Me and the young fella got it two weeks ago. Didn't go out of the house much but we weren't exactly isolating in a room. Just lived normally and my wife never got it. 
Her mum also minded our son one day all day as we had no other options and had to go somewhere and her Mum didn't get it.

The boredom is the biggest challenge. Trying to stay in your room for 10 days or whatever it is is a killer.

I struggled with it, after day 3 - just blanked it.

It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

Few pals of mine treated it as a week off from both work and the kids as they were fine. Holed up in the spare room, food deliveries, netflix, pullin stomach off themselves, sport, betting. 

This was the omicron variant too.

Still havent caught it myself despite being surrounded by people with it. Would like to see the above poll done for present day. 


I'll get on this course of treatment straight away. Thank you Dr McG

Had it a few weeks back, symptomatic Sunday to Sunday, the first 2/3 days were the worst (but by no means serious) after that it was just tiredness and coughing then till the following Sunday. So literally 7 days, no after affects & no one else in the house got it.

The number of people that have had covid is probably much higher, we just don't know it cause they were asymptomatic and never got tested.

Probably the only time in your life you have coughed up for anything.

A pal of mine caught it in the last week, he'd just been in Chicago for three weeks going to baseball, wresting and stage shows and bleets "I don't know how I caught it" Ermm He was never the brightest bulb in the box ....

An aunt of mine has had two asymptomatic cases.

My Dad works as a hospital porter. Incredibly, he's not caught it (touches wood). If you have any friends, family or neighbours who are hospital porters, get them something nice for Christmas, their hard work often gets overlooked. Thumbs Up

Never had it myself.

My three kids had it, neither myself or the wife caught it despite them being on top of us for the two weeks.   Both of us were vaccinated, none of the kids were.     Have heard the opposite though whereby two vaccinated parents caught it and the kids didn't.    Seems to be pot luck

Not that I know of. Since August 2020, have been tested most weeks for work so even if I was asymptomatic I'd assume it would have showed up.
