[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]

I'm a covid spinster but who knows, maybe I will find my covid+ match!

I live in a red flyover state and there are still people who routinely mask--in the grocery store/gas station, at events I go to. Remote work, a small circle of acquaintance, and limited time to spend in person with people are probably why.

I have a niece who got it in Aug (vaxed and boosted although not since the first booster). No pneumonia, just miserable non-stop coughing at home, but has not been able to return to work, and she only takes sick days when her bosses force her to (and even then she resists--she's a restaurant cook and loves her work). She gets out of breath if she so much as talks on the phone for too long (she had told me about this, but first experienced it in real time last week, it was frankly scary). They had her on steroids for a couple of weeks with no improvement. Just had a heart monitor patch for a week and has an echocardiogram coming up. She's 35 years old. [/quote]
