My mom is a nurse and the hardest thing during the pandemic for her was seeing patients and their family members not being able to visit or come inside the hospital.
My wife was 9 month pregnant when she got it. She was in the hospital in ICU for 8 days… i had to spend 8 days with my two year old while waiting for my wife to call or text me back at all hours of the day. I was just there hoping I would get a call or text… glad you guys are doing better now.
I was 28 at the time and was in the covid unit for 7 days before dying the first 6 days at home. The days on and off were really weird but hated it. I’ve been so weak and fatigue for over 6 months. Lost all my energy for a long time. Hope you guys get better quick!
You need to get right with our lord and savior. No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the LORD.
@@HSKFabrications I’ve actually died once or flat lined for 3 minutes before. I’ve had close close death encounters with my health problems. My breathing hole was tighter than a coffee straw.
Shocked Pikachu face with a mullet. The only thing even remotely shocking is that they haven't gotten themselves vaccinated yet, despite traveling everywhere. Stupidity is rampant...
you got a problem with freedom of choice? Also stop calling an experimental drug a vaccine, vaccines contain dead or dying bits of the virus so your body can see the virus and react to it to create immunity, not use some synthetic crap to try to trick your body into blocking the spike protein but not develop anti-bodies to kill the virus like a real vaccine does.
@@xRadicalLeftx False, regardless of FDA approval it's still not a vaccine, FDA approval doesn't make something a vaccine, also you might wanna read what the FDA actually did, the Approved the Pfizer Commernity, not J&J, not Pfizer Biontech (which is the Pfizer everyone has been jabbed with), those just got their EUA extended, an EUA extension is not approval.
@@DanielRichards644 You are the only one saying anything about freedom of choice. I'd think if a guy wanted to continue with some normalcy getting vaccinated would be a priority. Now they get to see if they experience any long term issues. I mean that was the end goal was it not? Hunker down till a vaccine was ready. Get everybody vaccinated and get on with life. Seemed pretty simple to me.
@@ShainAndrews the plan they sold us was "2 weeks to flatten the curve" to prevent hospitals from getting overwhelmed, NOT to stay in perpetual lockdown until the jab has been forced onto everyone. Getting the Jab to get thing to "return to normal" is not freedom of choice, it's the definition of coercion, REQUIRING something to be done to get back to normal is NOT A CHOICE, it's a violation of your basic HUMAN RIGHTS. Freedom of choice would be like when my SISTER who has an auto-immune disease talked to her doctor and the DOCTOR given her medical history advised against taking the vaccine because she would run the risk of being put into a months long state of anaphylactic shock (which has happened to her before), her doctor said "Why would you want to attack your immune system?" so given the risk/benefit assessment for her she made the choice to NOT take the "vaccine" and just return to normal life. Other people are free to do their own risk assessment of risk of vax side effects vs risk of covid infection and then make their own choice, but the second you introduce "getting back to normal", THATS NO CHOICE, THATS A HUMAN RIGHT BEING VIOLATED.
Brother, we had it last year. The worst I’ve ever been, lost a week of my life. Took a month to get back to 95%. Make sure you listen to your body and rest when you can. (Yeah like that will really happen) but glad to hear you’re feeling better!
Even to this day I have some effects from Covid. still. Like this general Brain Fogginess at times. It is a common thing after serious cases of covid which is interesting. But I am with you there when you say you lost a week of your life. I was bedridden for almost the whole week because I felt like death. It was terrible and I am only 22.
Feel you on the brain fog. The first couple weeks out of the hospital I felt disassociated from my body, like I didn't know who I was. I still drop words in the middle of conversation, like it will just slip an I can recall how to form the word. I know what I want to say but it's just not there. It's fustrating.
Friend spent nearly two weeks in the ICU and came within minutes of getting intubated, had she not expressed hunger and some anger at not being fed she'd have had a tube - they were keeping her off food so she wouldn't aspirate when they stuck it in her throat. Her spark and spirit got her through that but it was a long haul and now two months later still carries an oxygen bottle. Even she didn't have the worst of it and appears to have "just" lung damage. It's maddening to see so many people act like this is no big deal....
Had it at the end of February. Spent 5 days in the hospital. Couldn't keep food down. I'd take a bite of crackers an throw up, take a sip of water an throw up. Took me about 2 months just to be able to walk from one end of my house to the other without getting winded. ☹️
@@FurryWrecker911 yeah and just think, he’s listed as a “survivor”! Hope he gets well soon, this can really trash your lungs it seems. Thankfully the vaccine es seem to stop that when there’s a breakthrough. 🤞🏻
@@BLKMGK4 im afraid Cleetus was guilty of this , i unsubbed from his channel after he had a rant about how people just needed to go on about their lives and not worry about this. A very dangerous to say if you have millions of subs on youtube. Cleetus was my Favorite channel on utube until this point.
Good to hear yall are healthy, it hits everyone different. My grandmother is almost 80 and it barely did anything to her yet my neighbor who is barely in his forties with 3 kids was dead within 3 weeks of being diagnosed. A strange virus indeed
i like to consider other people's freedom before i start throwing mine around. i could get the virus and have no symptoms and pass it on to multiple people who might not be so lucky.
i had the bad version at 47, i was scared to go to sleep. every time i did i would wake up choking. just felt half dead.it took me 6 months to get my lung capacity back.
My friend is still recovering. If she’s just sitting still on the couch she doesn’t have to use the air hose. However about every 2mins or so she gasps like a fish out of water and it’s really scary. I asked her WTF and she told me it’s a catch-up breathe and isn’t voluntary. When your oxygen level drops it’s your body’s way of trying to get more oxygen, it’s terrifying to see her body just constantly fighting for air 😢
@@grabbymcpoosey614 N95 weren't super readily available until somewhat recently. If he took 6 months to recover he got sick pretty close to when vaccinations were just being offered and would've had to have been part of a medical staff to have gotten one that early. I think you're being a little bit too harsh and hopefully he's gotten vaxxed now that it's available and he's seen what it can do to a body...
Living your life vs. thinking about others and how you getting it again could spread it to others without even knowing. It's not all about you. It's also about others and keeping everyone safe.
LOL he’s already had it so he’s chances of getting it again is literally like getting struck by lightning twice because he has now the antibodies and there is study’s showing that when you catch Covid your anti bodies are high and you have a immunity to the virus
I hope it truly is over for you both. Many people started to feel better only to be knocked back a week or more later and ended up in the hospital. Not to mention the after affects of lung disfunction or heart problems. Be free, live free, but think about the people around you too. Did you go somewhere and get the recyclovir treatments?
@@GLOBAL-INTIFADA And it's almost like there were studies done to show that getting vaccinated would significantly reduce the danger of covid and pretty much end the pandemic. Lmao
I feel ya'... I'm in my 60's, caught it real early on, put me completely down and out for over 2 weeks, another couple weeks before I felt completely normal. Glad you guys are feelin' better.
A guy at my job got covid, he didn't believe in covid until he got it. They had him in a coma in the icu on a ventilator. Now after a month he is a big believer. That shit is just scary.
Nearly Kills you and you are saying you wouldn't change your actions - it is time for you to reevaluate. It may be that I am 30 years older than you, but I have worked as a medical chemist and I think so many people are underestimating the strength of a virus. Best wishes and Praying for quick recovery 💖☮
Well Covid is probably never going away so it's either live an as normal life as you can or hide in your house for the rest of your life. That said, I've pretty much chose the "hide in my house" route however I'm not social at all. I don't need to meet anyone I'll just stay home for the next 50 years or so, no big deal. Just order everything online and work from home.
@@atnfn or you can just get vaccinated and live your life , so many diesease in the last century have been almost eliminated due to vaccines, but for some reason we now have a vaccine for covid and some people are more scared of the vaccine than the virus
Complete opposite for me.. Had a few mild symptoms, that was it.. I think the problem is people are so in fear over what they say on TV, that people panic. In reality, you have a SUPER slim chance of having any life-threatening issues. When i caught the Fluu years back it was hell then too. Throwing up, was super congested, lost my senses, felt like death. But if you are relatively healthy and your immune system is functioning, you will get better.
Internet science; just because hundreds of thousands of people say "I didn't believe how bad it was until I got it", I'm still not convinced because they are not me.
I got it really bad as a 21 year old back in November, still don't have a sense of smell. It really does flip your world upside down. Super glad to see you guys doing better!
Yeah it’s crazy how it can even do that I’ve tried so many things to counter act it. But I run a paint and body shop so I actually have to be careful to not breath in all the chemicals kinda comes in clutch there 😂
@@nickevans2851 getting vaccinated doesn’t stop the germs from spreading stupid. It MIGHT would stop them from getting sick. They could still pass it on. Quit watching the news
@@TrueNewb but if you don’t catch it you don’t spread. Also the news has now updated that the vax doesn’t prevent against transmission of delta. I’d did against alpha.
@@nickevans2851 learn English before you call someone dumb. The vax does absolutely nothing to prevent spreading. It can "lessen" the symptoms. At least he knew he had it and quarantined immediately. Possibly and probably saving alot of people from getting it. Got the vax and don't know you're sick? You're way more likely to spread that shit. Probably infecting many...many people because you didn't know you had rona.
Gotta be SUPER careful when oxygen is involved. Regardless if it's a lung infection or covid, having low saturated oxygen messes you up quicker than you'd think.
You should have a conversation with your nurse friends that told you a while back that none of this was a big deal. I don't advocate for hiding under a rock but an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Please help use your platform to set a good example for the crowds.
@@kyletrump8025 he had a hard go of it as he said in the video. I'm 36 and lost a classmate that was the same age as me. I've also had friends that had very little symptoms. Statistics say these guys should be fine. It seems very hit or miss. Like I said above, don't hide under a rock but common sense prevention can go a long ways.
@@Kilolocks lol, 99% survival rate. Yea, being sick sucks, I don't want that shit either. But I'm not scared of it nor will I not live my life. Our Country has been destroyed because of it. That 1% is just not worth it to me I'm sorry
@@kyletrump8025 There’s countless people out there with that exact mindset, only to turn a 180 when they end up in the hospital. Dying may be relatively very low, but the chances of severe illness, hospitalization, long term internal organ damage, ending up with a massive hospital bill that leaves you in financial ruin without insurance is far, far higher than anything else contagious.
@@kyletrump8025 nobody ever thinks they can be in that small minority that gets real sick or even dies, yet over 600K American people have died from this shit.
I'm happy to see both of you doing ok. I had Rona and it wasn't too bad for me thankfully but I grew up with severe asthma and it's scary as shit to feel like you're drowning in your own lungs.
@@ES4406 I got lucky with it and was told by my sister who's a ER nurse no matter how shit you feel walk at least a mile a day. I don't know if that helped or not but she said if you just sit around it will settle in your chest and you will have a harder time beating it.
@@jasonm3040 we got it at DisneyWorld in Jan 2020. I almost died from asthma as a kid, but for the most part outgrew it. when I got it I could not taste or smell anything for two weeks and had mild asthma (took inhaler) I didnt know anything more It finally went away after two weeks. Its crazy how it effects each person differently. I have lost family and friends to this. I didnt change my life but we are aware and do alot of natural things in our diet and we still walk alot! Your sister is rigth! Thankyou for replying!
@@ES4406 It is crazy how much it is affecting different people. I thought Garrett would have it pretty easy since he's active and seems healthy. My asthma was really bad when I was growing up, pneumonia 13 times almost died 3 scared lungs and all but I spent most of my two weeks off rebuilding the fuel system on my truck. I guess it just goes to show that you never know what you're going to get from it.
Garrett my wife and I were pretty much like you and Maddie. She ended up with COVID and it took her life two weeks ago. Go get the shots and take care of yourself. God Bless brother!
No shit , I wont have any friends left by next year. One of my friends that died was a health food freak, and owned two health food stores for over 20yrs., totally against the vaccine. He thought his working out, and health food would be enough.
Yeah its no joke, both My parents are in icu rn. And have been down with covid for over 2 weeks. It was a shock for me my family. Gotta stay healthy and safe out there ppl
Praying for you both.I got covid last January.I was 53 at the time.was never so sick in my entire life bedridden for a week..I was too weak to even walk my dog..it's awful.
I've turned 20 this year, currently sitting with two vaccines, the second of which gave me a real bad fever (both pfizer). Considering how rough I was after my second jab I'm really glad to have some form of immunity against the actual deal. Nevertheless I'm glad yall are both through it and here's to the Ranger Danger!
Being double vaccinated is not a guarantee to "NOT GETTING THE VIRUS" , I've heard recently from a good friend here in Ireland , that got covid only last Monday, and she was after receiving two jabs of the Astra Zeneca
I’m in the same spot the first few days are the worst but have been drinking hot teas an havin soups non stop but currently can’t taste or smell anything honestly the worst part about covid hope y’all feel better soon tho
@@Conan13666 Experimental??? They've been working on SARS vaccines since the early 90s, that's why it was so easy to identify the strain & get working on the vaccine, especially since they got all the funding needed right away. That being said, I'm glad Garret and Maddy are okay.
That "natural vaccine" he is referring to is called your immune system. Once you beat a sickness or virus your body creates antibodies for that sickness. This is essentially the same as what the flu shot does. Far superior to non FDA approved mystery vaccines that the companies have zero liabilities if anything bad happens.
Boy I'm so happy to see you got better, was worried sick for you brotha. Caught it in March last year, first wave, t'was the mildest variant being the first one, and it was still a fucking hell. Got me that fancy mRNA vaccine as soon as I could, makes me feel safer knowing if I ever get it again it'll be mild. Don't wanna have chest pain for months again.
@@caseydman4651 I know, but as I said if I ever catch it again it’ll be milder. Vaccinated people get basically the sniffles from the delta variant. I still wash my hands and wear a mask indoors so I don’t pass it, don’t worry; I’m not an idiot.
@@manu_le_maboul you sound like a scared one that's for sure, you consume everything you're told and see on the TV. It's called programming. "it will be milder" lmfao imagine a vax so safe you have to be threatened to take it, for a virus so deadly you have to be tested to know if you have it. Mark of the beast, peace be with all you smooth brains that took the vax lol
@@caseydman4651 @Casey Dman you're really going to comment with that perspective on a video like this? If you are familiar with the channel, you know that Cleet is a genuine dude and gave his 2 cents on the virus. It's not just something that "you need to get tested to know if you have it". It is something to be respected because for some people, it's truly life changing. Read through the comments. I had it and went to the ER twice. I'm 28 and I'd say it's the sickest I've been in my entire life. Thank God I've since recovered but really dude, show some respect regardless of if you believe in it.
Glad you are both doing ok. I had COVID and it’s no fun but life goes on. You have the right attitude. Just use it as motivation to keep yourself healthy as possible. It’s no different than building a built race motor. You need the right stuff to keep it from blowing up. Same goes for your health!
I lost my dad on August 10th from COVID while we were working in Louisiana. It has taken me 8 days to drive the 1600 miles back home. We were perfectly fine for a year and a half and then boom gone, I miss him so much. The pain is so real I don’t wish this on my worst enemy.
Happy that you guys are recovering. Covid is no joke. It took me 21 days to feel 80% Then I had the long haul symptoms that I'm still fighting since last August. Stay safe! If you get long haul get the vaccine. My symptoms improved 3 weeks after the second one.
@@sillybirdy1994 vaccinate doesn’t prevent you from getting covid nor does it keep you from spreading you airhead. Only limits the symptoms you have. Other then that, it’s no different.

Put me down hard for 1 week. Fever then chills. 103 temp but freezing cold. Lost 15 lbs. Couldn't eat or even keep down water at one point. Best thing is orange flavored EMERGEN-C vitamin C packs mixed with 7-up. Helped tremendously. The cough was horrible. I drank pineapple juice to cure that. 2nd week I was normal but still quarantined. Feel better guys

Really happy to see you both getting better. Cletus, you are probably more influential to the viewers than any doctor or politician. Getting a vaccine isn't losing freedom. It isn't political. It would, to a very high percentage, stop a viewer from going through what you did. Sure masks help but the vaccine is the so important. It would be amazing if you'd at least tell people to check it out and make a decision for themselves. Something tells me you would have rather have gotten a vaccine and avoided what you went through. Use your influence for some good. It's not a loss of freedom to promote or get a vaccine. Quite the opposite.
as if he gives a crap about anyone else. WE can see clearly from his actions since. His version of freedom is clearly freedom from caring about anyone else. Poor Parker.
People seem to forget a “mild” case can still absolutely floor you for weeks. Anything that doesn’t hospitalise you is classed by mild. My friend still has symptoms a year after “recovering” from it.
It's like smoking. People know that there is a high chance it'll kill you, but people ignore it cause no way it'll happen to them. It's just how people are until it effects them personally or someone they love. I've heard a lot of about decreased lung capacity after recovering months and months later.
for sure!! my daughter had it twice before Oct. killed me seeing her like that. 12 then 13 now but she has effects to this day. Now the person that gave it to her the second time 30 yr old uncle is still on oxygen after 6 months in the hospital from oct to now.
@S Andy Theres more than enough factual proof out there contradicting everything in the narrative. This continues because people think they speak truth when in fact they perpetuate the lies which are spoon fed.
So happy you are both recovering. My wife and I had it last August and it kicked our butts. We are both 60+ so it took us a bit longer to recover. Losing our sense of smell and taste was probably the weirdest thing about it. Then the fatigue that followed was not fun either. Since my wife works at a veterans home we have both been very careful from the start of this pandemic but still caught it. I caught it first so I have to take the blame on this one! I totally agree that we all have to assess risks vs rewards when living our lives. There are common sense things that we can do to reduce risk but we all still need to live our lives the best we can.
So glad you are both in the mend! I know you aren’t able to give recommendations to your followers, but I don’t mind getting flamed. As a physician in the middle of all this terribleness, I fully recommend that even young healthy folks get vaccinated. It may not prevent the disease fully, but it is less likely to be so terrible. Be well everyone!!
@@edelio2743 it's got a lot more credibility than someone who's gained most of their education from a Facebook group and thinks that a Virus is influenced by politicians.
Glad both of you are OK and can't wait for more awesome videos! Don't change a thing, your channel is successful because you bust your ass and you inspire all your friends, coworkers and viewers to bust their asses doing what they love too! Don't let anyone tell you how to use your platform.
Hi Cleetus. Glad to see you are doing well. I know none of us want to get political, but vaccines shouldn’t be political. And I do wish you would have touched on the topic. If at any point during this you told friends/family you wish you would have gotten the vaccine, or told them they should get vaccinated, you should speak up and share that information with everyone. A lot of people here need to hear your story and understand why the vaccine is so important. Don’t be afraid to lose fans over it because they’ll probably still watch anyways. You have the power to save a lot of lives as I’m sure there are many in this community who think they are tough and don’t need no vaccine to handle covid. And you can see first hand it’s no joke. Best of luck in the rest of your recovery brother.
My sister is a nurse in the covid department and guess what the News tells you all the people in there are the ones that haven't taken the vaccine but really all the people in there 95% of them have gotten the vaccine and they still get sick and if there's so many different variants the vaccine only works for one type not for all the variants so where's your logic in it
My family and I just got back to work from covid. We were out for two weeks, and we all lost weight, we just had zero appetite the whole time. Which sucked because we needed to eat to recover. I'm glad y'all are doing well.
My wife and I have it right now (she’s fully vaccinated btw..). I had body aches for one day and that’s it. She’s can’t smell or taste, has constant headaches, runny nose, and mild fever.
@@MissionRestomod it was about 5 days, with my house being sick. That I tried to smell a bottle of bleach (because we were sanitizing the house) I couldn't smell a thing, but I still had taste.
I had the same crud a couple weeks ago, on oxygen, etc. Definitely crazy how hard it hits and how easily you get worn out. Glad y'all are on the upswing!
Exactly how I described it. You feel like you're getting better one day and then the next day you go back to feeling like absolute trash. This happened multiple times throughout my Covid illness. It was like a rollercoaster with a bunch of ups and downs, and my back ribs were killing me! I took a lot of heat soaking showers because it helped with my body aches, soreness and chills, and also used a heating pad in bed as well. Tylenol was my friend too. Absolute horrible experience! I'm glad you guys are feeling better!
It's people like you, young healthy individuals that put my life at risk. I'm an icu nurse, so I can't stay home. Please tell people to wear masks, to stay at home. They listen to you, not me. I'm going to die for this, but I'm going to make sure that I make a difference.
Honest question, are you vaccinated? If so, why are you still worried about getting it or having a bad time fighting it? That is the very reason many don't take the vaccine. If the vaccinated are still scared, then why take something so new, with little long term science? I've not taken it because of several autoimmune diseases (overactive immune system) and would most likely need 4-5 doses just for my body to learn what it needs. Honest questions. Thanks
You put your own life at risk, living in general, and working with Covid patients. No one gets out of this thing alive. So stop blaming others, and trying to guilt people into getting an EXPERIMENTAL vaccine that doesn't seem to work. Read the Nuremberg code. You have no right to pressure people into getting experimental anything, especially with anecdotal evidence. You're a nurse, not a doctor or virologist.
@@HeMan_420 Yes, you could still get it but the likelihood of having any serious issues is far less. My brother just got that ICU, no underlying health conditions, 38 years old. Almost took him.

I think there is a misconception amongst some young people that that its like the flu, ya know you dont get that sick, it can be deadly, no matter your age. So glad your feeling well, really missed your videos. Stay safe
There's also a lot of people who mistake a cold for a flu and never actually caught a genuine flu. The flu is very capable of knocking you on your ass for a week or so as well.
While it is a misconception for cases like this, a quick look at the number of people that have had covid with no significant issues also makes it just as much a misconception to think that this will be your outcome. The fact is that it effects all people differently, but for most people, it's mild.
My Grandfather taught my Dad everything about cars. My Dad in turn taught me how to wrench on cars. I hope to pass that knowledge onto my young son as he gets older.

You both are fortunate. Many are not as lucky. I hope either of you don't end up with 'long COVID', or long term cardiac/respiratory issues. The more this virus spreads, the higher probability for mutations, that could lead to this virus being more lethal. Do understand an individuals actions may impact many. Stay healthy, hope you guys both make a full recovery.
First, I'm glad that Cleeter and Madi are recovering. This community would miss you immensely. Continue to recover and stay safe, whatever choices you make. @@JamesEsau, sorry for the novel.......I'm not a biologist, geneticist, or epidemiologist. With that said keep Darwin's theory of evolution in mind on this subject. It's not that they mutate and there is a 50/50 that it gets weaker or stronger. In a majority of cases organisms pass on the most beneficial traits to the offspring. However in some cases the beneficial traits can also be a negative. Say in the case of the hummingbird....their high metabolism allows them to beat their wings as fast as they do, but the down side is that because of said metabolism, they now have to consume an egregious amount of nectar to maintain themselves (its a positive feedback loop of sorts). Eventually, it could lead to the hummingbirds downfall, especially if there is a shortage of food. However, another genetic mutation that could allow its body to more efficiently process the sugar and thereby allowing the bird to consume less to maintain themselves. Viruses are really no different, except in the way the virus reproduces. In the case of the Delta variant it has a genetic mutation that increases it's infectivity. Fortunately, it has not become more lethal thus far. but the potential is definitely there. Right now whether you listen to the talking heads, the CDC, your own doctor, Coast to Coast AM, etc, the best thing that can happen right now is for folks to get vaccinated. This will limit the viruses ability to reproduce, which will slow the spread, and thereby reduce the odds of a far more deadly strain from emerging. While yes, there are/will be breakthrough cases, the vaccine will have given your immune system the tools it needs to recognize the genetic signature for that virus, causing the body to create antibodies that will hunt down and destroy it with extreme prejudice. This should keep you out of the hospital, shorten the window that you are able to pass it on to others, ultimately help each other stay safe. I'm all about Freedom and choice, but keep in mind that this choice can have long lasting and far reaching consequences on yourself and others. And lets hope/pray that the next mutation makes the window in which the virus can infect so narrow, that it dies before it has the ability to mutate again. Stay safe man. 🙏😀
I had it back in October, it was 3 solid weeks before I thought I could go back to work and work a full day. The respiratory symptoms only lasted a couple days for me and weren't bad, but the fatigue was the worst. You get up, go make a sandwich, then need to take a nap before you can eat it. LOTS of water, vitamin C, Zinc, and stay away from NSAID pain relievers.
Most important is Vitamin D. You need at least 50 ng/ml blood level for a healthy immune and inflammatory response. Most adults are severely deficient (although Cleeter probably had good Vit D because he lives in Florida and he gets a lot of sun on his skin). Take at least 4000 iu/day. Zinc is important for your immune system, but it can't enter your cells without a zinc ionophore (a key to unlock the door on the cell membrane). Quercetin is a natural compound found in fruits, and it's a zinc ionophore. Studies have shown that it is helpful. Vit C is great also, but trace minerals like selenium, magnesium and potassium are important for immune health. Niacin (nicotinic acid) helps. NAC + Glycine (a.k.a. GlyNAC) can help. Melatonin at night (helps you sleep but it is also a powerful anti-inflammatory). See the covid19criticalcare for the FLCCC Alliance's prevention and treatment protocols.
Had the same experience. Covid rocked the shit out of me and my girlfriend. We were down for a full 14 days. And 3 of them were unbelievably dreadful. Glad you guys were able to pull through it
