I’m getting over my second infection, that I know of. I think almost everyone in this comm says that qualifier. Because we understand things like asymptomatic spread and false negative tests. And no matter how diligent we are with precautions, there’s still a chance you can get it. (Blessings on our brethren who haven’t left home in almost 5 years).

I mentioned I had COVID to someone I was speaking to over Zoom yesterday.

They said, “Yeah my son and my wife had it in 2022, but thankfully I’ve never had it.”

What the hell do you even say to that?

    I have either never had covid or (more likely) wasn't symptomatic. I haven't had a regular cold for like this whole time.

    I wear masks every time I am in public though and always will from now on.

      Yep, I had one mild case of covid in 2023, and since 2019 ive had two colds? I used to get a cold like three times a year. I'm wearing this mask forever if it means I'm sick almost never now!
