Check in thread if you’re less than 50% sure you’ve gotten the Covid yet?

I think I would put myself in this category. One time I had diarrhea and didn’t feel good for a day so other than that, I don’t believe I’ve been symptomatic of anything.

I got the antibody test after hearing about it it recently on OT. I’m fairly confident now I haven’t gotten COVID.

Regardless, getting the shot during my scheduled time tomorrow. It was more for my own curiosity

100% sure I haven't been symptomatic. As for having it and being asymptomatic, I have no clue.

I haven't had it, been going to a lot of concerts the last couple of months pretty surprised I haven't gotten it. The vaccine works I guess.

I had the runs for a week back in October. Got pink eye in one eye. Felt bad for two days. Got a steroid shot and eye drops and that’s been it.
I am/was/have been on Vitamin D for a year (not bc of Covid) not sure if that matters.
My wife and daughter both had it for sure. I didn’t change any habits whatsoever. I did not get it.

I’ve never had any symptoms but if it is what they say from a contagious standpoint...I’ve been to the office and field more than anyone in our office, still play golf 3 times a week, go to the gym 3-4 days a week, and wife works at a restaurant. I only wear a mask when there is absolutely no way to get around it and only wash my hands when I shower. That’s about it.

That makes me believe it’s not what they say it is.

We haven’t had it. My daughter was tested last week (for lsu) my husband has been close to a few people at work who have had it, and he keeps testing negative

I wasn’t worried about the bullshite but when I lost my taste and smell my wife rode my arse about getting tested so I know for sure I had it. I was tired and had the sniffles.

The only time I’ve called in sick In the last 5 years or so was March 2020 right when the shite was hitting the fan in NYC. It was right after I got back from a conference in… NYC. Of course masks and mass testing were just a dot in Fauci’s eye at that point so it was likely a super spreader event par excellence.

That makes me wonder but I’m still saying less than 50% sure I’ve had it. But I remember the chills and coughing and wife wondering.

I’m certain I got it super early in February 2020 after going to a casino. Had a fever and bed shits for about three days. That was before covid was even a thing but I’m pretty sure that was it.

Got delta a couple weeks ago, had a sore throat and strangely, collarbone pain on both sides. Never had collarbone pain in my life so I’m assuming that was it.

O+, 40 yo, slim, in shape, not been "down and out sick" in the last year 6 months+. Why a "vaccine" that doesn't prevent me from the virus or spreading it, yet, some company's mandates will punish those unvaccinated?

But, only one is "approved". What about all of the J&J's and Moderna's vaccine takers?

No vax here. Not yet anyhow.


I think I may have had it back in December. Not sure. A day or so of fever, ibuprofen took care of fever. Felt blah. But nothing to stop me from much.

I lost taste and smell for two weeks in Feb, not a single other symptom. Not sure. No vax.

Seems like if you lost taste and smell then a test would be unnecessary.

Everyone I know that had it lost their sense of smell and taste for a while, but that was the only thing they all had in common.

11 year old has it right now. He kind of had some congestion, but he's perfectly fine. Nothing for the rest of us. I took a test at home for fun, negative. His was instant positive. I've had 4 negative antibody tests from giving blood the past year, but they stopped that in May so no result off of my July donation. Red cross blows, I'm switching to this new place that has more fun perks and better snacks.
