Debunked.
I had something, but it was never severe. I doubt it was the virus because I am in that compromised immune category with underlying health issues.
My wife thinks she had it in January. Had a nagging cough for three weeks and aches and pains. I didn’t get any symptoms. I think she now has immunity to it and I think I may already be immune. Might be from have to take the flu shots for 30 plus years in the US Army.

80 percent of covid 19 victims are asymptomatic. They have very mild symptoms or even no symptoms at all. Yet they still may be able to transmit the virus to others. Especially high risk individuals.
At the point where “new cases” and deaths start dropping, we can assume we’ve reached saturation.
I’ve heard others say that as well.They recall the symptoms and recovery.
Based on the large-scale random testing the UK have been doing, this theory is unlikely to be correct. I believe they found only 7% of people exposed.
Husband & both really sick back in January
Hubby got it worse, had to go doctor & he prescribed Zpack, inhaler
Assumed we just had bad flus but makes you wonder..
I probably saw that same article and agree with it in my non-medical opinion.
But in the meanwhile, I will presume that I have never had COVID-19, possibly being surprised with results of eventual virus test.
Probably not, but many U.S. bosses are behaving like their commie colleagues in China.

Was in LA a few days in January. Couple weeks later had a strange head congestion, sore throat, modest fever. Head congestion and sore throat lasted a few days. It was bad enough I remarked on it, family knew I had something. sore throat not so bad, I ate normally. No cough. Never had an infection act like that before. No GI, no cough.
Right after getting over that got pink eye. That lasted a week.
Place I as calling on was short handed, a few people out.
I had a very strange experience with some kind of virus almost three years ago - different from every ‘flu I’ve ever had. My boss had flown to and back from Mexico, came to work with a bug, and I came down with it.
I had fever that would go on and off for a week - had never experienced that before. So weak I couldn’t get out of bed. Usually when I have something like this, it’s over in two or three days, and I can function through it. I was completely laid-out over that bug.
Since then, I’ve wondered how many weird things are probably always circulating among us, but just aren’t as quickly infectious as this particular one is.
It’s hard to say since in the beginning few were officially diagnosed. The question is are more people actually being infected or are just the number of tested people going up?
My son believes he had it in January. He is 27, in great shape. Got an awful sore throat. Drove himself to Urgent Care and passed out.
They hydrated him. All tests came back negative ~ flu A, flu B, strep, Mono... The doctor was miffed...
My son said it was just an excruciating sore throat, all-over weakness. They gave him a Z-pack. He stayed at our house, so we were all exposed. No one else got sick
There have been a few articles published with quotes from frontline doctors that people with Type O blood appear to have a resistance to the Wuhan Flu.
The doctors said they haven’t any idea what it may be that give Type O blood types a resistance to this virus but, that the evidence they are noting is those people tested who tested positive with this virus that experienced very mild to moderate symptoms at the worst have been patients with Type O blood.
They are hopeful this may give researchers further clues as to how to deal with this virus in the future.
What if no one knows how many have had the virus?
Hey, that’s it.
we’ll soon know one way or the other as the various instant, finger-stick IGM-IGG tests that have been developed get validated and then widely distributed ...
I was as sick as I have ever been first week in February. Whatever it was would have been fatal to someone older or compromised. Missed some work. Treated myself at home.
After reading more about corona, I am sure that is what knocked me down.
I would love to donate blood or platelets but cannot because I am a melanoma survivor.
My sisters two neighbors are convinced they had it(In January, horrible pneumonia, flu test came back negative)..so did my cousin(Very healthy guy, runs marathons, was very ill thought he would die, this was in February, flu test came back negative) did they all have it, who knows..coronavirus didnt come here via carrier pigeon in the last two weeks not possible its been here for a while
