Have you had Covid 19 yet?

[Baltar 846]

A somewhat macabre poll, only because I'm bored and curious.

[sir roger 6,002]

As I mentioned in the main covid thread I assumed I would have picked it up off the Mrs but recent medical papers suggest I only had an 18% chance.

I shared a bed with my mrs for one night with it. Spent about two days with her. Once I tested positive I was banished to the spare room for ten days. Food dropped off outside my door ,wearing a mask even to walk into the bathroom. She didn't catch it

I work in retail which is where I guess I caught it. It's just mad that maybe one small interaction (while I was masked up) is likely where I got it. Yet she can spend hours in a confined environment with me and not get it.

[Creator Supreme 1,069]

Not so far, only been tested once too!

[Kevin D 7,583]

I think I had it in March. Was out with people who tested positive for it, self-isolated for two weeks but never tested. I think I also got it again in the middle of September, but can't be sure.

[Poster 2,847]

Not sure, was told by the hospital that my symptoms could be down to 'long covid' and I've mainly recovered now. 

 

 

[Bjornebye 25,582]

Yes. Back in October. My missus too. My chest is still dodgy and her smell and taste are still really weak. 

[Paulie Dangerously 6,691]

Yes, it was shite

That explains why she chose you as a life partner. I’d always wondered about that. 

[ZonkoVille77 5,523]

We think my missus got it but we never got tested. She was fairly fucked for 4 days and only started eating properly 2 weeks after. She has had palpitations and dizzy spells ever since. 

 

I had a temp for about 6 hours and felt off for about 1 day but that was all. 

 

I've put maybe but it's likely we had it. 

[Baresi 1,157]

Yes, back in March.  Definitely got it at the Atletico match as it was 5 days after that I took bad.  Horrible time. 

[johnsusername 2,218]

Yes, I had it over Christmas and a month later I'm still suffering with random chest pains, occasional heart palpitations and breathlessness (most of which only appeared near the end of my ten days, disappeared for a week or two and then came back) now I'm signed off work. I possibly should have stayed off work after my ten days but I felt okay to be honest. I'm currently sat ready to do my twice-daily, at home, blood pressure test.

 

I caught it off the wife, who's a teacher.

 

I also think me and the eldest had it back in April, but not as bad.

 

This time last year I was probably the fittest and strongest I've ever been. Meddling fucking Chinese cunts. I've seen they're trying to weasel out of it now saying it might have come from another country. 

[Bobby Hundreds 8,274]

Yes. I had very mild cold symptoms for one day. Essentially my whole missus family had it and no one suffered any worse than that. Whether there's different milder variations or its viral load or maybe even coming into contact with a load of variations at once that causes some people to have it worse than others fuck knows.  I've had far worse colds. Its a strange virus.

[Elite 8,793]

Yeah. As most of you know, I had it very bad due to it causing blood clots. I never needed oxygen or anything like that but was still hospitalised due to the pulmonary embolisms. Could have been much worse for me had I not got the treatment in time.

[Total Longo 2,867]

Unsure, the Mrs had it in March quite badly and for the first few days where it was just a persistent cough, i slept in the same bed as her, before kipping on the sofas for two weeks. I'm amazed how i wouldn't  have caught in that time, so i'm assuming i was asymptomatic. 

 

I've had three tests since and all were negative.  

[Anubis 17,431]

Yes. December.

I'm surprised none of you hipsters have had Covid 20 yet.

COVID-6 for me. I preferred their earlier stuff in smaller venues.

Whats it like living in a country that seems to know what it's doing?

A rectal swab? Who came up with that idea? Great fun!

[Section_31 19,861]

Been watching The Lord of the Rings lately too, what a place New Zealand seems. To think someone actually lives in The Shire, doesn't have Covid and can go to rugby matches. Meanwhile, Boris Johnson's popularity has probably gone up.

I've got a bootleg version of Covid-4 live at Cafe Au Go-Go in Greenwich Village NYC 1975. Apparently Ringo was there. You can still smell the Consulate Menthol when you open the cover. 

[No2 933]

I was certain I had it March, had a test booked and they cancelled them all. The fact my my missus never got it had me thinking I didn't have it after all, then reading that only 17% of partners get it has me thinking I had it.

Well we have taken back our borders!
