This is exactly the same for me. I was renowned in my family for never getting ill when everyone else was coughing and sneezing. Now I pick everything up, and colds don't last for a few days they take weeks to shift!
I have noticed that in my wife lately.
 
I had the first 2 then 2 boosters .
Absolutely still the same as before .
People say they now have less energy but could be explained by the fact they are getting older and that's what happens .

Seems it's happening to a lot of us, I've actually had people at work commenting on the charge and how often and long I know have colds etc

And now it's the turn of Long Covid

Sort of interesting, but it's rather blown apart by the detail at the end that the research sample came from a population of which 90% were vaccinated. You would obviously expect vaccinated people to be much less likely to suffer severe symptoms.

The fact that the follow up research was done via sending patients a text message and asking them about ongoing symptoms doesn't sound all that scientific either.

& every pharma company along with every person they employ or have employed, including any disgruntled ex employees, who may have a reason to want to whistleblow the conspiracy.

Michael Yeadon did - he whistleblew (?) that the pharmaceutical companies were manipulating data to overvalue the effectiveness of their vaccines to increase the sales to governments.

Michael Yeadon - arf - as he didn't work for a Pharma after 2017 I can't see how he was a whistle blower - nevertheless his views made him a hero of the conspiracy theory brigade - the whole industry says no conspiracy - one nutter says there is and the rest of the nutters make him their spiritual leader

He wasn’t a whistleblower, he hadn’t worked for a major pharmaceutical company for ten years and even then he wasn’t working on vaccines. He just became a voice for the anti-vax community.

Ok, so AstraZeneca didn't manipulate data about the effectiveness of the vaccine ?

Strange why many governments chose not to buy it then.

I don't know anything about pharmacology to have an opinion on him. I mentioned that one disgruntled former employee disputed data and went public about it.
 
I never mentioned the data, I just said the bloke you were putting forward as a whistleblower wasn’t a whistleblower.

It's always an argument over semantics with you, Lambretta. Squabbling over interpretation of specific words doesn't win or lose a discussion.

Seems he was also ridiculed back in 2021 for saying that masks would have very little impact and that some of the vaccines could have an impact on cardiac health in specific age groups. Strange.

Does a whistleblower have to be an employee, Charon?

Can it not be someone who is aware of fraudulent practises and goes public with it...
