True story. I got covid twice. Once in March. Then again about 2 weeks ago. Yes, you can get it again. If I were to guess, in the immediate time after getting it, you have a window where your body fights it off pretty well but after 4-6+ months, you can easily get it again like me and my wife did.

Here are my anecdotes: ANECDOTES.

My wife only got a headache the first time, second time she felt tired. And that was it for her symptoms. I got it from her. She got it from the hospital she works at, in March they closed down basically all other units and everyone had to work covid for the first 2 months. She was exposed the first few days. All her coworkers got it. Second time (sometime late Oct), her co-worker got it and spread it to others during meal/break-time. So others got tested. My wife got it again. She gave it to me again (we sleep in the same bed obviously).

My symptoms were worse than hers, but still barely worth mentioning. First time I had muscle aches for 3 days, felt tired. I had slight chills one night. Second time, I once again had muscle aches and felt tired, not as bad as the first time but it lasted about 4-5 days. That was pretty much it.

My kids did not present any symptoms but they weren't tested, but just guessing on how extremely infectious the virus is most likely they got it but just presented no symptoms.

Like I said, basically all her co-workers got it and most likely so did there respective families. AFAIK there was not one person in the circle who had any high risk symptoms. A lot of the word of mouth/chatting etc regarding it all is "yeah, I already had covid, no big deal" or thereabouts.

Don't let anyone on CE scare you with the whole "once you get it you are impaired for life" bs. The only way that would happen is if it severely affects you where you have difficulty breathing. The common person (which means the majority of you) people who get it will have little to no symptoms like me and everyone else I know in the huge circle of hospital staff. Most likely many of you have already gotten it and presented absolutely no symptoms. Look at all the celebs who got it and passed through them quickly without incident, and as far as deaths go, we know of the fountains of wayne guy, and that broadway actor guy who I don't remember the name of who had to his leg lost. Hell even pushing 70, obese Trump got it and he was fine.

There you go, take what you will of this post. Stop being so scared of it.
