How many times have you had covid?

[Whosaidthattt]

Felt really awful yesterday and have just tested positive for the 3rd time in 18 months!

Once definitely, tested positive.

Once I think I had it, but it was before testing was available so can't be sure.

Not at all. Dh once

Twice; once before vaccine and once after double vaccination. Both times relatively mild.

Never! And I'm a teacher! 🤨

Once now and I'm so sick.

Twice. First time right at the start and it was horrendous - was in bed 2 weeks and our colleague died (work based transmission. Second time was a few weeks ago and after 3 jabs. I was convinced it was just a cold - felt totally different from first time.

Twice definitely proven with testing. A 3rd unconfirmed by testing but absolutely sure it was covid.

I think I had it back in March 20 before testing. Then twice confirmed in the last 5 months despite being triple jabbed. All three times felt really rough, like proper flu.

3 times in 18 months? Poor you. That does seem really unfair for you.

I've had it once, was pretty ill, last October. My 10 year old has had it twice in 5 months, poor thing. First time worse than the second.

Feel better soon

Still not had it, not that I'm complaining!

January 2020, my gp is convinced I (and lots of his other patients) had what we now know to be covid. Not tested positive for covid at any point. I have been in prolonged close contact with countless people, who have gone on to test positive, and I've never been infected.

Twice, both confirmed with testing. First time in 2020, second time at Christmas after 3 jabs. Felt much worse the first time than the second.

Three times, once March 2020 which was the worst, second time last month was quite bad, triple vaccinated and then last week this week, really mild.

None that we know of - no positive tests.....however we think I had it in Feb 2020 - I've never been so unwell with a cough that lasted six weeks. But DH (who is vulnerable to respiratory infections and viruses) didn't get it. Pre testing obv.

We both had bad coughs and felt like death last summer but again negative tests, but we live in the SW where we had the scandal of the laboratory cocking up lots of result so can't be sure.

We've all had it twice , first time nov 21 and second time March 22.

Three times. Twice confirmed by testing, the first right at the beginning and was nearly hospitalised.

Second and third times exactly a year apart, January 2021 and January 2022. I'd had all vaccines and now had my fourth.

I'm CV but I'm only ever reminded of being CV because I seem to catch covid so easily.

3 times, April 2020, August 2022, and then last month.

None. I had antibody testing through work so I know I didn’t have it before testing was available and I have had to do regular LFTs for work for a long time. I don’t know how I avoided it. My job means I have had to be in close contact with people throughout, got public transport when that was considered very risky, DC went to school as key worker children and as far as I know they haven’t had it either.

None.

I have tested regularly however as I work in a city centre office.

Twice

Once pre vaccine (Oct 2020) - was ill, spent a couple of days in hospital, long covid, ongoing issues and lifelong medication as a result.

Again more recently, after 3 vaccines (January 2022) -again was ill, had antiviral infusion in day 5 which helped a lot.

I've ongoing issues with blood pressure, chest/heart pain, and breathing but no idea if from bout 1 or 2 anymore. Now had 4 vaccines but who knows if they'll help

I teach infant school so in very close contact a lot. It's affected both staff and children throughout the school. I caught it both times during big outbreaks at school.

Dh and 19y dd have both never had it. Both tested regularly plus immunity blood checks. Both been in close contact with it several times, no isolation within our house and dd has been to many a festival and club throughout when at university, inc being in a tent and sleeping next to her friend who tested positive the next day. 🤷‍♀️

Once in 2020. I’m not vaccinated and have been around lots of covid + people in the last couple of years. Always done LF for me and the children and they have never caught it again either despite it running though their schools numerous times.

Only once in August 2021 so far. I was 17 weeks pregnant. Unvaccinated and it was very, very mild. Main symptom was a runny nose! I only tested because a colleague I had been working with tested positive first, otherwise I would never have thought it was Covid!

Never. I test every other week when visiting CEV relatives.

None. Test twice weekly and regularly come into contact with covid positive patients. DS has had it very mildly and I didn't catch it from him, despite his best efforts.

Twice, September 2021 and again last month. Second time was a lot worse despite having had both vaccines and booster.

The kids have both had it once (last September) and my husband hasn't had it at all.
