    Wasn’t that the case for all the COVID strains before?

    I’ve always had a very sore throat like nothing else before, and that was with vaccination. I don’t want to know how horrible this shit disease is without it

      The couple of times I’ve had it, last year and I think the year before, it felt very similar to strep. Not like razor blades, but like my throat was so swollen, it was difficult and painful to swallow anything, including my own saliva. Biggest difference was that the Covid made me super tired, as well.

      I know it was a common symptom of the Delta variant in late 21/22. That’s what I caught and it felt like I was gargling broken glass
