I got infected with coronavirus. It is not the first time, though. Nonetheless, I feel this time it hit me stronger. There was a small wave of infections in Madrid for the last few weeks. I was exhausted as never before, and my muscles ached and cramped.

I thought: Fortunately, I am vaccinated. Otherwise, with this "new version" of Covid, I would be in serious trouble.

I will never understand anti-vaxxers. Do they wish to die from the coronavirus?

When the test marked that I was infected with coronavirus, I remembered all the people who sadly got infected before the vaccines were launched. What a complete tragedy the people suffered in 2020.

Good to know you're out of it and doing well.
It hit people differently. Many did not show obvious symptoms that they have covid.

Exactly. My granny is 91 years old, and it seemed that the covid didn't even approximate to her. It is crazy how this virus works. Hopefully, we live in a very modern era, and scientists can overcome this virus quickly.
