I was just overseas for my son’s wedding. My family and many of his friends were there. Almost everyone got sick with a cold and one person lost his sense of taste and smell. So, we’re assuming everybody had COVID. It was just a cold. Nothing that caused anybody to have to miss the wedding or any of the activities that followed. And nobody even cared enough to test for COVID.
There was a lady FReeper a few years back who published a method to recover deleted posts. Maybe somebody still has it.
