I’m O+, been vaccinated on top of being antisocial.

That said, I think I had Covid 6 months before it became a thing. Three trips to the doctor in 3 weeks for the worst case of bronchitis I have ever had. Thought I would cough up a lung and I’ve never been a smoker. Doc tried 3 diff antibiotics in that time. On last visit, he said he had no idea what I had, wasn’t flu, wasn’t pneumonia. It was just an unknown respiratory infection, and he was seeing more people every day with the same symptoms. 3 weeks to start feeling better, another month to recover completely. But I’ve never tested positive for Covid.

I am another who thinks they had it two weeks before the shutdown in March of 2020. I’ve been all around covid people since and not even a sniffle. But I am also one who has only gotten the flu about 4 times in 43 years. Not O+ though. I do take D3 daily so maybe that helps.

I have taken no measures to not get it.

Honest answer?

Fairly clean highly acidic diet coupled with germanic type O blood line.

Eta:

These foods are eaten every week no matter what, anything else is variety.

2lbs baby tomatoes
Gallon of whole milk
2lbs of strawberries
140oz of black coffee
3 onions
Probably a cup of minced garlic
6 bell peppers
36 eggs
5lbs of potatoes or rice
2lbs of baby carrots
5lbs of greens
2 cases of water
12 oz of black berries
7 cans of V8
A shite ton of olive oil and balsamic vinegar
3lbs of either beef bison, chicken thighs, or sausage
Canned green beans
Canned corn

I've basically eaten the same shite for the last 10 years with variety tossed in maybe two days a week.

I have no clue why my family and I haven’t gotten it.

Would like to keep it that way…

The government saved us. Without them who would have told us “two weeks to flatten the curve” and without them who would leave guns for terrorists?

I assume most people who “haven’t contracted” covid just had it and it didn’t affect them.

That’s what I assume for myself at least. I lived in a house with my wife who had covid, been around a lot of people who tested positive within the next day or 2. Think pretty much everyone has had covid now, it’s just whether it actually made you sick or not.

There is absolutely nothing you can do to keep from being exposed to the virus. Wash your hands, take your vitamins (Elemental Zinc 25mg 1 time a day Vitamin D3 5000iu 1 time a day Vitamin C 1000mg 1 time a day Quercetin 500mg 1 time a day). Lose weight and get plenty of sun.

The virus is gonna virus and it will infect everyone.

I did put an ultraviolet light in the AC plenum and it seems to have helped.

Simple. Because I haven’t gone out and gotten a COVID test for every little sniffle I have experienced the past 18 months.

We’re been working from home for a year and a half, but even before that, I rarely caught a cold and I’ve never had the flu. (I’ve taken flu shots 3 times). We still go out, we just go early. We tend to grocery shop at off-hours. I use hand sanitizer after we’ve been out in public, and take Vitamins C, D and zinc. I could be deadly wrong, but if the common cold is often a coronavirus and I rarely catch them, maybe my immune system can take care of it.

I’ve gotten sick three times in the last year and never had a fever. Blown Eardrum, massive tonsils, hemorrhoids (seriously). Supposedly it’s my GERD flaring up.

It really isn't that prevalent, despite the fear mongering. Typically no more than 3%, usually closer to 1% of the population is sick at any given time. So odds of being exposed are minimal for most of us.

It isn't nearly as contagious as they want you to believe it is.
