- foobarian 5y agoEdited-in the year, apologies. It was Jan 2020.
- ssully 5y agoAhh thank you! I am guessing you are outside of the USA. Our testing pipeline was basically a shit show until the end of March 2020 [1]. The first CDC kits (The only tests authorized) didn't start shipping out until the start of Feb, and they were later determined to be faulty!

- foobarian 5y agoNo, not at all - I am in MA. Note I did not get tested immediately, I merely wondered about those winter colds so many of us experienced until the testing became more available. Then around June I got an antibody test at an urgent care clinic to put the question to rest. Mind you the test could have still been faulty, but the mortality data ultimately does not show any anomalies in that time frame and that's a lot harder to explain under the hypothesis that it was C19.
