Small potatoes for big Pharma who focus on high prices for prescription items, but I notice some of them are now getting into the fantasy market.
(I do take B12, but that's because I had a B12 deficiency proven on testing early this year.)

I have read plenty of doctors' advice recommending Panadol and ibuprofen so if you were attempting to disparage pharmacy advice; it was misdirected.
As a matter of fact, SA Health do, and (I know its difficult to believe sometimes) they have doctors in there

Also, I think I have misinterpreted your labelling of the value of vitamins as a "fantasy" when you take B12. Sounds like a contradiction. The medical world has done a complete turn around on the benefits of vitamins in the past 20 years. It's much better to help your body's natural systems than having to get shit stuck in you or parts cut out which is where doctors make their money

Diary of Covid+ Unvaccinated Person

Day 1: Sunday
Started feeling chills in the afternoon
RAT test negative
Progressively worsened until I went to bed around 11pm
Took Panadol
Fever and chills all night

Day 2: Monday
Woke up with fever, chills and aches
No loss of taste or smell
Took Panadol & Nurofen, vitamins & aqueous magnesia + ascorbic acid (magnascorb)
Slept til 2pm
RAT test negative (so I assumed I had the flu not specifically C-19)
Still had fever, chills and joint & muscle aches
Interesting that the aches were mainly in old sporting injuries (which is a bit of a misnomer (like covid deaths) because most of my sporting injuries occured "with" sport not because "of" sport (ie) after sport activities
Reduced appetite
Upped the Nurofen dose because of the muscle pains

Day 3: Tuesday
PCR test in the morning
Fever, chills and joint & muscle aches subsiding until late afternoon when almost gone
Sore throat begins
No loss of taste or smell
Continue with Panadol & Nurofen, vitamins, magnascorb + add in gargling Betadine
Positive PCR test comes back
RAT test positive now
Mrs Jimmy makes a high chilli hot dinner that canes the throat but, lo and behold, the sore throat disappears a few hours. Covid must not like Capsaicin

Day 4: Wednesday
Better night sleep but still have sore throat
No pains, fever or chills
No loss of taste or smell
Continue with Panadol & Nurofen, vitamins, magnascorb + Betadine
Sore throat only symptom - not good but not the worst I've had
Start work from home after lunch
Sore through down to 10% by 11pm

Day 5: Thursday
12 hours sleep
No loss of taste or smell
No more sore throat or other symptoms other than I know I'll need a sleep this afternoon
Continue with Panadol & Nurofen, vitamins, magnascorb + Betadine
WFH all day

To top it off just now: Receive a phone call from SA Health with an offer to participate in their next human experiment because I'm unJabbed and C-19+. No thank you - I didn't have your first ineffectual snake oil; why would I go anywhere near your new one?

Glad i was vaccinated then.

my symptoms werent anywhere near that bad

Mrs Jimmy had a runny nose for 48 hours and that was it - no jabs for her
Jimmy Jnr was triple jabbed and had 5 days of hell
Everyone's different & it means nothing

Glad I've had the Vax, its either stopped me catching it despite being around hundreds of people with it (including the wife in the same bed) or made it so weak I didn't even know I had it!
Get 4 vaxxed everyone! Mad if you don't!

My 5g has improved too! But switching to Telstra might have something to do with that.

As I have always said - each to their own

I'm just glad my family didn't have to stand around my unvaccinated corpse saying to the doctor that they wished I had got the jab
The poor doctors must be exhausted from explaining to the families of the jabbed in hospital why it didn't work as promised

My 5G is $hite - its iPrimus & using Huawei so I've probably got half the State Security Ministry listening into me

I was thinking more of the vitamin pushing than the Panadol etc. though NSAIDS like ibuprofen can cause gastric erosion in some people.
I take B12 because I have a proven deficiency on blood testing due to an absorption problem. That is follow up to several IM doses, after which my levels slowly declined again.

Nobody needs vitamin and mineral supplements unless a blood test demonstrates there is that sort of problem, and excessive intake of some vitamins can cause toxicity. B6 for example has been established as a health risk, and excess mineral intake can damage the kidneys. Marginal D deficiency may occur in winter here, and year round in some less sunny environments, but huge doses are not entirely safe either. I saw a woman once with odd visual problems and low mood, and blood testing revealed very high levels of Vitamin A, which her Herbalist and Pharmacist had been encouraging her to buy and take!

Excessive intake of anything (including MRNA juice) can cause problems
I get proper medical on which, and how much, vitamins to take

I never take ibuprofen on an empty stomach

Picton just showing how much of a he really is

Health Minister Chris Picton urged more people to have these vaccinations.
“This not only helps reduce the risk of contracting Covid-19 and protects your loved ones but also the severity if you get it again,” he said.

Well one could argue that vaccinations have not helped reduce the risk of contracting CV19 - or protect your loved ones.

How many thousands of cases and deaths do you think we've have now if it didnt? Not sure why I'm arguing this anyway, deliberately stayed out of this crap for a reason.

Unless I'm Superman the vaccines do an amazing job.

We aren’t arguing it

You would have had it 10 times by now if it wasn't for the 3 jabs.

As for places of ill repute - yes you are more susceptible.
Dont forget it flies past Bunnings & Woolworths hunting you in the pub especially whilst you're drinking, standing up, singing, dancing or punting let alone looking at something suss.

I have only had it once but I assume you can’t catch it in Woolies owned pubs.

Woolies don't own any pubs anymore but if you're talking about ALH pubs everyone at my regular has had it, staff and customers, except for me!
Staff have been doing crazy hours to cover for others!
Was one of the first covid hotspots too!
But I was probably the only one that had had 4 jabs.
Same with my current work but once again I'm the only one with 4 jabs.
