I've not posted about this but my double vax'ed son in NYC let a friend visit him ~8wks ago. The friend became very sick with what they first thought was flu but it was covid!! Yes my 34yo, up-to-then very healthy son became quite sick too. I'm in Virginia and couldn't help but his girlfriend/partner was there doing everything for him. He became too weak to text or talk but his Kate kept us informed.

I'm telling you all this because I know it's possible for young, healthy vaccinated men to recover from CoVid. The vaccine makes a huge difference in these breakthrough cases. Try to stay positive and help your family to not panic too much.

We're all wishing him a full recovery! Please keep us posted.


On edit: I feel for your daughter with two sick fellows to care for. I hope she's reached out to friends & in-laws too. And living in The City, either in Manhattan, Queens, or Brooklyn, at least she can get take-out & groceries delivered to her door. And if your son-in-law becomes too sick, he should consider being hospitalized. NYC hospitals are no longer as jammed as they were months ago.
