Current Events > Anyone here get hella sick last November?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I hear a bunch of people claiming dey were hella sick back den, and den i remember dat i TOO was super sick around dat time too. I had never felt so bad, i was scared lol

But it couldn't have been covid if da doctors said it was flu right?
---

Yeah in december, i picked up the coronavirus no doubt

My mom had a very bad flu like disease in November, but she tested negative for the flu. She needed to stay in the hospital for a few days. I never knew she tested negative for the flu until just recently, so now I wonder what she had.

---

My ex did. I never got it even though we lived together. I don't think it was Covid.

---

A coworker of mine was incredibly sick and almost put on a ventilator in December. Then in March, she took the covid anti body test and tested positive. That's not to say she didn't officially pick up corona from December to March, but it makes me think she had it in December.

---

Not super sick but I did caught the flu that was going around.

I was super sick in February when the covid news was breaking out though. Still waiting to be able to take an antibody test.

---

I was really sick for a couple of days in early February and then my wife got sick a couple weeks later, she had strong flu-like symptoms that took a couple of weeks to get over.

---

Right around Xmas I had the worst flu I've ever had in my life. Went to the Doc and tested positive for Influenza Type B, but since they weren't testing for covid back then is it possible I had Covid 19?

---

The USA had Covid long before December but it was covered up

I'm just saying since I tested positive for Influenza Type B is that different than Covid? I'm just asking bro lol

---

Nope

---

I got really sick for a week, and was feeling down for a month after.

---

I got sick for about a week back in late January where I had one of the roughest, harshest coughs I've ever had. My coworkers were even commenting about how rough my cough sounded. Had a mild fever for about a day near the end.

So maybe I had it.

I think some might of had it, but a lot are just mistaking something else for it. They want to feel like they already beat it for peace of mind >_>. I'd be happy if you guys are right and did beat it, but be safe.

Or maybe, Im hating because I'm not on the good end of this :3

---

Yeah, I did. I was in bed for like a week. But I highly doubt it was COVID since it didnt spread to everyone else.

---

For me it was back in February, but I don't even know if I'd still have antibodies at this point (or even where to get tested)

Considering Influenza Type B isn't SARS-CoV-19, yes, that's different than COVID.

I'd imagine that would be the give away sign. Not just being sick in general.

Nope, didn't get sick at all in November. I was sick in mid-March, but it seemed to be just a typical cold.

---

Were you in Wahun in November? You might be patient one. Iirc, I don't think the Chinese realized what they were dealing with until December.

---

I got fairly sick after a trip to Seattle in late October. Don't think it was anything too serious though. I just hadn't been sick at all in quite a while and forgot how bad it can be.

---

I traveled a ton for work around Nov-Jan and got sick. I felt like it was the worst cold I've ever gotten but I didn't spread it to anyone as far as I know so I doubt it was Covid. I'm pretty sure whatever I got was from flying on an airplane though

---

I had trouble breathing and a terrible cough but nothing else but it lasted all the way to mid Jan.

---

I did in February

---

I got hella sick at the turn of the year.

Doubt it was the rona tho

---

Yeah, my entire household was sick around that time and it was really bad. I couldn't smell or taste for a week or two.

---

TC, @metralo thinks you're a moron for believing such things:

metralo posted... that was written by a journalist at the conservative National Review. are you really touting this out as something many people aside from like minded fucking morons thought?

This what most people in Cali say.

---

I had a decently bad head cold back in early January, but it was clearly a sinus infection and not covid.

...the herd immunity was the stupid part of that. not that covid was here earlier than it was initially believed.

You're unable to see the whole picture, nice to know.

The idea that COVID being in California early doesn't make much sense on its own; the only reason the idea became popular was because the State's numbers wasn't looking as bad as New York (during their peak); aka "herd immunity" from COVID being here early.

February

---

Mid-January. I don't recall having a fever or trouble breathing, so I can't say for sure that it was COVID-19, but it was a bad time nonetheless. Took me about a week to stop feeling like total crap, and three or four days after that to get back to normal. Not a standard cold, that's for sure.

I went to a hockey game on NYE, and this thing hit me about two weeks later. If it was Corona, that's most likely where I caught it.

---

I was sick a bit early January and the beginning of February.

---

Either January or February I had the worst cold of my life, sometimes I wonder if it really was Covid tbh

---

I got really sick around Thanksgiving. I actually lost about 10 pounds due to loss of appetite and bad reactions to food.

I got sick and the only place I went to was a Pens game a few days before.




---

I had a sore throat that didn't get better for like a month in March, wonder if it was the coroni.

---

I see
---

mid-February. Felt like hell for three days. Well into May I felt like my lungs were filled with paste. I would cough so hard in the mornings that twice I threw up in the shower.
---

In December I got wrecked and worked from home for a week. I thought it was the flu, but who knows. I coughed so hard my throat spasmed and there was nonstop snot. I went through multiple rolls of toilet papers hacking up phlegm and I was very tired. For a couple days I barely ate anything at all, maybe a piece of bread. I normally have a high appetite.

---

Wife had what we thought was the flu or a sinus infection, but all swabs came back negative. She stayed sick for like a month. This was in mid-February.

Its been speculated that the virus had already been circulating, but no one knew about it, so we couldnt identify it. The first official case wasnt until mid-January, after China finally admitted its existence and laid out the symptoms. That would explain how it spread so fast from that point to being all over the country in a little over a month...people unknowingly spreading the disease because they thought it was a common cold/flu.

---

One of my workers was really sick end of February/beginning of March. He was out for 9 days, bad cough, absolutely no energy. I was talking to him the last day he worked when the sickness was starting, and I never caught any of it from him.
