I'm pretty sure there have been non-detectable covid variants in the wild in the US for months now. I went through this with my mother, she was admitted to the hospital for a surgery and contracted some kind of "flu." She tested negative several times for covid. She stayed with me to convalesce and I came down with a "flu" in the middle of summer that had most of the symptoms of covid, except the loss of taste/smell. But my PCR test came back negative.
I also had zero side-effects from my vaccine, which I understand is supposed to make people feel sick the day after the second dose.
- benmller313 6y agoIs the more likely scenario that you just had the seasonal Flu, or that there is a non detectable covid variant?
- mywittyname 6y agoSummer isn't flu season. Multiple medical professions felt it was covid and recommended testing. Some of our symptoms weren't associated with flu, but were with covid. There are some 20 tracked covid variants spreading in the USA right now. Tracking of variants didn't begin until Dec. But even in the few months since they began tracking variant proportions, the dominant strains have shifted quite dramatically. T his is not some wacky conspiracy. Given this evidence, my money is on it was a variant of covid not tested for. You might see things differently, and that's fine.
- Vecr 6y agoOkay, not Influenza, "flu", as in something that causes flu like symptoms. Quite a lot of virus can do that, as well as bacteria, allergies, etc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Influenza-like_illness https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Influenza-like_illness
