It seems to be happening to quite a lot of people who have evaded it for 2 years. I hope that you are feeling better now.

you're right it was inevitable but most of us have been avoiding people since the beginning. Not many people wearing masks though but I will for as long as I feel I need to. Don't want it again - we all have enough on our plates don't we. Take care

The ONS tell me I have high levels of immunity and seem to be teflon coated to covid. 14 days ago I traveled for 4 hours in a car with three people who tested positive within hours of the journey and yet did not get infected. Lol however my grandson did give me nits following an outbreak at his school.

I am the same, covid has been through the whole resthome, both residents and staff, all getting covid at least once! Everyone made it through the isolation, but, sadly, a few have since died, obviously, covid weakened them badly !

Sorry to hear you have had the dreaded covid Maugie but pleased to read you have now had a clear reading. I do think we will all get covid at some point even though we have avoided it for 2 years, luckily the strain is now mild and alot of people are reporting it as just like a cold. I think with all the rules relaxed and people not having to isolate is just encouraging the virus to run rampant, not good for us lunggies. Look after yourself and plenty of tlc x

You are right I am so glad I'd had my 4th Jab as I might have been worse than I was. I'm continuing with the tlc I find it works wonders. You take care too!

Covid is rife Fortunately it’s not as bad if you’ve been jabbed. I avoided it for 2 years too then got it. Glad you’re okay now. Xx

I hope you recover soon. It can leave you exhausted. It seems that after nearly two years of shielding we only have to poke our noses beyond the front door and wham! Apparently, the virus is weakening so the symptoms aren't so bad but it's even more infectious.

So annoying after being careful for 2 years, but it's seems inevitable with all precautions dropped. Thankfully, you have come through it all, hoping you are feeling better and taking lots of rest. Take care and thanks for sharing xxx 😊
