Never had it. Never vaxed.

Researchers from the University of Oxford have found that people who have a particular mutation produce a larger antibody response after getting vaccinated.

More vaccine pushing. I've never gotten it even though I've never been vaccinated and didn't quarantine from my wife when she had it twice.

Or, it was so mild you didn’t know you had it if you didn’t get tested. I’ve known people who tested positive and weren’t sick.

Of course, of the people who had it, 99.5% were going to survive anyway without intervention. So getting a vax always seemed a little superfluous even had it worked, which we have learned it does not.

If you have O- blood, your risk was basically cut in half.

Not vaxxed, never got it. Just was in hospital where they tested me on entry.

My wife had it for over two weeks.

I had no symptoms of any consequence, save for a “fever” of 99.something for a day and a half. Got tested for COVID three times and didn’t have it, while my wife tested positive.

Neither of us have the vaccine.

Odd.

A while back I had a bit of a cold, It could’ve been Covid or it could’ve been a minor cold as many of the symptoms are similar. I stayed home and rested for a day felt better the next day and just went back to work in normal life. I know people who have gotten it probably 2 to 4 tests to confirm it, maybe another to verify and then several negative test before they dare leave the house

I don’t think that’s right. If it were genetic, we would see relatives being immune. But, that is contradicted within this excerpt. My husband and I have yet to contract it, although we’re in the “extreme” category, while many of my nearest and dearest have had it. FWIW, the lib faction has been the most whiney about their mild illness, too. So, immunity is not conferred genetically. Sorry. Doesn’t fly.

Had COVID just lately. 1 1/2 days like the mild flu then mayber 4 or 5 days of just fatigue. Had Moderns shots waaay back when they first came out. No boosters. So all is good except taste buds are off.

That’s very interesting...I’ve never had COVID-19 (to my knowledge) and I have the HLA-DQB1*06 gene. The reason I know that I have the gene is that it’s one of the things they test for when trying to determine if someone has narcolepsy (which I have). The HLA-DQB1*06 allele is strongly associated with narcolepsy, although not causative, so that the test for HLA-DQB1*06 is actually more useful in trying to rule out the condition.
