[QUOTE="kingofnobbys, post: 1972278, member: 81934"] Sounds much like what my one house down neighbours have described wrt symptoms, got your test results back yet ? If not might worth getting hold of a pack of QuikCovidTests ( the ones that look like a pregnancy test and give a result in 15min ) from the local chemist ( do the chemists deliver there ? ) . In Israel , they are discovering that the efficacy of Pfizer wains with time , she maybe needs to ask the GP for a booster vax shot . [url=https://www.webmd.com/vaccines/covid-19-vaccine/news/20210728/pfizer-vaccine-protection-wanes-after-6-months-study-finds]https://www.webmd.com/vaccines/covid-19-vaccine/news/20210728/pfizer-vaccine-protection-wanes-after-6-months-study-finds[/url] Not sure about how Moderna vax efficacy changes with time ,similar class of vax as Pfizer , very likely wains with time too. Plus , being vaxxed does not = being immune , even fully vaxxed people can catch Delta and transmit it, though they are a lot less likely to end up in hospital , on a ventilator , or in their grave, but some break through cases do still die despite being perfectly fit & health & young despite being fully vaxxed. One week testing interval is not good enough, here the expert virologists and epidemiologists are recommending every other day AT LEAST for unvaxxed HCWs if the state govts don't mandated fully vaxxed status for all HCWs, all front line teachers, all front line essential workers and all process workers ( who cant work from home ). Can be highly infectious ( asymptomatically then symptomatically ) for the entire week and be a superspreader the entire week infecting dozens of people if not masking up the entire week. Mask mandates for all the above are here to stay for foreseeable future and for everyone else too, only visible guarantee you have , because people can and do lie about their vaxx status. My neighbours one house down have been given the all clear , so are now back at ( both essential workers = she's in HC , he's a postal worker ). BUT unfortunately the young lady across the street has taken a turn for the worse & was just taken away in an ambulance ( ambos in full hazmat and PPE gear ), sirens and cop excort, so I think she's going straight to the nearest ICU and she's in a bad way. She was discovered very sick by a mandatory home iso check team ( a cop & soldier ) who called the ambulance for her . She's only in her mid 40s !! ( works at local Coles supermarket at Charlestown Square as a checkout chick & fitness fanatic ( gogs , and goes to gym several times a week ) . Coles Charlestown Square is one of the local exposure sites from those 2 stupid girls from Sydney Uni who snuck to Newcastle by XPT to party and club and shop = the 2 who brought Delta to Newcastle ( we were Delta free til then ). So her entire shift from Coles were ordered into home iso last week (secondary contacts to these "young ladies") , tested positive for Delta yesterday & I spotted her gardening in her front yard yesterday so she was feeling OK then when we spoke ( with the street width between us ). We just had visit from a cop and soldier in PPE to ask if we'd had any contact with her. Fortunately no. Very nice cop and soldier offered us the hamper they were going to supply to her, when we told them we've been in voluntary home iso . We declined the hamper as our weekly shop will be here from Woolworths tomorrow , told them there are needier people who WILL BE DOING IT TOUGH who need the free hamper of essential more than we do.
