Over 90% of those deaths are Americans.

There's a really bad surge in Texas right now that hit me like a truck. I'd had it a few times before, but this was by far the worst and the shortness of breath and brain fog aren't going away this time.

    Hasn't everyone had it at least once by now?

    Yeah that's me. I tested and had it, back in January 2021, when my whole family had it. No symptoms for me. I always say I never get sick, but I'm fairly confident I'm just a disease vector at this point and I just never get symptomatic. My kids will bring stuff home from school, my wife will get it, and fortunately I'm able to just carry on.

    I had it only once, when I didn't wear a mask to a work function. In like 22. My wife uses meds that makes her immunocompromised so she's still masking. I'm not but probably should be. I do wear masks on planes and stuff

    My husband and I still have not had it. At first we thought maybe we were just asymptomatic. Nope, I got sick and hospitalized from the vaccine with myocarditis and the doctor said if I got actual Covid I’d probably die. So my husband has masked up really thoroughly as well.

    Never tested positive for Covid over here. One cold one time in 2025, other than that I just haven’t been sick since 2019. I also had a stockpile of N95 masks before the pandemic because I was worried about a pandemic. I figured it would last about 5-10 years, and so far I have sadly been basically correct.

    Lucky you. I got that the first time I had Covid during the pandemic. I was one of the "lucky" 35% or of people that ended up with those long term effects. I still lose words in mid sentence and can't remember what I was going to say next. The word is there in my head, and then instantly gone. It's the worst thing in the world......
