[Misc] Have you had Covid?

I’m immune
Well, no I’m not. I’m really not sure. I’ve never tested positive and I haven’t ever felt especially unwell with the known symptoms. So either I’ve been fortunate thus far or I’ve only had a mild case.

No, but I’ve shielded quite a bit.

Yes, right now. Caught it in Finland, confirmed by a PCR last Sunday.
It’s no picnic. So very tired 24/7 (I rarely get that), the cough, restricted breathing.
Avoid if you can, take care.

Have it at the moment. Double Jabbed which may have made it milder than some. Strangest thing was the taste or lack of it. Had a cookie and all I could taste was flour. Mouth still constantly dry like I'd been on the pi55 for days. Rough for a few days but nothing major. Just got to stick to the isolation rules I guess. Not gutted I missed the Wolves game though so could have been worse.
Is it PotG?

It's all a myth.
Hope you feel better soon, old chum

Good luck in your recovery.
I’d go for airport queues or aircraft as the likely conduit
My son got in on a lads night out in London, almost certainly as three of his mates who were there now have it.
Avoid nights out in London seems to be a good starting point
Not that I know of, but high % of asymptomatic cases so who knows

"Not that I know of" is best answer I can give. Certainly been exposed to it many times and been testing every week for a year and not caught it.

Thanks.
There was also a packed pizza/burger place we went to 3 times in Lapland, everyone escaping the -17C outside, for lunch.
We’ll never know, but so obvious in hindsight.

We are both double jabbed. My wife tested positive as she had cold symptoms but lost her sense of smell.
I also had a cold and lost sense of smell.
Nothing else. Now ok.
Not sure. I might have had it right at the start just before the first lockdown when they weren’t testing. I was ill with COVIDish symptoms, but maybe it was just a bad cold.

strong and stable with me, or...
We all had it in our household at the same time last year. Mainly mild symptoms, kids had loss of taste and smell for a while. I had 1 day of feeling really fatigued, but other than that we all recovered quickly. Not caught it since.
Yes, had it a month ago, wife and I both double jabbed but still got it. So did my 2 kids.
Not a nice exp for me. Only just getting over it now a month on. Taste only just returned, smell still not back.
Just getting better and had booster yesterday which has made me feel rubbish again!
I hope I don’t get it again.

Great.
Three of us went, the other 2 were boostered, me just double jabbed.
But my wife’s since got it from (I suspect), pcr confirmed.
