  • Whether I catch it or not is irrelevant to me - the over-riding factor for me is not wanting to catch it and pass it on to others, which could ultimately result in someone suffering, or much worse. Fo

Sweeps an attention seeker

Id rather be in the trenches with bi e

Me and the missus have asthma, only relatively mild but would rather not get it.

I'd rather not get it right now

Rather not have it thanks.

Hopefully I'd come through, but plenty of people with lots of ongoing symptoms. Anything like that and my job is up the swanny, so no.

Twats just follow the rules please and hopefully we can manage this thing until a vaccine is available. 

No thanks, there are all sorts of on-going health issues after people have had it.

Would have made it as a footballer if it wasn’t for my dodgy Covid injury 

Mrs is immunosuppressed so not much choice than stay in with her really.

Cyrus the virus 

2 peneth

Someone has had it, in Hospital from November with an Asthma attack, then about 2 weeks later picked up a mystery bug that caused her sats to drop, pneumonia, collapsed lung and having to cope on oxygen for weeks after, after a horrid cough and inability to eat (all food tasted crud). The nurses on the respiratory ward have admitted that most covid cases have presented the same way she did. The doctors have refused any follow up appointments..

I'm 99% certain I've had it, which was 5 days after the family member was discharged as they didn't know what was wrong, but needed the ward space. Followed the symptoms to a tee. 7 days of feeling shite, temperature of 41 at one point and was on the cusp of ringing for an ambulance as even though the hospital is 10 mins walk, I knew i wouldn't make it. Spoken to 2 GP's since who have confirmed what it was (only hospital admissions were tested at the time), alongside the Blood service wishing to take plasma, they were clearly quite confident I had had it. 

 

So here's the kicker, you might be lucky and be asympomatic, you might get it bad, like myself. You might get it really bad like my family member

FWIW, She still isn't 100%, her breathing is still bad 9 months later and wakes up in the night struggling for breath. That's covid after effects. I'm unable to eat without coughing now, every time I eat, I have a cough, it's happened since I had it, having never had the issue before.. It's left its mark on both of us.

Despite all that, she STILL wears a mask when she's out, 

Not worth the risk.

I don’t suppose anyone wants to get it and most will take reasonable measures to avoid getting infected but I’d be happy to take my chances of living a semi normal life rather than being under house arrest

Ive had worse hangovers

Bunch of queers.

I've had it - was unpleasant but would give it a 6/10. It's the variation that's the difficult thing to predict. 

Mind you I'm rock hard like! :)

Aye. Agree with this. 

Got a few mates still suffering long term fatigue after catching it back in March.
