Have any FOH'ers not had Covid?

[KnightsAnole]

Never had it as far as I’m aware 

[Fuzz]

Still dodging that bullet.

Waiting for the next booster. Hopefully it is the combined Covid & Flu shot.

[alloy]

No. Have not had it. Had a cold and tested myself twice. Nada. So it was a cold.

[jakebarnes]

I haven't tested positive, even when my wife did. I'm sure I've probably had it at some point but never confirmed. 

[rcarlson]

Not that I know of.  Was really sick -- unusually sick in fall 2019.  My best guess is I may have gotten it then.  I can't think of a reason I haven't had it; don't really care.  Wishing I hadn't got the jab.

Maybe the jab is one of the reasons you haven't had it.

I'm a little surprised how many FOHers haven't had Covid - although a substantial proportion of infections are asymptomatic, especially among people who've been vaccinated, so some of us probably have in fact been infected without realizing it.

Probably not.  At best, severity might have been affected by jab.  Transmission and infection, no way.  Either way, regretting decision to get jab.

Fair point, the primary benefit of the vaccines is really in the protection against hospitalization and severe Covid rather than all infection. I still don't see why you regret getting it since, if you haven't had Covid yet, you're going to get it eventually and the protection will help and I can't imagine this forum without you 😉!

Did you have side effects or complications from the vaccine?

No.  Latent effects are troubling (statistically).

No Covid yet for my wife and I.

[BellevilleMXZ]

Not yet, as far as I know. Wife yes, 1 kid yes 1 no. And all worked through it all.

[RichUK]

Not yet, which is very surprising as I have been in a few places where I was convinced I would, including the Platinum Jubilee celebration in London last year where my wife caught it and I did not.

No mask wearing at all on the commute into my office and the trains and ruptures are very busy again, can only be a matter of time.
