Who thinks they’ve already gotten over the COVID-19 virus?

Saw a doctor on ABC saying many people probably already had it this season and never knew it

I went to the doctor in January with a low grade fever, body aches, and a nagging cough. I tested negative for flu and the doc said I had some sort of virus and that he’d seen a bunch of people that week that had similar symptoms and tested negative for flu

It hung around about 5-7 days but I felt like shite.

What's this fever supposed to get up to?

I'm a teacher. We seemed to have more students out longer this year with "the flu". Maybe the virus has already swept through.

Wife and 7 y/o both went to doctor in late January with fever, cough, and respiratory issues, especially wife. Both tested negative for flu. I told her the other day they probably had corona and her eyes got as big as I’ve ever seen them

It's being dismissed as good potential news because if true, we're way further into this than thought and it's likely not as bad as it's being made out to be.

This guy. Whole family had the flu over Christmas. Then three weeks later I had a bad cough and mild fever for about 10 days. Thought it was just a residual from the flu. Maybe I had it. Don’t know.

I’ve had a nagging cough for a few days now and last night I had 101 fever. Now it’s a very low grade fever (98-99). Have the aches and sore throat too. Debating on going to urgent care today but I really don’t want to just add to the plethora of others in the same situation who are freaking out.

First week in Feb my wife and I had the same thing (fever, bad cough, etc.) she was diagnosed with bronchitis but I have thought maybe we already had it. Idk though, all the symptoms are so similar.

I had flu Type A in October then what I thought was dry bronchitis in late November. It stayed with me until Christmas.

Was sick from December 28 to Feb 3. Worst I’ve ever felt, damn near choked to death in my sleep when I finally coughed up whatever the frick was in my lungs. Felt like I was drowning. After that I began getting better...

Can’t confirm, but highly suspect it.

I don’t think aches are a common symptom with Covid, not sure about sore throat. Sounds like flu but who the frick knows unless you get tested. I don’t blame you for not going to dr though.

Pretty sure I had it mid-January. Terrible fever/chills for about 24 hours (or less) then three weeks of feeling sluggish, headaches, coughing up mucus. I'd wake up every morning feeling like my throat was completely dried out and hack up big chunks of mucus.

I didn't run much of a fever, so maybe not, but I give myself about a 1/3 chance that I had it about 2 1/2 months ago.

A few coworkers had these symptoms late February early March, they got tested and it wasn't the flu.

I got pretty sick for a couple days in November, and then had this nagging cough with mucous for like 4 weeks.

Don’t think it was covid19 because that’s about the same time some gnarly dude in Wuhan ate a bat and became patient zero.
