Back in the old Army, we had a battalion surgeon that thought that, out of the 852 men in the battalion, there was waaay too many soldiers going on sick call to get out of training. So, he started giving the peanut butter shot to soldiers that he thought were faking being sick. Within 2 days, the sick call numbers were cut in half. -

Yes, @Tcoat, I've told that story before, but, I'm running out of stories (that I can remember - ).

Mind you, you get this while you're at the very beginning of Basic Training, where you are required to sit a lot, run a lot, stand a lot, walk a lot, its horrible.

Heh I used to get growth hormone shots as a kid to the same spot. But it was more like just a bee sting.

Of course, that doesn't mean anything it could spike again next week.

Anecdotal here in Idaho...our numbers are down and its very noticable in the ER.

I am hoping we are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

Those testes injections are something else. When I got my vasectomy in my 20s the nurse intuitively walked over and held my hand for that.

What are you talking about? Half of those people are probably claiming they had it before it was a big deal, i.e. Nov. 2019. Or they were asymptomatic and probably had it.

The irony was not lost on me. I literally LOLed when I saw that in the article.
