JCC Census [Updating Poll] Have you had Covid at least once?

Since the previous thread's poll is no longer relevant, I thought I'd create a new one.

 

Still somehow have not had Covid that I know of. I have tested anytime I was sick with anything. And during the first half of 2022 I tested every week as well. Nothing. My whole family has gotten it. Hell my roommate got it last semester still nothing.

 

I've gotten twice now ...

I will say the second time around wasn't anywhere closed to being as bad as the first time. Also the second time around I noticed it hits more with "after effects"...

 

I haven't had it yet either, which definitely surprises me.

 

Once last summer. I was pretty sick between Christmas and New Years but I didn't test. It would have been too disheartening if I was positive again just 6 months later and after getting yet another booster in October. I wasn't going anywhere so I just stayed home and didn't test. And we have plenty of tests I just didn't want to know. Probably wasn't Covid because last time one person brought it home we all got sick. This time it was just me.

 

I still suspect I will and basically everyone unless you literally live under a rock will get it eventually. At least a symptomatic version.

mite hard to know if you have an asymptomatic version of course unless your testing.

 

Once, and still rather fortunate that to my knowledge most of my family hasn't. I've only heard about one cousin getting COVID, around the same time that I did back in spring 2022.
To my knowledge, most of my family has been careful enough that they've been able to be lucky for the rest of it.

 

I think a lot of my immediate colleagues (the ones in my unit/building) have had it. I don't have an exact count but I do think it's a clear majority of them. I have a small family (even considering "extended" family members, like my sister's kids paternal grandparents), but most of them have had it. Like me, my husband hasn't had it either.

Granted, we don't do a lot of social events* , we both do a lot of our work from home, and we still wear masks in a number of public situations, but I'm still surprised.

(*not because of covid risks, though...unfortunately, we just don't have a lot of social friends who live in our area)

 

Everyone else I was living with was infected this past December, I had mild symptoms for 2-3 days, but I never tested positive. The others didn't test positive until several days into their illnesses, so I guess my viral load was never enough.

 

To my knowledge I haven't had it, and I've had five vaccine doses. I also wear masks in public/especially on transport (kn 95).

My parents whom I see nearly every day have had it, and I was around them right before they tested positive, but they isolated right away and so did I. That was my closest call so far.

I did have a case of probable RSV (tested negative at the hospital for flu and covid). That lasted longer and was worse than my parents' Covid. Wish I had had a vaccine for that.

 

I like the previous poll was 36-30 in favor of yes, and the new one is currently 9 yes and 10 no. Perhaps suggesting that the first people to respond to an internet poll are less likely to be interacting with infectable people

 

Once, Aug 2022 while fully Pfizer vaccinated with booster.
Day 1 lethargic and headache, next day fever and unable to leave bed, third day low grade fever and mostly okay, fourth day a little run down, fifth almost back to normal.

 

I’d also like to mention that I had no cold symptoms like a cough, runny nose or shortness of breath.

 

#Lockdown 2023

It's for the greater good!

 

March/April of 2020 and January of 2021. Got my shots in April 2021 and haven't had it at all since.

 

Yes, I had it in October, and in my case it was NBD. I've been much sicker with tonsillitis and flu (even when I've been vaccinated) than I ever was with Covid. A week off work (office job, mostly WFH) was all I needed. Although I must admit that it took about a month for me to recover to the point that I didn't get out of breath just walking upstairs. I'm back to living more or less as I did before Covid, with the caveat that I still mostly WFH. But I only wear a mask when I go for a medical appointment, where it's still strongly recommended if not mandatory.

 

Had it twice but each one was different to the other. Both mild cases thankfully.
First time, slight upset stomach and loss of taste. No coughing or anything.
Second time, like a moderate cold.
First time was in 2020, second time in 2022. So I guess original version and newer version.
I have four shots, pfizer and moderna.

Bye for now.

Officially? No.
Unofficially I think I had it Jan 2020.
