In the past year and a half, ive known 2 people that were really sick with something and one mildly sick with something they called Covid.
Not really a reason to shut down. Maybe what ive seen is rare.
What has been your personal observations and experiences?
I had the coof (or whatever the hell it really is) last November after going to the dentist and having another human being elbow-deep in my mouth. It started with sense of smell becoming muted (not 100% gone, just weird)...then taste followed. My only other symptoms were a headache that would not go away and GUSHING nosebleeds multiple times a day. Did not feel "sick" at all. Lasted about a week. I literally did nothing, took nothing. Smell & taste have been back to normal ever since. No big deal for me.
