No, and I only know one person that has had it and this includes friends, family, dozens of ROID heads at the gym and several dozen professional contacts both in the UK and overseas.

We've managed to avoid it as a family (I assume we have anyway) but I know loads of people who've had it.
The bizarre thing is how it can absolutely decimate one person and barely touch somebody else.

Yeah tested positive the day after the kids piled out for school last Christmas so I spent 10 days over Christmas at home on my own quite ill. But it was okay, because Boris told us schools were safe.
I still have quite a lot of anxiety over it all, feel every time I mix with anyone I'm putting them at risk.

I was worried that you were dead, I tried to phone you the other day Mr Pow!

No symptoms either time, but test 3 times a week due to work.

well bugger me sideways since my original comment on 14/10/21 have since lost my grandad and cousin (who was only 41 with no underlying) to Covid. Obviously upset at their deaths but it does not change my views on Covid.
I still seem to have avoided it, unless I have unknowingly had it without symptoms.

I seem to have avoided it but lets see, I'd be interested in antibody tests if that is a thing.

My ex wife has had it a couple of times. Guy next door died and God knows how many people i have spoken to have had it or got it at the time. Saying that, i do speak with hundreds of people a month working on a helpdesk.
The kids, my misses and myself have managed to avoid it so far. I've been working from home for the past 18 months which has most probably helped.

I guess you have to ask yourself "how bad could it have been without a vaccine" and roll the dice

Still no - just need airlines to admit that masks on planes are ridiculous given how many times you recycle the air and we're golden.

Just as mild as December 2020 I imagine, IE I couldn't taste and smell for 4 days while I built a trailer in my garage.

In the interests of data integrity.
Had it - didn't feel that ill - bed for a day, up and about for the second day and basically no symptoms from that point forward.
HOWEVER
Couldn't get a shower without wanting to faint, couldn't climb stairs without a rest and couldn't make it around a supermarket without stopping. Took me 10 days or so to be able to go back to work.

Had it in Feb, felt like a bad cold and didn’t feel like myself for a week or so, soon felt alright after.
However I do now suffer with hearing loss that seems to come and go in one ear, docs said I’m not the first person to see them about it since the rona

I thought I had it but lateral flow said otherwise, I can't recall ever having a cold during 'July' though and it lasted nearly 2 weeks.
Lots of rumours circulating at there of hearing loss, taste loss, heart attacks, ball sacs falling off etc.. no idea what to make of it. Serious Tin foil hat shit.
My gfriend had to go into hospital suspected heart attack. She is super fit, works out 6 days a week for years, never smoked, never drinks, no family history. A&E doctor said she had a heart attack, Cardiologist debunked it the following day saying she has SVT, issues with electrical signals. She's had this for 10 years and its not caused major issues. When I told friends and family guess what...
"Has she had any vaccines?"
