Re: Response to C-19

I, as well as many others at my work, had the same thing back in late December throughout January, with a cold/cough that seemed to never wanted to leave and some of the other symptoms. I was on the randomly selected antibody test and that came through as negative, (granted that reports that it is not guaranteed as 100% accurate), but I'm marking it off as possibly another infection and not Covid. Since winter is the normal cold/flu time but this one just seemed worse.Plumose wrote:I was just wondering if any of the people that are sure they had it before Feb. have actually had antibody test?
There are lots of respiratory diseases out there, and most of them have a much lower mortality rate then is being seen with this.
I am amongst those that had similar symptoms (cough and generally unwell, no temperature or changes in taste/smell) in late December, but haven't had an antibody test so don't know if it was Covid-19.
