with Delta Covid, from what you reported that you had some degree of breathing difficulty you actually got it quite bad for someone who was vaccinated, Omicron should not be as hard on you although it is still wise to try to avoid getting it if at all possible but with Omicron that is going to be damn hard for anyone.

    That's good it's working, although if you had no side effects I would also say it was working but with side effects it's definitely doing something :D

    With my Moderna booster I had pretty much the same symptoms as you.
