So After All These Years I Finally Get Covid

I thought I was free and clear after avoiding getting it during it's "Golden Years"

But the Wednesday before last I got what I thought, an average cold and developed a cough. The cold symptoms are all but gone, the cough, which is not severe remains, but lessening slowly. Something that has never happened before, the near loss of taste and smel which came after the cold had subsided. I went out with a friend the Sunday before it hit and they have the same symptoms which started around the same time.

So while it is being far, far less and dangerous than the many horror stories I have heard, it is annoying. I'm told my taste and smell will most likely return (it is not 100 percent gone) I had got the initial two vaccinations. I just feel a tad under the weather right now.

Anyone else here had it? Perhaps a later version like I have. How long did it last, what was it like?

And just a note to say that obviously, although it is now more a background illness like the flu and not so dangerous, it is still out there.
