A former supervisor got it while battling cancer at the same time. Fortunately she’s cancer-free now and survived COVID; however, she apparently has some of the dreaded long-COVID symptoms, including extreme fatigue and brain fog. She’ll forget things mid-sentence.
I know two other youngins (sisters in their 20s) who got it and fought it off as if it were a bad cold.
An uncle, early on in the pandemic, he died from it.
3 or 4 coworkers, and members of their families.
My wife & myself. Fairly mild for her, quite mild for me, never ran a fever, just had the cough. Still ended up working from home for 2 weeks, my wife has been working from home since it all started, so I had to have given it to her. I would never have gotten tested if I hadn’t needed to take her in to see her physician for a new inhaler - they tested her, she came back positive, I tested positive 3 days later.
My sister caught it last spring. She still hasn’t regained her sense of smell or taste.
My brother, his wife, and their kids. No series cases but my SIL lost her sense of smell and taste for a while.
A nephew and his wife.
Several friends and a handful of coworkers. Several of my wife’s coworkers.
He died Monday. Fucking crappy.
Bill. He’s dead. Died Monday after a week in the hospital. Nice guy but paid the ultimate price for his ignorance. Drove to the Florida Keys with 3 other guys. All of them covid deniers who returned last week with the “flu”. 3 ended up in the hospital, and Bill died there.
