Should I purposely get infected with COVID?

[nobody123456789]

I will be flying overseas later this year and need to take several mandatory COVID tests in the weeks before my flight. If I test positive I can't board the plane. I've been vaccinated 3 times and have never been infected with COVID before. I am not eligible for a 4th dose. I think that about 2 months before my flight I should get infected on purpose to boost my immune system, minimizing the risk that I test positive in the weeks before I fly.

I wouldn't worry. Whatever happens, it's life.

 

[Daggot]

No

They still don't know the long term effects so it's best not to get it if possible

 

[JuanMena]

Yes, absolutely.

Tell us how it went for you.

I'll be waiting

I had covid last year and I am still suffereing effects. I'm still exhausted all the time no matter how much sleep I get. I also have covid nails.

My opinion is that that thinking it's wise to purposefully get infected is pretty stupid. No. Don't do it.

No

 

[The Catboy]

Don’t, even vaccinated it’s an unpleasant experience.

Actively trying to get sick seems rather misguided
