Have not tested positive so far but given how quickly it went around my work where I work very closely to my employees, I'm guessing asyptomatic for Omicron.

Pretty sure I got the OG COVID, when it was still called SARS-2, since I was in Asia in December 2019 and got a super powerful flu that had all the symptoms of COVID

OG Covid back in October 2020

How does people know what they have? I thought the results only show positive/negative?

yeah I had a superbad flu that year too so I figured I had it (and my parents had just visited china, too!), but i tested for the antibodies around June of 2020 and it was negative

there was legit just a superbad flu going around

I've had a mild sore throat for the last few days, but unless I'm doing the rapid tests wrong it apparently isn't covid (my province is only officially testing super sick or super old now so I can't know for sure). I hope this is Omicron though. Means I got it out of the way and my two vaccinations turned it into barely an annoyance

This is definitely going to turn into another "I was sick at X time I had Omicron" conspiracy like we had way back when COVID first happened and everyone insisted their seasonal flu was COVID.

Yeah there's no real evidence for it. My other travel mates got it right when getting to the Philippines though, so it was def something there.

Probably had COVID classic right when it started (i.e. the one person in my household who didn't get sick in February later tested positive in June, then no one else got sick that time)

got tested a few days ago, probably have the Omicron right now :(

OG in December 2020, tested positive and was fairly sick in-home. Lost taste for a few days, chills, extreme fatigue. Thankfully, no post-covid syndrome.

None of them, and I'm honestly pretty surpriaed because while I've been careful to some extent, I've also dodged a lot of close calls.

Denmark spends a lot on testing, so there's basically no way I've had it unless it was right in the beginning and I was completely asymptomatic.

Exactly this. I've been following all the suggested protocols for the most part aside from seeing my family for the holidays this year, and meeting up with my friends once both this and last summer. Those close calls were times when I was just surrendering to it thinking I was bound to catch it, but never did. I'm sure I can't escape it forever though with how poorly it's being managed overall.

It's possible that I caught it on a cruise ship in January 2020, but I'll never know for sure. I haven't been sick at all since that time, so if I had COVID at any other time, I was asymptomatic and nobody else in the house caught it either.

If COVID went on a cruise ship it would have absolutely been detected due to the amount of people it would infect(And likely hospitalize from that sort of population).

You did not get COVID on a cruise ship in January 2020.

Yes but also it's far more understandable now because, unlike before, covid is significantly more prevalent now than either influenza or the common cold. Of course there's also RSV and general allergies to consider so random respiratory symptoms, unless there are other reasons to believe exposure, are still more likely to just "be something else."

Also to answer the topic question: Nothing so far.

I think it's funny that the topic implies that most of us will have had some form of COVID and then over 80% are just like "nah, dawg."

It was definitely in the US at that time, but rare sure. In Asia it was well into the spread though.
