My wife had COVID six months ago. Her symptoms were fairly mild. We made no attempt to quarantine from each other and lived life as a normal happily married couple. I never got it. I have not been vaccinated and a recent test showed no evidence of the COVID antibodies. How did I not catch it from my wife?
Some people don’t seem to be very susceptible. My mom is bedridden with late stage Alzheimer’s. I care for her with the help of caregivers, in our home. One caregiver came down with Covid last November the day after being in our home. We waited the two weeks, mom was fine, but after 13 days I got Covid. I was pretty sick but had to get up and care for mom every 2 hours because no one else would or could. There were no vaccines yet. So we knew she would be completely exposed, would catch it, and would die. We had no choice.
She never caught it!!!!!!! So weird.
1. Your story proves that social distancing and hate of the unvaccinated are the same usual suspect that started illegitimate segregation in this country “to protect Indians from Measles”.
2. You probably have a low metabolism or lack the target cells of the virus, thus it prevents the virus from multiplying in your body.
Sounds like my son - he has been exposed to covid numerous times. Has been working in hospital settings since the beginning, has ridden in vehicles with coworkers with covid, has taken care of a girlfriend with covid, has traveled all over the country with a his sports team on weekends and he’s never gotten so much as a sniffle. Does not wear masks anywhere except where required like the doctor’s office.
Antibody tests for him were negative but he does seem very resistant to the virus. His bosses are going back and forth regarding a mandate - but he says he will let them fire him.
Interestingly, a competitor called him the other day trying to get him to work for them. Higher pay, promotion of position, all the same benefits. He told them he would not get the vax and the guy said they do not believe in mandates. To me it’s a no brainer, but my son said he wants to see if his company will do the right thing first. The other guy said to call him back if they don’t.
We’ll see. 🙏
# How did I not catch it from my wife?
Because it is not particularly contagious. Seems to be less than a standard flu.
