I too am a 'pretty sure I had it already' person. I have also spoken to others that, like me, think they might have had it already. In the weeks before the story went crazy I bought a dehumidifier in the belief that this might help me eradicate a dry cough that would not go away. Not for one moment did I think I had coronavirus at the time, however, as time went on, I began to wonder. Placebo or not, the dehumidifier was an extraordinary measure and my symptoms had been remarkably similar to those of the dreaded disease. Because none of us were tested and because we didn't go to hospital we can be readily dismissed by those that only believe the TV news. The founding myth is also a bit odd. We have a flying mammal - a bat - passing the disease on to an ant-eating mammal nobody ever sees in zoos - the Malayan pangolin - for this creature to be smuggled into China to then make it to a seafood market to then infect Wuhan. The sources for this are lacking and it is lazy reporting dressed up as science. I am surprised Father Christmas isn't in there somewhere. The Spanish Flu of a century ago was only called that because neutral Spain wanted to know what was going on with the flu whereas the warmongering nations were blind to the epidemic that was wiping out their troops. There is a theory that the Chinese folk brought in to dig the trenches of WW1 were the source of the so-called Spanish Flu. I am open to the idea that the Chinese happened to do the research and pick up on covid-19 first, hence the idea that it came from Wuhan. But did it really? There are 7 billion or so humans with many billions of intensively farmed animals yet it was some endangered species that doomed us all? I am increasingly believing the anecdata is stronger than this 'pangolin story'. I am definitely open to the idea this virus was doing the rounds outside China although there is no proof. However, I see this as like the Spanish Flu, now believed to have not started in Spain. There is a Chinese saying about people too afraid to eat food in case they choke on it. Right now we are on track for everyone to stay indoors for eternity lest a Baby Boomer get it.
