Yep. My family has and been verified. Just almost 1 month ago this time and symptoms were half what they were last time.
OT: Curious anyone had Covid Twice?

I appreciate your concern but my comments were “tongue in cheek”. The facts are: I am 63, I have not had COVID, and I am not vaccinated.check out this site

I don’t care what your decision is, it’s a personal choice. But bragging about not getting Covid “because” you didn’t get the vaccine is the type of reasoning that will land you on that site (and I hope you never do, don’t wish you any harm at all).
Most everyone I know has been vaccinated, and several have had COVID twice. I know some that have had the booster who have tested positive as well.
I was vaccinated (Pfizer) in the spring of 21 and got COVID right around Christmas. My whole family, all vaccinated, got it too.
Bottom line is it doesn’t matter if you’ve been vaccinated or not, you’re susceptible to getting COVID right now. As someone else said, it’s not going away anytime soon (if ever) so take precautions if you want (or don’t), live your life (or cower in your home), and let me live mine.

Sorry, I am not the best at picking up on humor sometimes… (or sarcasm, I sometimes completely miss it). Wishing you continued good health in 2022 and beyond.
Go Tigers!
We are all going to get it more than once. It is only a matter of time. China "accidentally" let out a lab created virus. It was an act of war
It's funny, the longer this has went on the LESS you hear from all the doomsday PRO-vaxxers. At this point people just believe what they want to and will go find a link of a study to show "they" are right. Bottom line is covid isn't going anywhere and it's long past time we move on and live life normally.
Oh, and I'm vaccinated (Pfizer), but want take another shot. My kids got their boosters over the Christmas break and were sick as dogs for 2-3 days.
Had Covid before vax was available. Vaxxed and boosted because immuno compromised. Just got Covid again over Xmas. Both confirmed with PCR test. First time was rough and had to get monoclonal antibody treatment. This time was the sniffles.
This is where I’m at. Two times vax, not sure if I’ve had it or not(had some sorta cold, not bad at all but didn’t get tested). I think it’s prudent for people to get vaxxed that aren’t, but at this point it’s their choice. People completely forgot how to do risk assessment in their daily lives. It’s beyond time to go back to normal.
My 9 year old had it in late July 21 and the week before Christmas Dec 21. Exact same symptoms both times: slight fever, cough, congestion, and really fatigued. Thankfully mild both times. Can only assume Delta and then Omicron.
If you haven’t had COVID you will get it. If you have already had it you will likely get it again.
I only have two data points in my immediate life. My un vaxxed coworker was sick for 3 weeks and still isn’t fully well 2 months later. My wife is vaccinated and was sick 2 days.
His case is obviously the extreme but both their doctors said generally unvaccinated people tend to be sick like a week and vaccinated people a couple of days. You’ve also got no chance of dying rather than a 1% chance. That’s enough of a reason for me; obviously it’s your choice.
I hear ya. But to counter that half of my office is out with Covid right now . Most all are very mild cases. The majority are vaxxed. One is hospitalized and has been vaxxed and boosted. The vaccines have been an epic failure IMO.
You’re certainly entitled to your own opinion, but the vaccine was to keep people from dying. It was not meant to keep people from getting it. In that sense it’s done that. Like 99% of the people still dying are unvaccinated. Again you do you. At this point you’ve heard everything for or against.
Asking folks their personal experiences with it is a helluva a lot better than the lies and bullshit we hear from ALL news outlets on the daily.
Kid in the room next to me in ICU was 35, excellent health, fully vaxed.
Dead.
NO ONE can talk about anything but generalities.
Generalities don't kill people.
Specifics kill people.
Yes, there are some trends, but this Virus is all over the board, popping up as it will, doing what it does in different ways to different people.
Know many vaxed and unvaxed. It's all a gamble.
It's life.
It's real.
This virus is not going away.
It's as much as how you deal with it mentally as physically in moving forward and back to some sense of normalcy.
I know of people that died from the vax. Literally. Go figure.....
Logic should tell us it will become less violent.
Who knows?
I know who knows..... no one.
Do what makes you comfortable and live with it.
It's ALL a gamble.
My 22 year old daughter had it a year ago. Was fully vaccinated this past fall. Has it again right now. Thankfully, it was mild both times.
Had ii January '21. Was in hospital. Got vaccinated and had the booster. Have not had it again. After my hospital stay, i will take as many vaccines as they have
Serious question: How do you know you had it?? Are these based on symptoms or tests- and if tests, which one. I am skeptical of test results and also people just assuming they have it.

PTL you are still here, brother.
I didn't mention it in my original post ( might edit ) but unbeknownst to me, they told my wife the same thing about 'the next 24-48 hours'

No one has had the same strain of the cornavirus twice.
Going thru my second bout right now. Much easier this time tho.
Had it at the End of January 2021
September J&J shot
Tested positive Friday.

I have had it twice. Once when the first wave came thru symptoms were mild( I never get sick period) so I considered it something..and once with Delta Wave. Second time, I had more symptoms and the cough held on for weeks, both times just stayed at home. The crazy situation was my wife had it the same week she had back surgery and had to stay on her back for weeks. This is not a good way to deal with Covid as they tell you to sleep on your side or stomach. It took her an extra week to kick the cough and congestion. We both lost our taste and smell for a few weeks. We assume our 10 year old had it but he had no symptoms at the time and isolated in the other part of the house for weeks( Incidentally he loved those two weeks and so did Uber Eats) until we were out of isolation. He told me that he had weird aftertaste with flood for a few weeks that caused him to not want to eat much.
I am unvaxxed. I have felt from the beginning and never wavered that Vaccines wouldn't stop this virus and that some form of natural herd immunity is the only way to diminish this to a flu level event. FWIW, I do take it seriously because my 84 year old father(borderline Diabetic) did go to the hospital and for it and had a few weeks recovery there from the pneunomia associated with his Covid. I take daily supplements of Tumeric, Vitamin D. and I added Elderberry juice and took cold medicine and Zinc when I had Covid the second time.
My opinion is that the lack of statistical data on underlying and comorbidities involving death and hospitalizations with Covid do any free thinking person a disservice. DHEC at one point showed all deaths and the comorbidities an it showed that 80 percent of deaths were to people with at least two comorbodities with the two most prevelant being heart disease and diabetes. I am not Anti vax. I just take care to not use medicines to fix underlying health issues. The reason why our country has had so many deaths compared to other countries is precisely those underlying health issues. If the CDC wants to save lives instead of pushing drugs they would tell Americans to drop 2 pants sizes and get outside more. I dont' want to sign up for endless boosters I am sorry. Why not invest in making monoclonal antibodies more available.
It is possible that taking the vaccine will maybe keep someone out of the hospital but the lack of transparency and slow walking of the data will keep me from giving it to my child and probably myself.

Just cancel your subscription and start a new one. I’m doing that soon as I can’t get reinstated on tMB. I literally just poked some fun at the mods there and was permabanned for it. I’ve asked here a couple times via email with no response at all.
21 posters said they themselves had Covid twice. 12 vaccinated, 6 unvaccinated, 3 did not specify.
16 people said they knew others who had Covid twice. They said 10 were vaccinated, 3 unvaccinated, and 3 did say.

Twice, with a probable third time.
Suspected first time (not tested at the time), wasn't much of anything. Once w/fever, loss of taste, general "flu" type feeling for about 2 days. Recently, just a day feeling like the flu was coming on, but subsided 24-36 hrs later - no fever.

Our Pastor and his family were out today and it was his second time having Covid. He was fully vaccinated
My initial thought also; however, I teach at a massive high school. That Dec 2019, I had multie students out for 2 weeks w/ what they were told to be flu like symptoms. They were flu negative though. They were all told by Dr that they weren’t sure what they had at that time.
My barber’s cousins sister-in-law’s mailman’s son had twice at the same time.
My daughter had it last January and again this past September. Now my youngest daughter has it and it has been much harder on her.
Had it in March 2020...got the antibody test a month ago...580 (whatever units of measurement)...my doctor told me he saw no reason for me to get the vaccination
Just my experience
Had it twice, at least. I don’t test anymore. First was prevax, other(s) post jab. Mild both times, just loss of taste and smell. Taste returned quickly, smell took a while and still isn’t fully back after almost a year.
Oct 2020 - COVID, mild symptoms
Jan 2021 - influenza, worst case I’ve ever had
Aug 2021 - COVID vax x 2
Last week - Omicron, minimal symptoms
side note: Omicron is acting more like traditional COVID (pre-pandemic) with it being less severe but much more contagious. Be ready, almost everyone if not everyone is gonna get this variant.

If u dig a little deeper u will find that ‘gain of function’ research took place in chapel hill.
The ‘gain of function’ is that it infects humans.
Researchers have been working on Sars Covid for 20 years.
It’s mind numbing what is happening & it sure does look to be on purpose.
One of the 12 Americans that got the flu last year?!! That stinks - you had some rotten luck
glad omicron was mild
What’s the job of news?
Most would say to properly inform the public. That’s no longer the case.
The news business today is to take information and provide it with opinion to sway levels of interest that caters to retaining viewership and the bottom line.
