    Just to be clear we're all getting COVID like on average about once a year, right? That seems to be the case for me and my partner.

      No PCR or rapid at-home test has ever turned up positive for me but I sure wish there were any other way to know if I have ever had it/how many times prior I may have had it.

      For the avg treat-goer American I have heard as often as three-four times per year. The actual avg last I checked is two times a year. They can ban my mask when they physically come and take it off my face.

        At this point I know what my COVID symptoms are. Heavy fatigue, headaches, diarrhea, aches, and a mild cough and scratchy throat. Lasts for a week.

        First time was ROUGH though. was sick for almost a month. Took like a year to recover.

      Forgive me if I'm too lazy to research atm. There are multiple big waves every year. And since people rarely test nowadays, lots of infections are passed off as the flu, cold, or allergies. I'll find something more substantial and get back to you.
