From emphysema which is bad enough but both my wife and I caught 'Covid 19', the flu, in the very last few days of 2019. We never got vaccinated, and I was laid off work with the threat of being fired if I didn’t get the shot. Anybody at work that was over 60 that refused would be terminated. I was just beginning to suffer from emphysema and I knew I wouldn’t be able to work much longer. So I was out of work, and being paid approximately 25% of my regular pay, their plan to give us time to think our decision over and come to our senses. I had done a little research on Covid but you had to hunt hard to find information about it in 2019. When it first started affecting us, my doctor at the time, great doctor, old school, didn’t know exactly what we, my wife and I, had but said it was a new flu virus beginning to show up and it was pretty bad.
They had tried repeatedly to get me to quit but I was eventually given a deadline at work to get the shot and finally they fired us. I had been out of work and had filed for disability for over a year then.
Luckily Gov. DeSantis came out with the Covid/Work bill, can’t remember the actual name. My employer had to give me back pay for the 18 months~ that I wasn’t allowed to work. About 1 1/2 years later my disability was approved.
Having said all that, I’m SO GLAD I got the Coronavirus because about the time I was laid off from work and didn’t spend any time around very many people they started telling me about a much worse variety of the flu … Carlsbergvirus.
