I haven't, but both my brothers have. The Yeti's had it twice. Luckily, very mild cases with no long covid aftereffects.

I've had it pretty darn sure. Although the rapid test at hospital said negative back then (early 2021) ... However said I did have an upper respiratory viral infection. Kicked my ass for real.

One of sisters said I had the "not covid--covid".
Imma pretty sure it was the covid.

I don't think I have had a symptomatic Covid infection. In June of 2002, I was sick for one day with a respiratory infection. A co-worker was sick at the same time. I only took an antigen test (negative) but not a PCR, as my issues resolved quickly. My co-worker received negative results from both the antigen test and the PCR. My wife - who cannot be vaccinated for medical reasons - does not appear to have had it (and I expect would have caught it had I been infected), although she was sick in early December of 2019 after traveling through airports where it may have been circulating.

I still regularly mask and buy take-out food, rather than eat at restaurants. So I am a bit of an anomaly.

When I had covid right before Christmas, I first tested with the newest tests I had. I had a stack of older (out of date) tests that I'd been to lazy to throw away yet, so just for fun, I used a few of those. They turned positive as quickly and thoroughly as the newer tests. So yeah, I'd say the older ones still work. At least, mind did.

In Idaho, a preview of RFK Jr.’s vaccine-skeptical America
This Idaho health district banned public clinics from distributing the coronavirus vaccine as widespread fear during the pandemic fades from public memory.

February 8, 2025
By Lauren Weber

CALDWELL, Idaho — The doctor beamed onto a health clinic video screen in October to convince the regional health board to ban public clinics in southwest Idaho from giving the coronavirus vaccine to the district’s 335,000 residents.

Ryan Cole, a pathologist who touted his expertise in immunology and virology, called the vaccines “experimental gene therapy” and “all risk, zero benefit,” falsely describing the shots that helped the country recover from a pandemic that has killed more than 1.2 million Americans.

“We shouldn’t give untested products to the citizens of Idaho,” said Cole, accusing Pfizer of contaminating its vaccine with “a known carcinogen.” The federal government and medical experts say that the vaccines have gone through rigorous studies and that there is no evidence the shots cause cancer.

What Cole did not reveal during the meeting: The Washington state medical board had restricted his medical license the previous January after determining he had made “numerous demonstrably false” statements about the coronavirus vaccine, among other pandemic-related topics, according to disciplinary documents.

The board restricted Cole from practicing primary care medicine and prescribing medications in Washington amid concerns he would “use his professional position as a physician to harm members of the public,” the documents said. His practice was limited to pathology. Cole is appealing the decision.

Nevertheless, the regional health board in Idaho voted 4-3 that October afternoon to prohibit the district’s four public health clinics from distributing the coronavirus vaccine, three years after the vaccine became widely available — a sign of skepticism over its use that has only deepened as widespread death and fear during the pandemic fade from public memory. The board, one of seven in the state, covers six counties.

More about the Idaho hearing, from an AP story covering this
Opposite Jansen’s plea were more than 290 public comments, many of which called for an end to vaccine mandates or taxpayer funding of the vaccines, neither of which are happening in the district. At the meeting, many people who spoke are nationally known for making the rounds to testify against COVID vaccines, including Dr. Peter McCullough, a Texas cardiologist who sells “contagion emergency kits” that include ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine — drugs that have not been approved to treat COVID-19 and can have dangerous side effects.
