    Had it twice. Didn't get it the first time my wife had it, even though I slept snuggled with her in bed every night. Conversely, after having had it twice, she was the only one who didn't get it again when everyone else in the house got it. For both of us, the second case was markedly milder than the first.

      I cannot give a definitive answer.

      I have never been tested, I have never been officially diagnosed. I have never been jabbed.

      My PCP suspects I had it Dec. 28, 2019 to mid-Feb. 2020. She was seeing patients with weird respiratory symptoms in Nov. 2019, but who tested negative for flu. She suspects it was here months before it was *officially* here.

      In terms of respiratory stuff, I have not had so much as sniffles since Feb. 2020.

        I don't know for sure. I suspect I had it last summer. I also suspect I may have had it in early March 2020, about two weeks before everything shut down.

        I got the first shot fairly early on but haven't gotten boosted. At this point in time, I don't see a booster as worth it from a cost-risk analysis. At the height of omicron, I think I could have justified it, but didn't have time from work to rest in case of a reaction.

          Not really a choice for me in the multi-choices...

          Had COVID Jan 2020, only knew because I had a headache for 30 minutes, and a mild fever for that same time on a Sunday Night.
          Because I'm around a lot of older people, decided to go for a text day.
          Tested positive the next day - ZERO symptoms besides that first brief headache / fever.

          It's possible I've had it since, with a mild headache and fever for a very brief period of time, but didn't bother to get tested again.

          Wife's story is pretty much the same.
          The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

            I'm going to assume that you meant 2021, since you didn't say anything about having just gotten back from Wuhan.

                First documented case in the US was, what, November 2019? I know people IRL who probably caught it in the December 2019 timeframe, just went undiagnosed because it wasn't known yet.

                  We started livestreaming in March of 2020, apparently, so it must have been more likely Jan 2021 - fun flies when you're having time.

                  Now I need to do some checking.

                    First documented case in the US was January 20, 2020. The only cases that month where people had it, and it was confirmed that they had it, were recent travelers from Wuhan.

                    I remember a study concluding that there must have been cases in China in November 2019, but those weren't documented.

                      Yeah, unfortunately, I'm at that age where I can vividly remember things whether they happened or not...
                      It's almost looking like my COVID experience was more like March 2021.

                      Still digging. It was such an incredibly insignificant event.

                      EXCEPT.... after I went for the test, and the day following that when the text showed up on my phone - "COVID TEST RESULT -- POSITIVE".
                      My chest tightened up, I had difficulty breathing, I... thought... wait -- 30 seconds ago, I was PERFECTLY NORMAL!!!!
                      Deep breath.... reality check.... all is well.

                      ETA: Found it!!!! January 17, 2021!!!

                        i had covid once, then the vaccine half a year or so later.

                          My daughter tested positive for the China flu at around the same time I was feeling a bit under the weather, so I assume I had it, too, but I didn't bother to get tested because, frankly, I didn't care if I had it or not. People sometimes get sick. I didn't see the big deal.
                          Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
                          But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
                          Than a fool in the eyes of God

                            Yes. At the end of January. Cough and fatigue were the main symptoms. Cough persisted for a bit.
