I'm working on my 74th orbit, have high blood pressure and slightly overweight. Never wear a mask except for routine checkups at my Dr's office. No vaccines at all and there will be none. Routinely take D3 and vitamin C.
The wife and I both got colds recently but, out of an abundance of caution, treated them as if it were COVID (Horse paste, zinc, and an over-the-counter fever reducer.) Gone in three days. Your mileage may vary.

I've not gotten any of the vaccines. I am 65, have 3 heart stents, cysts on my spinal cord and some other chronic health issues. My thinking is why would I want to risk lowering my immune system by getting a vaccine that hasn't proven to prevent COVID or it's transmission? I believe I had COVID before COVID was actually widely known. For about a month or more I was just exhausted and really weak, had heart palpitations, a slightly elevated temperature off and on and could tell my body was fighting something. I drank hot ginger/peppermint tea every day, and increased my intake of C and D. Things I normally do when I feel like I might be getting the flu.
I've always taken a probiotic, multi-vitamin with zinc orotate, quercetin, aloe vera and Prelief (acid issues). I have on hand a higher dose of Vit. C., D3 and high dose of zinc picolotate if I become symptomatic. We have on hand ivermectin for Geronimo, I'm sure the dosage is minimal but we still have it available.
Now that COVID is known, I have an oxymeter, thermometer (of course) and a blood pressure cuff just to check our vitals.
So far so good. I know some will say I should be vaccinated, but, I just can't bring myself to do it.
I wear a mask to the docs and in the supermarkets where it is more crowded. Other than that, no mask. I carry hand sanitizer and use it like crazy and make sure I never touch my face until I can get home and wash my hands with soap and water.
