Considering that contact/surface infection is very rare and if you are wiping down machines before/after use, I think it would be pretty rare to be infected as long as you are not working out nut to butt with other people.

The COVID vaccination doesnt prevent you from getting COVID. It only reduces the symptoms. You very well could have gotten it, were asymptomatic, and spread it all over the place. Unless you are getting regular testing, you dont know if youre infected or not. Please discontinue from spreading false information about the pandemic or I will have the moderators remove your post.

When was your first shot? For Pfizer, I believe 15 weeks is the upper limit, so if it was less than four months ago, you're probably okay.

I didn't get vaccinated until recently and I changed nothing about the way I lived. Went to gyms, went to restaurants A LOT, and basically lived my life as normal... and I also never got covid. I also know multiple people that are still unvaccinated that work in restaurants and have been working non stop through all this and have never gotten it.

If you're going to use anecdotal evidence then so will I

Um thats a pretty basic understanding of how vaccines work. You can still get/come in contact with the virus, but your body is able to fight it off without causing too great of an immune response to cause you to have symptoms. I thought you were smarter than this adjl.

A claim like "the vaccine doesn't prevent you from getting covid" is an empirical statement. Empirical statements describe something that can be measured. If you're going to make an empirical statement, you should be providing the measurements you're describing, not falling back on concepts that sound consistent with what you said. So where are the measurements?

Surprised I haven't caught it with going to bars, clubs, pubs and busy supermarkets. Sure it's far less likely for me to catch it now as I'm fully vaccinated but still.

First weekend of August and it was Pfizer. Shit, I thought the window was a lot smaller than that. Guess I will get one after work.

Doing some more digging, I'm seeing some suggestion that it might be more like 6, but either way, you're good. You need to wait at least 3 weeks between doses anyway, so last weekend would have been the earliest you could have had it. You don't have to worry about waiting this long at all.

Regular physical exercising balanced with sufficient recovery only has health benefits.
Additionally, physical activity boosts the immune system so its possible that it also boosts the vaccine effect in some way but I dont have any scientific proof to support this.

Not saying the Vaccine didnt help, TC...

but in the early days of the virus they found that those that are fit, and not obese were asymptotic when infected. They basically beat out the virus easily.

Probably smart, given that delta is affecting younger and healthier people. There's so much random shit being said in this topic and nearly all of it wrong. But you, my boi, are SMRT smart.

I haven't been vaccinated, and work sends notifications all the time saying someone at my site has it, and when they were there last. for the first several months they would send out at least 4 notifications a month.

Yup.

Weekly COVID-19associated hospitalization rates among children and adolescents rose nearly five-fold during late Junemid-August 2021, coinciding with increased circulation of the highly transmissible SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant. The proportions of hospitalized children and adolescents with severe disease were similar before and during the period of Delta predominance. Hospitalization rates were 10 times higher among unvaccinated than among fully vaccinated adolescents.

I have an appointment to get my second dose of Pfizer next week, so I was hoping to avoid Covid for just a little while longer, but I was just told today that my supervisor who I've been in close contact with tested positive. FML.

I don't mind what happens to me if I do get Covid, but I hope I don't unintentionally spread it to others. Especially my pregnant significant other...

Why yes, Clench's personal experience is indeed pretty meaningless compared to the reams upon reams of data that happen support the same conclusion. His personal experience should not convince you of that conclusion any more so than your personal experience should convince you of the opposite conclusion. That conclusion can be considered valid not because Clench experienced it, but because of the unprecedented rigour that's gone into reaching and affirming it.

You can if you want, but I prefer not to let people spread misinformation and post bad science unchallenged.

I don't think there's any reason to infer a causal link there. There are plenty of reasons to block/ignore somebody that don't include being wrong. Being right and getting tired of being "challenged" with the same nonsense over and over again from somebody who just won't listen to anything they don't already believe, for example.
