We all got it (Feb2020) and we're pretty sure it was our daughter who brought it home, as she was working as a men's hair stylist at a very swanky salon
that catered to the jet set. We all got it at pretty much the same time.
When I went to the hospital I didn't even know what I had and neither did the hospital.
I spent eight hours in the ER, no one had masks on where I was, including when I passed out and when I reawakened with an oxygen mask on.
They sent me home with a bottle of Prednisone and a pocket full of asthma puffers and I spent the next three weeks on the bedroom sofa wheezing frantically
with my O2 saturation hovering in the eighties.

Yes, O2 saturation...with a heart patient for a kid, we do HAVE quite a bit of 'gear' at the house.
Surprisingly my son tolerated COVID better than I did, he was very sick, but only for about a week.

I know people who caught Omicron after being vaxxed and boosted, they felt like they caught a cold.
We are all doubled vaxxed and boosted and we're planning to get the second booster.

I am definitely one of those "COVID long haul zombies" everyone talks about.
