[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I got Covid for the first time, a month or so ago.

It bruised my ego. I thought I was one of the special few who would never get covid. Then I got it.

I recovered, and it's been fine. But my ego has never been the same.[/quote]

I think you know it is silly to assign moral value to having Covid or the lack of it, so I will not flame you on this. [/quote]

I'm not assigning moral value - I've lived my life 100% normally for the last 2.5 years, and probably did some "risky" things in the first year pre-vax (regular gym use, for example).

After a while, I thought I might have been genetically gifted or something! Nope, turns out I just hadn't met the right covid+ person to get infected by  :) [/quote]

These are the weirdest stories to me. Because I do think those of us who have never had it (myself included) start feeling like we must be immune. I know several people who slept in the same bed as their spouse all the way through spouse's covid illness (because they figured isolation was futile in the same house) and never got it. Testing the whole time.  But then some of those people eventually have gotten it. So weird. If not some natural born immunity, how did they (we) avoid it in so many "high risk" situations?![/quote]

This is exactly what DH did when I had Covid.

our DS brought it home, and he was mildly sick for about 8 hours.  A few days later, I started to feel lousy and then got hit HARD for about 7 days.

DH basically said "I probably already caught it from DS, and am maybe a day or two behind you.  I'm not going to sleep on the basement sofa when I'm certain I'll catch it anyway"

And we shared our bed the whole time I was sick.  And he never caught it.

So hard to understand[/quote]
