Just that, really!

As a visiting teacher working in a petri dish schools, this is probably my longest period of not having a cold, thanks to covid and all the increased hygiene measures. It feels slightly odd not to have had days on the sofa surrounded by a sea of tissues.

What does this mean for the common cold? I'm hoping it won't be back with a vengeance!

YABU - I've had a cold since March 2020
YANBU - I've been cold-free since then!

I had a weird day where I had cold symptoms, really was like I was coming down with a cold, but two says later, it just disappeared.

Usually DDs picking up all sorts. You think of it, she gets it. With the masks, social distancing (and I'm hoping improved hand washing!) Shes only caught one thing this year, covid like symptoms but test was negative. That's rare for her, she's a once a month and there's a cold, a tummy bug or throat infection kind of kid.

I haven't had a cold since Nov 19. I normally get at least two stinkers a year plus milder sniffles.

No cold, but then I never get them anyway. I had covid last autumn.

Just caught a cold last night! No idea where from but my sleep is disrupted at the mo with baby so I have a weak immunity I guess. Other than that I've been 100% cold free since March 2020.

I’ve had a couple. Am going to work daily though, so probably caught there.
