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

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.

Would all depend on how severe your symptoms are.

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.

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 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.

He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

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. 

strange one

I was in a house with 17 others from 1pm to 11pm on 2 consecutive days and no one got it. (Christmas day and Stephens Day)

A neighbour of mine was positive (he didn't know he had COVID) and had all his family around and every person that was in his house got it.

Bad for two days as said above, I had fever and a cough but these cleared up, had night sweats too for around 4 days, wake up in the middle of the night and the sheets would be soaked. Paracetamol doesn't do much so just plenty of water and vitamin c.

Got it a couple weeks back, was off work for a day and a half (should have milked more out of it) and a bit bad with headaches and cough, but then went away. for a week or so i was more easily tired than normal and that was it. All in all not too bad

No haven't got it but had siblings who got it.

Thankfully, I haven't as I really don't know how I could cope with being holed up for so long (plus my room has no TV Stern Smile

I just tested positive this morning, didn't feel good Sunday, very bad Monday and was on the mend by yesterday evening. Still have a little bit of a headache and the chills but nothing too severe. I reckon I'll be grand by Friday
