Thanks. I was just trying to describe my latest coronavirus vaccine booster. I’d rather intentionally build the antibodies than deal with the virus.

Good one!! Great perspective.
Are you writing from experience? Have you caught it?

Writing from experience. I got another booster vaccine so today I’m making antibodies. It’s exhausting.

Holy moly – “fever builds antibodies” – Indeed it does.

Nothing like as strong, concise, to the point, shiver-making as yours.
Holy moly Bartholomew – few words, much meaning, again.
Being an old person I’m due to get my fourth jab – takes me out for the best part of two weeks – but I know it to be worth it.

Thanks! I guess I’m fortunate to just lose a day to the fever. (That’s why I took the jab on Thursday so I wouldn’t miss any of the weekend.)
