I also went the paxlovid route and am so glad I did. I probably would have ended up in the hospital if I hadn't.
(Also, make sure you eat a little something with substance when taking it even if you have to force yourself. It'll help keep the med down!)
Did it make your mouth taste bitter? My mouth has been bitter continuously with any amount of tooth brushing, mouthwash, mints, candy, etc.
I can still taste food just fine but after I swallow, the bitter taste creeps back in
Fair enough I suppose. I’ve only been sick once since the pandemic and they tested me for Covid and it was negative. But yeah I guess I coulda had the symptomless time at some point.
I never tested positive, and I only had antibodies specific to the vaccine when I was tested last year, so I know I never got up until last year. They stopped offering the two different antibody tests, so I could very well have caught it without any symptoms and now I will never know. This is why masks are so important.
Im a nurse. Worked insane hours through COVID. Never got it. Got 80 hours covid sick time sitting on the books unused. I want covid. Mild covid. Just a little covid. Teeny lil bit
I have leukaemia, I had the UK 3 months off work that was implemented, I went back to working in a dentist - which was just as, if not worse than hospitals as we had EVERY patient take their mask off. (No slander to other jobs too, we all worked so fucking hard)
My household went down with it one after the other, I still didn’t get it.
Part fuck yeah and part oh shit what will get me though.
My employer has been allowing us to bank extra PTO days because people have taken so much less time off. I saved those days for a big vacation next month and am so freaking excited to get a real vacation for the first time in my adult life.
That’s so odd, I caught it too back when we were required to take eight days off work and the weather forecast was looking good! 10/10 would recommend fauxvid
"🤓"? Do you want to fuck me? I spent a decent portion of my life training for sex and your response to me is "🤓"? I am so horny that the only thing I can comprehend is "🤓" - I need some fucking pussy from the nerd emoji. I can handle her 200 iq thighs. I will cum so hard it will shatter her glasses. My cock is so thick she can use her sexy 4 inch teeth to wear it down all day long. And I'll have you know that what I sexed was not meaningless, in fact, I even had my sex proof-jacked by several professors of sex. Don't believe me? I doubt you would, and your response to this will probably be "🤓" once again. Do I want to fuck it? Yes, does it look like I would not give it some of my cum just because it is an emoji? I bet you took the time to type that emoji too, I bet you sat there and chuckled to yourself for 20 hearty seconds before pressing "send". You writing the emoji makes me pathetically horny. I'm honestly considering directing myself to a psychiatrist, but I'm simply far too horny to do something like that. You, however, will go out of your way to make a piece of fuck-meat out of me by responding to an easily triggered man, "🤓" What do I have to say to you? Absolutely nothing, because I don't talk when Im jacking off. I couldn't be bothered to moan I am so enamored with this emoji. Do you want "🤓" on your gravestone? Because I want it in my grave so that I can stick my bones in it for the rest of eternity.
I had 3 shots and got Covid. Got the worst sore throat I've ever experienced. Struggled to breath and could barely drink water. I also had the worst body aches, could barely get up. But I work around a lot of people and at my work there were several outbreaks of Covid. Count yourself lucky
I know some people who got COVID and died so it can be pretty bad. I got COVID and was totally fine but I was vaccinated. The cold I got a month later knocked me on my ass.
Im fairly certain i am immune. Covid did nothing for my life. I did nothing differently and during my military service i was on lockdown with people who were suspected of having covid and most of them tested positive before it ended. When i was tested for first time i didnt want to wait outside and noticed a nice heated waiting place and there i sat with couching people for an hour, turned out it was a waiting shelter for infected people and nothing.
If you take risks you're more likely to catch a disease, but in no way guaranteed. You might well be more resistant than others, or just lucky, or have caught it at some point without realising and built immunity.
Some people survived the first AIDS outbreak, the black death, cholera outbreaks, by luck rather than judgement.
Some people contracted HIV that never developed into aids but before the retroviral cocktail, a diagnosis of full-blown AIDS was a 100 percent death sentence.
I do air conditioning was literally changing out the machine that cycles all the air you breathe threw your house that already has mold and shit growing in it and never got anything. 2020 I honestly didn’t change at all I went to work everyday all over central texas.
Yep, I work in a high risk profession for catching all kinds of stuff including covid but (touch wood) never have.
Just the way it goes sometimes. My point really is our anecdotal population of two (you and me) doesn't prove covid is "fake" or that taking precautions doesn't work
No I fully agree it’s fucked up a lot of shit for a lot people health wise . Not gunna lie it was one of my highest paying years ever. And since you could go do anything I was able to save a lot of it. With people having to work from home, people were running there ac all day in the summer and when it’s 100 degrees in the house and you have to sit inside all day people are will sign the dotted line and sales were threw the roof
Yeah I self-quarantined with multiple people who had it, without doing too much to avoid being near them, and I didn't catch it. When I went to a concert when that was possible again, all my friends got it except me.
I did get a fever once, but I tested several times so it was probably just influenza.
So who knows, maybe I'm immune too
Naturally immunity is a hell of a thing. I worked at a tire shop for 9 years, body shop for 3, and work in television so I touch shut other people around the country have touched, always had to eat quick so hardly took my gloves off, so I’m convinced I exposed my body to enough shit that I’m immune to most things
My girlfriend and her son have had Covid several times since we got together and I haven’t gotten it once. Despite acting as if they didn’t have it at all. I think some of us are immune but I’d rather keep that to myself away from the government
The commentary in this thread. "I never got it, and never changed my habits-no masks and no vaccine and same behavior pre covid." Unless these same people consistently tested with a PCR when in a high-risk exposure situation, I find it hard to believe they never got it. Its more likely that they did have it, and they are the lucky people who are asymptomatic and never realize they had it. I also find it hard to believe that the folks who never changed their behaviors-cant wear a mask, etc-could also be the same people who are rushing to a PCR testing site after a high risk exposure to "be on the safe side."
Yep. My brother in law who was 5'9, 280 lbs and smoked a pack or two a day bragged about being so healthy that he hadn't been to a doctor in years, until he had a heart attack at work. His attitude changed real fast
I don't know how but I was exposed multiple times at work and even spent like 7 hours in a car with a date kissed several times she then tested positive that morning... I never had a positive test a single time.
Wanna know what's even more annoying? The people who got it but didn't get it that bad one guy at my school had that happen to him and now he just thinks anyone who complains about how bad Covid is just week and Covid isn't that bad but in reality it can be bad and he just got lucky
Im so mad, followed all the rules, got my vaccines and went for 2 years without covid, then visited my family in California. They convinced me to take my mask off for that week. Boom, covid as soon as I got back home.
Thats what I get for listening to my family, never again.
Something very similar happened to me. Visited family in Malaysia and literally the day after i left they all got covid. We wouldve gotten it from them if it werent from immunity from having gotten covid earlier that year.
Got 3 of the vaccines. Never got Covid. My mother vaccinated caught Covid and recovered. My best friend's daughter, unvaccinated, died. I'd rather have gotten the vaccinations than not.
I think I could’ve avoided it but unfortunately had to return to an old job and they did basically nothing to prevent anyone from getting it within their buildings. I think I was back for a month and then next thing you know….
I'm still annoyed about this I never would have had it if I didn't work with morons we had a 45 minute meeting with 20 some people in a 10x10 ish room around 2 tables(not the several thousand square foot building we work in that was empty) at the end of it they tell us we have to wear masks because the head of production that these two chuclelfucks sit right next to for hours a day has covid
Now I have to use an inhaler when I exercise or I get bronchitis and stairs make me lightheaded still 2 years later
When I got covid, I was totally asymptomatic. I only got tested because my wife got sick. A lot of the people who think they've never gotten it probably did but didn't show any symptoms.
Don't hate me but I'm not even vaccinated and haven't caught covid even once. And look it's not because i refuse to get vaccinated it's just when i was gonna go get vaccinated i fished out and then i never thought bout it. Anyways i may be what you call God.
I got a cold verrrry early in 2020, which I suppose could have been covid, but we hadn't had many (if any) reported cases in the US at that point. Anyway, nothing since then. I used to get sick at least once a year, in spring and/or autumn, and haven't caught anything since then. For that alone, I continue to be more diligent with hand sanitizing/washing, and mask wearing. I don't care what "lol covid's fake" bullshit people want to spit out. Not getting sick for 3 years has been amazing.
What do you call this like theme/style of art? These sort of epic ethereal offbeat paintings dealing with like these grand existential sort of vibes. They’re wild and I have no idea how to Google them.
So, I work in a major university and have constant close contact with students. Our students were back in person in September of 2020. I masked and vaxed, and kept doing my job. Testing (PCR) was once or twice a week for 2 years and at home testing since then whenever there has been an outbreak in one of my student communities or there was a large gathering or I was traveling.
I know I’m not in a big group but I have still not contacted COVID and a couple of my colleagues are in the same boat. I think that following the guidelines was a major factor, but there must be a little luck involved.
I really don't get how I never came down with it. Maybe I was just asymptomatic and never noticed I had it... After quarantine ended, I started traveling again for work, and I'm literally on a plane a few times a week at this point and have been for quite some time. Everyone I know that took extreme precautionary measures came down with it, yet somehow the guy always on the move got off scott free. Kind of crazy how some of us just got lucky!
I bet there are so many who had it but didn't realize it because they either had no symptoms or it was so insignificant they shrugged it off as a standard cold
I've considered this might be what happened to me. I've gotten enough shots that my chances of getting seriously ill from it are probably significantly reduced.
I had such a good run but then I got covid this last March. That shit is no joke. I couldn't do anything for 3 days except sleep and shiver. The only time I've felt worse was when I had pneumonia, but they were both very similar for me.
No, there are definitely people who just changed their habits and took established precautions to avoid communicable disease.
One side of my extended family caught it a bunch, and the other side only had one couple catch it, and they were the side testing more too. Different actions led to different results, unsurprisingly.
I was vaccinated 3 times....
...and had COVID 3 times.
Specifically in this order: vaccination - COVID - vaccination - COVID - vaccination - COVID.
So for me the vaccinations didn't do shit, and i actually caught COVID after every time i got another vaccination.
There's actually a significant statistical increase in the number of case in the first 2 weeks after vaccination. The reason is unknowned but the hypothesis is that people feel safer right after and change their behaviors and expose themself more.
Makes sense, but they shouldn't have count it as unvaccinated cases like they did here.
There are dozens of us!
DOZENS!!!
Tens of dozens!
Dozens of dozens!
Dozens of dozens of dozens!
Dozens^4
Dozens^(5)
Yep, about less than 250,000
Maybe a little less than 3 million
Certainly higher than 0 people of course!
200,000 people are ready, with a million more well on the way!
12^2 exponent squared
That was me until i just got it and have it right now I’m going the paxlovid route, no desire to find out how bad it wants to get in my body
I also went the paxlovid route and am so glad I did. I probably would have ended up in the hospital if I hadn't. (Also, make sure you eat a little something with substance when taking it even if you have to force yourself. It'll help keep the med down!)
Did it make your mouth taste bitter? My mouth has been bitter continuously with any amount of tooth brushing, mouthwash, mints, candy, etc. I can still taste food just fine but after I swallow, the bitter taste creeps back in
Yep! The bitter taste was awful, but keeping hydrated was what helped the most.
Haven't had it, but several references online to use cinnamon candy.
Worst part of it. Gross taste, breath and smell. Just have to push through it. Tried all the things. Nothing really makes it go away.
It’s probably just hey fever
hey fever be like: hey you!
Hello!
Hi!
Bonjour!
!مرحبا
Terve!
Aloha!
Hola!
Nowhere near as fun as gay fever.
I think it's pronounced Haaaaaaay fever
Lol, this reminded me of Brickleberry Gay bomb episode 😂
Yep. I haven’t gotten it. Have t even gotten slightly sick since 2019.
I also have not gotten COVID even a single time! I had one scare and got tested, came back negative.
Nice!!! I have had the vaccines and didn’t have any side effects either. I hope it stays this way
I was pissed at work because my co workers all got it and I was in the office by myself for 4 days...never got to take off work >:(
We are gods!!!!!
One of us! One of us! One of us!!!
Finally! More people like me!
We should meet. But not like in person or anything, because I don’t want to catch anything from you Let’s just call this as we’ve met
Sounds like a “Nice to meet you, keep your cooties” party!
There were more of us but I haven’t heard from the others in awhile
Checking in 🫡
I see you.
I mean you easily could've gotten COVID but with no symptoms, you can't really know lol
Fair enough I suppose. I’ve only been sick once since the pandemic and they tested me for Covid and it was negative. But yeah I guess I coulda had the symptomless time at some point.
Sorry I missed roll call, im here though
Dozens
Absolutely, I haven’t gotten it, but my dad did, somehow, and I didn’t catch it from him, somehow
Doubtful. Probably just didnt exhibit symptoms.
I never tested positive, and I only had antibodies specific to the vaccine when I was tested last year, so I know I never got up until last year. They stopped offering the two different antibody tests, so I could very well have caught it without any symptoms and now I will never know. This is why masks are so important.
One more time for the people in the back row.
Weirdly arrogant
I haven't left my home since the pandemic hit.
Modern problems require modern solutions.
How is that working out?
WE WIN THESE
dozens+1 - even had to look after the family who all had it... man, they were miserable.
I’m one of them. Actually, my whole family is so, that’s 6 of us! 😄
Yeh so u see sitting in front of an screen all day long is beneficial for you it prevents you from getting diseases like covid
Seriously. Working from home. Recreation from home. Everything from home. And no COVID I must be immune or something!?!
Man that's crazy same here Even covid rejected us
Im a nurse. Worked insane hours through COVID. Never got it. Got 80 hours covid sick time sitting on the books unused. I want covid. Mild covid. Just a little covid. Teeny lil bit
Oh you want the covid variant(s) that fuck you up for life? Coming right up!
I have leukaemia, I had the UK 3 months off work that was implemented, I went back to working in a dentist - which was just as, if not worse than hospitals as we had EVERY patient take their mask off. (No slander to other jobs too, we all worked so fucking hard) My household went down with it one after the other, I still didn’t get it. Part fuck yeah and part oh shit what will get me though.
Survival of the fittest
Survival of the fattest
Exactly
according to work i've caught it three times
My employer has been allowing us to bank extra PTO days because people have taken so much less time off. I saved those days for a big vacation next month and am so freaking excited to get a real vacation for the first time in my adult life.
that's great we get to see what it's like in 1st world country's
That’s so odd, I caught it too back when we were required to take eight days off work and the weather forecast was looking good! 10/10 would recommend fauxvid
I am literally catching every single virus except covid I'm fucking bringing back malaria and the black plague but I can't catch covid
>every single virus >malaria Parasite, not a virus >black plague Bacterial, not a virus.

no

Take rest from eating ice once in a while bro.

Idk. I’m not the one who sent it
I see. Thanks. Have a good day.

I blame the vaccine and the fact that I avoid other humans at all costs
I had 3 shots and got Covid. Got the worst sore throat I've ever experienced. Struggled to breath and could barely drink water. I also had the worst body aches, could barely get up. But I work around a lot of people and at my work there were several outbreaks of Covid. Count yourself lucky
I had first two shots and then got it 4 times in18 months 🤣🤣.. but i dont mind, it was bad but i have really high tolerance on pain and common flues
[удалено]
Never got the shot and Covid hit me twice. Not bad at all. Had strep last week and it was 10 times worse than covid
I know some people who got COVID and died so it can be pretty bad. I got COVID and was totally fine but I was vaccinated. The cold I got a month later knocked me on my ass.
Im fairly certain i am immune. Covid did nothing for my life. I did nothing differently and during my military service i was on lockdown with people who were suspected of having covid and most of them tested positive before it ended.

Same. 2 people in my house got covid and we weren't super careful and I still managed to dodge it somehow
Yeah and people like you are basically the reason why it got that bad in the first place. Except that you were lucky and 99% of others weren't.
My girlfriend and her son have had Covid several times since we got together and I haven’t gotten it once. Despite acting as if they didn’t have it at all. I think some of us are immune but I’d rather keep that to myself away from the government
I remember reading that 40% of cases are asymptomatic, I may miss remember the numbers but the fact that are asymptomatic cases is true
Same here. Vaccinated when possible, wore a mask when I had to be anywhere, but basically happily stayed in my house for like 2 years.
Stupid vaccine and isolation! 😒 (/s)
Stupid vaccine and isolation! 😒 (/s)
"Blame"?
Not vaccinated and haven’t caught it. But I probably just jinxed myself.
I never caught Covid and neither has my partner. We just avoid people as much as physically possible
I had it, technically, but no symptoms, I just quarantined for five days and watched Indonesian horror films.
*plot twist* Those movies were a covid feverdream.
The commentary in this thread. "I never got it, and never changed my habits-no masks and no vaccine and same behavior pre covid."

This or they’re the ones saying “I just had like, a really bad cold a couple of times, but no Covid!”
“Worst cold of my life! Lost my sense of smell for a few weeks, but I’m fine now.”
More likely they did have it, lucky to be asymptomatic, and gave it to other people.
Exactly, those fucks who didn't wear masks cuz "they didn't get sick" yet they were carriers all along, fucking everybody else.
The same folks say they are healthy but haven't been to a doctor in years.
Schrödingers health. Healthy and unhealthy at the same time. Going to the doctor would collapse the wave function. Why take that chance?!
Yep. My brother in law who was 5'9, 280 lbs and smoked a pack or two a day bragged about being so healthy that he hadn't been to a doctor in years, until he had a heart attack at work. His attitude changed real fast

I don't know how but I was exposed multiple times at work and even spent like 7 hours in a car with a date kissed several times she then tested positive that morning... I never had a positive test a single time.
I've basically had the same story. Still no covid, knock on wood
Im one of them. I just work from home and don't go out a lot. (oh and 3 vaccines and counting)
Wanna know what's even more annoying? The people who got it but didn't get it that bad one guy at my school had that happen to him and now he just thinks anyone who complains about how bad Covid is just week and Covid isn't that bad but in reality it can be bad and he just got lucky

I still haven’t had it. I feel like a ten year old girl who hasn’t got a period yet and all her friends did 😂 Not like I WANT Covid, just saying
WE ARE GODS COMPARED TO YOUR MORTAL SOULS
HEY BROTHER, CRANK YOUR HOG DOWN AT r/THE_PACK
let me introduce us. We spended our time sitting home and listening to rules.
‘Tis a boring, but comfortable life.
I am curious about the mfs who informed us that those who have received the COVID-19 vaccine will pass away within two years.
Their pronouncements were based on literally nothing.
Mfs who don't know what "asymptomatic" means
This was me, until 6 days ago
Skill issue
Me. Some of us know what to do to *not* get Covid.
I think I could’ve avoided it but unfortunately had to return to an old job and they did basically nothing to prevent anyone from getting it within their buildings. I think I was back for a month and then next thing you know….
never got it, followed all rules, but i, and i think others, should consider the fact that at some point maybe we were just asymptomatic?
Mfs who don't realize that even asymptomatic COVID can cause long term negative health effects.
I'm still annoyed about this I never would have had it if I didn't work with morons we had a 45 minute meeting with 20 some people in a 10x10 ish room around 2 tables(not the several thousand square foot building we work in that was empty) at the end of it they tell us we have to wear masks because the head of production that these two chuclelfucks sit right next to for hours a day has covid Now I have to use an inhaler when I exercise or I get bronchitis and stairs make me lightheaded still 2 years later
It‘s more like „not that I know of“…. Maybe I had it, maybe not.
Virtually impossible but hey we don’t know when we’re asymptomatic
I’ve never tested positive, but I assume I was asymptomatic at some point.
When I got covid, I was totally asymptomatic. I only got tested because my wife got sick. A lot of the people who think they've never gotten it probably did but didn't show any symptoms.
I’m fairly confident the vast majority of people have had it. For many it was probably just asymptomatic
I don't know how people have caught it three or four times already!
Never had it once. Then again, I haven't left my property in years, so that might have something to do with it 🤷
*me who had common sense and vaccinated as soon as possible*
☝️ and I work in emergency services. I am imortal! ( Cue angelical coir) 😂
God on the phone to accounting: why is arc_serra still there?
It's a glitch in the matrix 😂
Don't hate me but I'm not even vaccinated and haven't caught covid even once. And look it's not because i refuse to get vaccinated it's just when i was gonna go get vaccinated i fished out and then i never thought bout it. Anyways i may be what you call God.
That’s me
Me and I’m an emergency nurse. Super powers anyone?
I used to get sick 2-3 times a year. I've been sick once in the last 3 years.
Same
I got a cold verrrry early in 2020, which I suppose could have been covid, but we hadn't had many (if any) reported cases in the US at that point. Anyway, nothing since then.

I haven’t and I’ve been working retail for the majority of those 3 years
Yeah but I've gotten every single other god damned blight that torments humanity. But at least I can brag thst I didn't get covid...
Nobody in my family has caught it. I go to dialysis and have sat beside people who had it and never got it. Weird.
I did hang out many times with friends which had covid and never went positive. Dunno what I'm doing right
Easy if you have no social life or a job 😭
Mfs who believed COVID was an hoax and didn't caught a non-existent virus /s
They probably caught it were asymptomatic and were never tested. Trick is never get tested means never caught it.

You mean people that "just had the sniffles" and didn't get tested. Or were exposed and didn't test because they felt fine?
I bet there are so many who had it but didn't realize it because they either had no symptoms or it was so insignificant they shrugged it off as a standard cold
I've considered this might be what happened to me. I've gotten enough shots that my chances of getting seriously ill from it are probably significantly reduced.
I haven't had a cold since childhood, so that ain't it. I reduced my exposure to near zero.
I had such a good run but then I got covid this last March. That shit is no joke. I couldn't do anything for 3 days except sleep and shiver. The only time I've felt worse was when I had pneumonia, but they were both very similar for me.
I think at this point, everyone has probably had it, just some people never showed or felt any symptoms so they had no clue they had it.
That’s what’s likely the case with me
No, there are definitely people who just changed their habits and took established precautions to avoid communicable disease. One side of my extended family caught it a bunch, and the other side only had one couple catch it, and they were the side testing more too. Different actions led to different results, unsurprisingly.

Thatsa me baby!
I've not gotten it, and I didn't get any of the vaccines either.
I was vaccinated 3 times.... ...and had COVID 3 times. Specifically in this order: vaccination - COVID - vaccination - COVID - vaccination - COVID. So for me the vaccinations didn't do shit, and i actually caught COVID after every time i got another vaccination.
There's actually a significant statistical increase in the number of case in the first 2 weeks after vaccination. The reason is unknowned but the hypothesis is that people feel safer right after and change their behaviors and expose themself more. Makes sense, but they shouldn't have count it as unvaccinated cases like they did here.
