Hands up if you caught Covid there?

[gigpusher]

Looks like myself and @Mr Gigpusher have also joined the Covid club. 

[franswa]

I'm joining the club as well.

I've had no voice since Saturday evening (mainly due to the Don't Look Back in Anger / Hey Jude massive singalongs). I've added to that some cough, light fever and dizziness. I thought it was the classic post-Glasto symptoms, but they haven't disappear

[CaledonianGonzo]

A first person in our group has it, although I'm still testing negative.

My entire group has it (12 people), except three of us tested negative (including me). I thought I might have gotten away with it as I had it about three months ago.

However I have now woken up with a sore throat and a temp so will be testing again later and would be shocked if I didn't have it.

Looks like me and the wife in the club. I was meant to be going to Edgbaston on Sat but looks like that’ll be knocked on the head. Gutted.

SIGH. Third bloody time...

Still worth it, I actually feel ok (slight cough, stuffy nose).

Hope you are all OK, take care!

[noonard]

Yep, another two positive tests here this morning, and a mate tested positive yesterday.

What with this and Twitter it's starting to sound like you're in the minority if you *didn't* get it...

[Billy Corgan's Ego]

First timer and it's kicking my ass. Feel so bad. Doubt could have got it at a worse time (after 5 day bender)

[Crazyfool01]

First timer here … I guess now my worries about getting it will subside …. Cough and sore throat currently … let’s see how things go from here

Same - covid virgin too! Bit breathless and cough/sore throat so far.

Being back at work is paining me more 😀

[lingle]

If you keep replying I will keep replying - give your own head a wobble.

It will never be over - the virus is endemic.  You need to know what that means.

it isn't endemic. People are treating it as if it is because sick of worrying about it, but it isn't endemic.

[*biggreg*]

Yep, after avoiding it all this time and being vaxxed to the max, I'm another first time positive tester upon returning home. Just sore throat / headache / general aches although assumed that was due to the singing / over indulgence / walking.

[Alvoram]

3 full days of symptoms now... Just did a test and still negative... Think I'm in the clear when it comes to Covid, but will still take a test for the next couple of days. 

[hodgey123]

Wonder why a lot of people seem to be first timers, including me! I am also being kicked in the ass by it and have had to take today off sick.

No residual immunity from the Omicron wave a few months back?

[Maurice Mecca]

Me and 3 friends have all tested positive  since returning. Thankfully it feels like the general fatigue you get after 5 heavy days but sleep doesn’t fix it. Yet. 

[BrandoTrillkor17]

Yep - tested positive yesterday morning.... 4 more in my group also.

 

Just feels like the Glastonbury blues though...

This is getting crazy!! It might be more efficient to start a “who didn’t catch COVID” thread soon!

I wish you all a speedy and fulsome recovery.

Just tested positive.  Second time having it.  Not too bad at the moment.  Dry cough, sneezing, headache and fuzzy head. 

[Porcelina]

3/3 in our group, all first timers, didn't even go into a tent other than Just Mustard on Sunday morning!

I wasn't at the festival, but had it a couple of weeks ago, for the 1st time.  I'd avoided it despite being in close proximity and taking no precautions with others in the household having had it on 6 occasions since the start of the pandemic.

I think the BA4/BA5 version is more able to get past immunity and I've heard of more '1st timers' getting it in the last few weeks.  But also as population we're mixing more, so it's a combination I suspect.

EDIT: what others have said above! 🙂

Also, I hope everyone feels much better v soon.

I would like to see a proper poll, as this thread is very leading... 

I get the press argument, but they're gonna pick up on it either way. Hell, they'd already declared it a super spreading event before it even began, and nobody could really argue with that, as it was obviously going to be. 

But it would be nice to see the percentages here.
