From the article:
What does a "mild" case of COVID-19 feel like?
In my case, it was worse than expected, but in the parlance of public health, it was "mild," meaning I didn't end up in the hospital or require oxygen.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
From physicians in my family...breakthrough cases are not rare, they are virtually never serious enough for someone to need oxygen or a ventilator UNLESS you have another underlying condition.
This disease isn't going away, even if EVERYONE is vaccinated. It eventually will be like the flu with seasonal outbreaks.
