    Unless you tested every day, you don’t know if you had Covid. Many people don’t have symptoms or don’t recognise them, which is why it spreads so easily.

    Covid is still around, it’s killing more people than it was at the start of the pandemic, and also giving millions of people long covid, heart disease, allergies, etc.

      Dude. Don’t be a dick.

      First, you don’t have to test every day, just frequently. And I was because two people in my household are immune compromised. Since my kid did get covid, there was a span where I was testing every day, as were the two adults with immune system compromisement.

      Second, I’m disabled and was dealing with my own medical issues which necessitated regular trips to the doctor, so it wasn’t just home testing being done.

      Third, I’m not a fucking moron, and I was in the medical field back when I could still work.

      So, I know I didn’t fucking have covid, or I wouldn’t have fucking said so.

      Maybe not starting from a place of condescension would be a good thing for you in the future@
