A+.
Never had it, but should I be more worried about it than I currently am?
Never heard of this blood type factor

Low grade fever for about 2 hours one night then felt sluggish the next day. Had 2 or 3 nights that I woke up with night sweats. Mild cough for a few days. If it was anything besides covid, I'd have been back to normal daily activity the 2nd day following the fever.



Sounds about what I am going thru right now awaiting a covid test

Don’t know my blood type

There is a theory that + blood types specifically A+ do worse with the Rona.

My understanding is that there is some research to suggest that Type O people for some unknown reason are more resistant to infection.

I haven't seen anything about them necessarily having a better outcome once infected, though. I'm open to being wrong about that if somebody has more info.

O+ here

Wife had it A+ (congestion and 4 day loss of taste/smell).

I had a headache for 2 days that acetaminophen helped but didn't get rid of it completely.

idk i kinda feel like there is something to the blood type thing.

Regardless we need to move on with our lives. If it wasn't for the media scare tactics we would have never known there was a "deadly" disease in our house and would have gone on with life as usual.

Heard a lot about the blood type hypothesis. I'm O+ as is my middle brother and my mom. None of us have had it. My youngest brother is AB and he's had it.

O- Never had it. Hope it stays away.

The hospital called one night when I had just got in very inebriated. They wanted me to come in and give blood due to a bad accident. My Dad drove me to town and they drew a pint.
