Have you had Covid19?

[Imurg]

With the number of people who are asymptomatic, those who think they've just had a cold and not tested ann those who have simply not tested ...it wouldn't surprise me if half the population has had it by now..
That means, give or take, half of us on here have either had it(confirmed) or had it ( not confirmed) or had it ( not realised)..

Why do you say that?

Simply because you situation is exactly that of the 2nd option.

Have I had covid? Just as you I don't know - I might have - but I'm not aware I have so that's Option 2...No (as far as I know).

I could have had it very early on….I haven’t been ill so haven’t tested…all the tests I have done when needed were negative….so I may have had but then again I have not have had it….hence option 3 as my answer as I don’t know!

Had it over new year, was like a bad cold tbh, worst was a very sore throat. Triple jabbed as over 55.

Had it in September. Didnt have anything in the way of sickness. A little tired but could have been laziness. The main symptom was completely losing my sense of smell and taste.

Took about 2 months until I could smell anything at all. The senses are still very dull. Find myself putting lots of salt on food these days.

Not one cough, sneeze, sweat, or sore throat yet still suffering after 4 months. Really odd disease.

I'm on day 6 since testing positive. I'm triple jabbed and it's wiped me out for a good few days. The fever, constant headache and joint pain have all been really unpleasant. I've woken up in a very confused state a number of times and have had a number of moments of being fully conscious but confused, not knowing where I am or what I'm doing.

I'm much better today and felt able to work again but the lingering fogginess feels very strange and I'm finding it difficult to focus or concentrate.

I've lost part of my taste and smell. I've had no real cough but there has been a bit of a sore throat which worsened in day 4 and 5.

The first symptom I got prior to testing positive was an extremely runny nose. And I mean comedically runny. So runny that I had to bung my nose up with tissue because it was pouring like a running tap.

So for me it's been more like flu but without a cough.

Not worth a debate or any form of falling out - but I am exactly as you. I am not aware that I have had it; I have never had a positive test; I have never had any symptoms...therefore on the balance of likelihood I have not had covid and therefore I am exactly Option 2. Anyway - not that it matters...
