I live in a very small town and pretty much only leave home for groceries. In general I'm never around people. On top of taking all the precautions, it wasn't that hard for me.

Never caught it, or never tested positive... or even bothered to be tested. I'm pretty sure I just had one of the mild cases, because I've had 'generic respiratory illness' with sniffles and congestion a few times since COVID-19 became a concern. I'm betting there is a large group of people who fit into my category.

I was never officially diagnosed, but I had something that looked a lot like COVID in late February 2020. Glad I got that out of the way before lockdown started.

I went three years without catching it then it spread through my workplace like wildfire because people won't stay home when they're sick and the one guy has to go to Vegas first chance he got.

I had it once and it was after a family gathering and every member of my family had it, except my mom. She didn't have it till now and barely reacted to the vaccine. She seems to be immune or something

I got it in January, but aside from the fever it wasn't any different from a cold for me, so I still consider myself lucky.

I had a mild flu for like 2 days... Does that count?

Managed to avoid it for a long time, but then got it from sitting shoulder by shoulder in uni after mask mandates were phased out. It was not pleasant, but luckily I didn't get any really bad symptoms.

I can't say I've completely avoided it, but I've only experienced loss of taste, although it may be placebo effect caused by the times.

Edit: grammar

Meh. Either i'm immune or i had it barely and am now immune.

I somehow dodged it until earlier this year and it barely affected me. Just woke up now at 6am and I have it again lol. The rest of my family spent the last week dealing with it and now it's my turn again.
