Due to my OCD I'm almost a hikikomori and I got the virus. I don't know how. I work from home and I don't go to parties or things like that.

It lingers in the air like smoke. You could have just happened upon it.

It's SUPER transmissible. I have no clue why my wife and I haven't gotten it because she in particular has had several times where she was in close proximity with infected individuals at work. Maybe we have and were asymptomatic, or maybe we've just been lucky...so far.

Some people just seem to have good immunity. Count yourself lucky.

I do, especially since I'm definitely not one of those people who never gets sick.
