So, is anyone here positive with regards to CoViD-19?

[Proteus_MST]

I am now, since Monday.
Seems like chances aren't all too low that I will survive.
Symptomes in my case are similar to an Influenza, with feeling weak/sick, having a sore throat and an increased mucus generation in throat and nose.
Fortunately no negative impact on my sense of smell.

Seems like I am lucky to have so few symptomes (so far), hope it doesn't get worse.
And afterwards I will have an increased protection against a reinfection again (combined with my vaccination and booster shot)

Anyone else who has experienced (or currently does experience) a CoViD-19 infection?

Omicron, I take it?

I was presumably exposed at some point over the past couple of years, but I've never felt especially sick or tested positive.

[Jon Miller]

So far we haven't tested positive. We have all gotten colds a few times (while testing negative), and there have been times where we all didn't feel sick and we didn't test. Two of the cases were earlier this year, in the age of Omicron. Both times not only did we do many rapid tests but also did the PCR tests. All negative, but I really thought we had gotten it.

i would bet most of us have had covid 19 at some point. i have been 'sick' 2 times in the last 2 years. about a year ago for 9 long days. it was a good one... but recovered and if covid 19 did not exist i would say i had the flu - real bad. nothing more.

i've had Pubic lice (crabs) twice. Navy times. one time REAL bad. they were chopping down pubes like rain forest clearing. buildings were going up... a highway was being built. the doc just gives you some cream... clears up - as far as i can remember - in a couple of days. it was kinda cool. lots of action near the castle, naples. still... i would rather get covid.

99% i had omicron back in January when i was in Argentina.

I was already double-vaccinated at the time, and only had a slight headache and a bit of fever (got to 38, but it went down with ibuprofen). Took one ibuprofen, and the following day I was fine, only had a sore throat for two or three days.

yeah, my flu lasted 9 days... but i didnt get the experimental shot. vaccine - a substance used to stimulate the production of antibodies and provide immunity against one or several diseases. i wouldnt call covid a disease. i wouldnt call the shot a vaccine.

My family thought so several times, but all tests have been negative.

[BeBMan]

So far all tests negative for me too

Then you're stupid

just today - Fauci: US is 'certainly' out of the 'pandemic phase'. well well well... seems the midterms are all people needed. i would bet most people did not need that shot. and no one would have noticed a difference. but just because you dont agree with me does not make you stupid.

Of course not. I don't call you stupid because I disagree with you, I call you stupid because you disagree with reality.

I am definitely glad to have received the 2 Vaccne shots as well as the Booster shot.

Yes, it doesn't grant you immunity from Omikron but I wouldn't like to know how worse my current Infection would affect me without the shots.
(not to forget the higher chances to get CoViD-19 earlier without the vaccination ... unless you are living without human contact)

[Jon Miller]

I am hoping that there are improved versions of the vaccine available in time for my 4th shot. I would prefer either one of the improved versions of Pfizer or Moderna for my 4th shot or some different vector like Novovax.

I would expect it to be a good idea sometime around June or July.

(I have 2 doses of Moderna and 1 of J&J (booster), I consider the vector of Moderna and Pfizer to be equivalent.)

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

I've had J&J, and two Pfizer boosters...
