I'm pretty sure we've all had covid at some point.

Before it hit the news, I had mild issues breathing for a few weeks, runny nose, and just felt like ****. My kids seemed to have a few symptoms of something around that time, and my girlfriend said there's a virus going around that they don't know what it is. She's a teacher. Kids tested negative for flu and they sent them home saying it'll probably pass in a few days.

Next thing I know covid hits, and none of us have had any issues.

Weird.

Depends on what test he took. The PCR has a lot of false positives.

We had the same thing happen in February. I felt like I had been hit by a truck one morning with shortness of breath and cough. One rough day and a night of bourbon the next one and it was gone. The rest of the house got it and was in the bed a few days. All flu tests were negative and one of the ladies doing the swab told my daughter she could of sworn she had the flu. Oh well, we have none gotten it so far and hopefully I can get the shot before we do. Would hate to pack it in on my high risk parents.

Did the same thing around the same time. Whole family sick. My youngest even ended up with mild pneumonia which cleared fast. I had the mildest symptoms with low fever one night, lingering cough and loss of smell and taste for 4-5 days. Bourbon with some honey fixed me. All flu & strep test negative. Told unknown respiratory virus. Antibody test later on after Covid became prevalent was positive. Been around several positive people since and not gotten it since so no doubt that’s what we had. It’s been around since before anyone realized.

Well I wouldn't wish this stuff on anyone , so get well soon Dan .

Don't wish any virus on anyone. I've had the flu so bad I couldn't get out of bed for 2 weeks, strep which knocked me out for a good while, pneumonia which really kicked my butt...and I've had covid. Can't sit here and say I wish any of those on anyone. Apparently covid is the only one that counts though...

Considering we track covid far more closely than any virus in history, it makes me wonder how bad H1N1 and a number of other viruses really were. Did those also have asymptomatic cases and very mild cases where millions of people just didn't get tested? Were there thousands of people who died without anyone knowing they had it? So many questions...

You can't go to a hospital anymore with getting a covid test, and if you die while having covid...covid death. I wonder how bad previous virus spreads were if they were tracked using the same standards...

I just had it and it’s not the automatic death sentence many want to make it out to be. Tired, no smell or taste... No big deal. The younger they are the more likely they not even know they have it. It’s been overplayed as a plague of biblical proportions.

Hope you recover fully. (From another old guy!)
I think I had it back in late Feb/March. Severe cough, mild fever, severe fatigue. Doctor prescribed three rounds of antibiotics that didn’t help but never got tested for Covid. Later MRI showed I had bronchitis but no lung issues. It finally went away in June.

If you had someone who died from it you would think differently about it!!! But maybe not😩

No it is not an automatic death sentence and by April we will probably only lose twice as many people as we lost in WWII and that did not merit any news attention.

If you had it and it was no big deal, that doesn't prove that others don't die from it. Similarly, if you go outside and it's cold, that doesn't prove that global warming isn't real. Also, because you voted for someone, doesn't prove the other person didn't win. And, because the earth looks flat to you, doesn't prove it isn't round.

Considering most that died from it were very old and already sick with other things, like stage four cancer, they were going to be dead soon. Most of the deaths are as old or older than the life expectancy. The death rate for this year is nearly identical to other years. Most everyone that gets it has very few issues. You people are afraid of your shadow because someone told you to be. You won’t question authority because you’re a blind sheep too fkin stupid to think on your own.
