Fact Check: Covid nimbus. Here's the symptom you need to know about that nobody's talking about. What's that? You haven't heard of COVID nimbus? Probably need to talk about that too. So let's get to it. Stick to the end. I'll talk a little bit about prevention. So COVID nimbus is the newest variant going on. It is NB. 1. 8. 1. Say that three times fast. And the unfortunate part about this is it looks like it's more contagious than other variants that we've had recently but it doesn't look so bad that it's going to wind you up necessarily in the hospital. But if you followed me at all you know that that's not necessarily the worst thing 00:32 that happens. You can still develop long COVID from any COVID infection that you get no matter how serious it is or not. But it has a gnarly symptom we have not really seen with COVID in the past. And it mimics other things that we see this tiny year so it's going to be even more important that you test for it when you start getting sick. And it's being associated with razor blades. I know it's not from when you pee so don't worry about that one. Don't go down that road. It's at being associated with the sensation of swallowing razor blades because it causes such a severe sore throat it is akin 01:06 to that sensation. And that can be a similar symptom to a lot of other things particularly things we see in kids like strep throat. Or in older kids things like mononucles. Which you also see surges in usually in summer. But prevention things seem to work the same as they've been working. So vaccinate and if you can get a booster and you haven't like in the last three to six months talk to your doctor about doing so. If you are at high risk and have autoimmune issues or autoimmune suppressants do like I did which is get monoclonal antibodies to protect you
