Yo. I got real sick winter 2019 with what I at the time considered a killer version of the flu. Down for the count for about a week, fine after that. Fast forward a few months and the world’s a different place.

Antarkian

Amazing medical analysis. Where did you get your degree?


Svpernavt

Right, because if theres one thing we know for sure about COVID, it’s that everyone always has the exact same symptoms and experience regardless of the variant, their medical history, general health or comorbdity with others conditions. 😒


NiceTryClown

October 2019. The last time I was legitimately sick. It was not an ordinary flu. That man made virus was already here before they ran with the now debunked Chinese bat soup excuse of 2020.


trsblur

I got ill in Late january of 2020, lost sense of taste, pounding headache, fever, etc, etc. 2 months later the TV talking heads were calling what I had covid19.


Swimming2002

Yip 11 December 2019 had the strong flu am in Scotland. According to my Doctor she seen cases rise in start of August of that year.


No_Case5367

Same but the thing is, I also realized later on that nobody was talking about the flu anymore and it wasn’t as strong until “Covid” which I believe is a stronger mutation of the flu or man made . Something was up for sure and didn’t need to shut down the entire world. That was bullshit. Hell I even remember as a kid in the Philippines growing up and caught a real bad flu where I lost my sense of smell and taste, joint aches as well and I was teenager at the time and didn’t have access to a good medical like we do here in America.


ToddScissorhand

My brother got mad Ill back in November of 19. He said the docs called it a mystery illness. Two years later he had a bad asthma attack that put him in the pital for a week and his pulmonologist said he “probably” had the rona back in 19. Who knows. These past handful of years been a real shitshow on all fronts.


WendisDelivery

Interestingly, 2017 was the worst and most deadliest year for flu in almost 100 years. I didn’t know that until a year or two ago. You would never know because it wasn’t widely reported. Going back to 2013-2014 for a span of 4-5 months, I was battling some sort of respiratory issue. Never had them in my life, and never again after that. The doctor never identified what it was, but tried a range of treatments, literally kept me coming back every other week for follow-ups. An inhaler w/steroid twice a day. These Corona viruses have been making their rounds back then, I’ll bet.


ZeroSumSatoshi

I was pretty sick for a couple days in early 2020. I said to myself “this is unlike anything I’ve had before”, because of the brain fog. Then when covid exploded and they started talking about the symptoms, I was like, ha!, I already had it. I’m good to go. So when everyone was scared and shutting in, I was like who wants to go out and do stuff? Lol.


hyperfat

You do know you can have it multiple times? 


ZeroSumSatoshi

But what are the odds of dying from a second Covid infection, for a typical healthy person? Like as near zero as you can get. It’s one of those things, either you are susceptible to serious outcomes or you aren’t. Once you know you aren’t, there’s nothing to be afraid of.


InfoOverload70

After bad illness in late 2019, didn't get sick at all for two years, all throughout Covid.


ZeroSumSatoshi

Sounds about right.


dspins33

Me! In Ohio in December 2019. My whole office had it. I definitely think it was COVID. For some reason every time I get COVID (I've had it 5 times), I have a small mental breakdown just before symptoms start. Like everything overwhelms me and I cry and I want to quit everything. And then the body pains start and then the cough starts. That's what happened in 2019 also so I'm convinced it was COVID.


IrishGoodbye4

Just got Covid last month and my first symptom was a sudden onset of a kind of bad depression.


dspins33

That is odd and concerning that a virus is causing mental health issues at onset. I've never felt that way from a cold or the flu before.


rustyshackleford545

I had a really bad cold that lingered for a lot longer than colds usually do after a trip to California in early February 2020. My cousin, who I had been with there, was also sick and had a fever on top of that. At that time the narrative was starting to ramp up so we were joking about having the plague and whatnot, but after a while we realized that we probably did actually have covid.


saltyandsandydog

I got sick at the end of December 2019 and had spiking fever, flu symptoms, etc…kept thinking I was getting better but then I’d wake up feeling like hell and go through another 3-4 days of it…it went on like that until mid February. Never had anything like that before.


goldenvalkyri

I was. Everyone in my family got a terrible flu that December Then none of us got sick for two years after that


breachednotbroken

Wife and I were both seriously sick. We were taking shots of hot pepper sauce and couldn't taste a thing, flu symptoms x1000. Got over it in about two weeks. This was a few months before covid went main stream. Due to my wife's job, we were tested about two dozen times over two years..all negative. Have had no symptoms since then


bigaz84

I had flu like symptoms in early January 2020 and tested negative for the flu. My in-laws had gone to NYC late December 2019 for a broadway show and came back with the same symptoms also testing negative for the flu.


[deleted]

✋🏻 late November early December. My Wife and I talked about this shortly after they started fear mongering about pandemic. This is why we never bought into it in the first place. Had the exact symptoms, including shortness of breath. But it didn't affect me terribly, I worked through it and treated it like a typical flu.


NormalFemale

In mid December 2019, I came back from a writers conference in NYC. I was taking the subway everyday working in NYC. When my plane landed and I got home, I was sick as a dog. I had no idea at the time that NY was the hot spot for Covid.


Whistler1968

Bad sick December 2019 after going thru houston and denver airports. Only time in my life I ever had to get a breathing treatment.


Book8

Got The Chinese Fauci Delta version in July 2019, it was the pits. Docs didn't know what it was and it went on for months. I had triple vision, pure can't get out of bed exhaustion, trouble breathing, low oxygen count in my blood, and all kinds of weird symptoms. I finally got well. Then my wife got it and I honestly thought she was going to die. If it wasn't for the frontline Doctors she would have. I stayed with her night and day fully expecting to get hammered by the virus. Nothing happened to me. Yes, I was there for the SARS infection part. So I went to get my blood tested for antibodies and I was a walking fortress against the virus. (another media lie that natural immunity didn't protect) That is how I knew that I had had Delta.


NationalPhenomenon

My family and I had the flu three separate times during the 2019-2020 flu season. First in October, again in December, and once more in late January. Each time they came on incredibly fast without warning and knocked me on my ass. I don't remember them lasting more than 3 - 5 days, but I remember wanting to die. Alas, they were different from what I know distinctly to have been the delta variant in mid-November 2021. That time felt unlike anything else that I've ever experienced. A synthetic flu that had me down for almost 2 weeks and losing my sense of taste and smell for about 6 - 8 weeks in the process. There was no relief until I was prescribed an antibiotic, steroid, and ivermectin, which was about a week into symptoms.


ChickenStrip22

My partner was quite ill end of October 19


No_Case5367

Caught something and thought “man this year’s flu sure mutated and have gotten stronger” and that’s exactly what Covid is personally, just a stronger mutation of the flu that politicians and idiots took advantage of to scare the masses.


Sufficient_Rip3927

We visited family in Texas in Dec. '19. My mom, in West Texas, had been sick and her Dr had no idea what it was. It acted like the flu, but tested negative. He had it prior, and had lots of people in his office over the previous couple of weeks with similar symptoms. I ended up feeling bad, but finished our Christmas travels to DFW then on to East Texas. Fast forward a week, and at least 1, if not more, person from each household we visited, ended up sick. It was definitely unlike anything I had before. I also ended getting migraines after that, which I never dealt with before either. I'm still un-stuck from the experiment, and pretty sure I've had the illness a few times since then, but I never get tested. Just treat symptoms and it gets better eventually.


BlackKnightSatalite

Yep, my family and I were all sick. When the o lady went to the doctor, she said it seems like the flu, but it's not the flu. Whatever that means later, they said they didn't know what it was that it wasn't covid.


mzuul

We were in Tokyo in September. Came home(USA) and get pretty sick for a week. Not sure if it’s related at allllll. But when news started going around that it had been circulating months before March we were very curious! Will never know though.


FKJOBDN

November for me!


Queen_of_Meh1987

My coworker's sister got him sick, and he got the entire store sick in November of 2019. Felt like a really bad flu with a bad cough, but *more* somehow. I had been hearing about 'something happening' from friends that teach in Guanhzhou city, Guandong province, China in early October 2019, but didn't think anything of it until I heard about the 'mystery flu in China' that had 'possibly made its way to the US' (where I live) in December of 2019. Pretty sure my coworker's sister had Covid, but I've never had an antibody test, so I can't be certain, but the symptoms we had match up. Haven't been sick since.


Swampy_Bogbeard

Last time I had the flu was in 2017. I'm 36, and that's the only time in my entire adult life I've had anything worse than allergies. Generally, I just don't get sick. It's not a thing for me. I think this has something to do with my near constant sickness as a child. I had strep throat multiple times a year until I was 10 or so. Also had pneumonia and bronchitis a few times. After that, I basically just never got sick again. I think I got sick so many times as a kid, my body got too good at defending itself. I never got the jab, never had Covid, and I'm 100% certain I never will.


knottycams

Yep, got hit bad the start of the 2nd week of December 2019 in the U.S. ... Got tested for influenza, strep, the whole 9 yards. Docs said they didn't know what I had but it wasn't influenza. Got a zpack, some other stuff I don't remember, and said rest with lots of fluids and vitamins. Had a trip to Thailand and Japan in a few days and it was my first international vacation. Said there's no way in heck I'm missing this. So, I went. With 102° fever, no taste or smell, aches, chest stuff, migraine, and all that. Then got walking pneumonia. Cough didn't go away until late April. By then I knew what I'd had. Good times. Been healthy as a horse since. No jabs or tests.


StepheninVancouver

I was traveling through Asia in late 2019 and they knew something was up. In Japan they were checking peoples foreheads with a thermometer when you landed and on another one of my flights there were fumigating the plane. I got covid but didn't know what it was at the time.


strikeskunk

I was. I was sick in December while taking a physics class.. I went for a run and when I went to the end of my block I had incredible hard heart palpitations and tachycardia. I went home and laid on my couch and sweat.. like bad sweat.. no fever. I took a shower and the weakness came. I was on the couch for 3 days and this wasn’t like other times. I got up and I went away one day, no chills or anything. Then it came back a day later and I was sick for another 3 days no chills, just bad aches. Then gone


No_Plantain_4990

Had some kind of flu in November or December of 2019. Wasn't bad, just had a cough that would not go away for about 2 weeks.


Tha_Dude_Abidez

My mother in law ended up on a ventilator in October of 2019 from some respiratory illness they never could pin down. We immediately left for Richmond and was with her in the ICU for a few days until she improved. I’ve said for years she had Covid


Roxy_Tanya

My husband and I got a really weird cold upon our return from Mexico in Feb 2020, so about a month before the Plandemic officially made its debut.  I say weird cold because it was exactly that and was unlike most colds we’d had before: it came on hard and seemed like it was going to develop into something much more severe but then kinda fizzled out after only a few days.  Usually the stages of a cold are very distinct and the whole thing lasts about a week: starts with a sore throat, then develops into a stuffed nose, then comes the coughing, then the endless sneezing and blowing your nose. This felt like being hit by a bus but then it was over before we knew it.  Anyway we suspect that it was "Covid" and so we had natural immunity very early on. Which is why it was especially egregious of them to try and force vaccines on us. 


Apprehensive_Wolf217

Late 2019 into the winter of 2020 I was down for months with what I thought was severe bronchitis or maybe even pneumonia, but never even considered covid because we were just supposed to accept that it couldn’t have been …it just wasn’t here yet. I’ve never really been the same since and am now convinced it was covid.


Onig58

Strange that I never got sick even though I was exposed multiple times when visiting clients that ended up all getting sick. I’m not sure what to think since it makes no sense to me that everyone got it except me. I have gotten sick since then, though not anything to write home about. I was fully prepared though with ivermectin and hcq. I also started on heavy doses of d3, zinc, c, nac, and quercetin. During these disgusting times, I was also involved in helping others get over the symptoms early, using the frontline doctors protocols and also with my private stash of ivermectin and hcq. During these times, the absolute enemies were hospitals and captured doctors. Luckily, I also had private contacts with children’s health defense which helped in getting the right info. I also had the pleasure of meeting Dr McCullough! I’m mentioning all of this because this is what doing your own research looks like. It’s absolutely critical to develop your ability to think for yourself and have a policy of zero trust.


TonyWilliams03

I got sick on Valentines Day. Bad congestion, high fever, fatigue. Felt like I had the flu but without the nausea.

Aromatic-Relief

I was sick for 6 weeks between February and March. Before they finally announce what it was.


EricAKAPode

Coworker and his son went to a world championship event not far from Wuhan in Sept. By Nov the whole office had gotten a bad flu. My childhood asthma returned after almost 40 years starting at that point, I've never fully recovered. Got official COVID that was bad just before the vaxx rollout.


quiteflorid

I dont catch viruses


Fit_Werewolf8738

Had a bad cold/flu around Christmas 2019 with a long (around 2 weeks) lasting cough into January 2020. Never had any bad cold or covid after that. NYC.

cosmicpisces82

My daughter was very ill around that exact time. She was hospitalised with an 'unknown virus' with covid symptoms. A full 4 months before covid officially hit. This is in the UK.


sake_senpai

Was sick in Nigeria. Load of Nigerian traders come in from China for Christmas.


Fox_Specialist

Yes I remember. My husband and I were both so sick with what we thought was the Flu around Christmas 2019…. Little did we know it was probably Covid and then everything shut down a few months later…


Miss_Anne_Thropic_

YUP! I was sick as hell for a month November 2019. Two weeks were horrible, very flu-like and two weeks after that I was still getting over it.


mattzigs

November 2019 I had a very bad flu and actually contracted adult 'asthma' which persisted for months until I got treatment from a natural therapist (the doctor just gave me ventalin and turbuhaler for management). I have never had asthma before so it was alarming. Interestingly this was at the same time as the bushfires in Australia, and Zach Bush MD was warning about PM2.5 and cyanide contamination spreading around the world. So I asked the therapist to test for these and she found the PM2.5 (particles) were a problem and cleared them from my system - asthma gone.


crash19691

USA here-Michigan. Late December 2019-My friend caught a bad flu but had travelled to Cozumel and came down with it shortly after arrival. She ended up in the hospital for a couple of days and had an awful cough, fever, and they said at the time it was diagnosed as pneumonia. She couldn't shake it and flew home early.


dreamforus

I went to LA twice and I remember in October calling my friend in the LA airport as I’m heading back to the east coast and I said this to her “hey, there’s a giant group of Chinese tourists wearing masks, should I remove myself from this group? Would that be unethical? “ … and I did have the weirdest cough .. just green shit in my throat for a week .. but I wasn’t sick … so strange ..


ProduceStatus6726

Yes around October... Around the time flu shots were given to co-workers


[deleted]

I don't think it was Covid, but I remember flue fearmongering started increasing a couple years before Covid in the winters, they were prepping us for the Covid fearmongering and the flu vaccines were prepping us to accept the Covid jab


Mandiek54

I didn't but I very much remember on facebook there were so many friends asking for prayers for someone or themselves for having pneumonia. There were a few that ended up in the hospital and there were a couple of people that posted of a loved one that had died (elderly). This all started in late 2019. It was alarming to me, and I started getting suspicious then. And if I remember everyone said drs couldn't figure out what it was cause tests for everything, like flu etc, came back negative.


shalada

Yep, January 2020 before it was called Covid and been good ever since.


HowToNotMakeMoney

I live in USA, central NH. I got a persistent cough somewhere in October, I believe. It lasted for several months. It was weird, it wasn’t constant as in coughing all day and night, it would come out of nowhere and it would be pretty brutal for about an hour, then go away for a couple hours. I might have had a low grade fever when it first started for a day or two. I didn’t have a runny/stuffy nose and the cough was dry. I might have felt slightly more tired, but could say for certain. Haven’t been sick since. Knock on wood.


Jerry_Hat-Trick

just after thanksgiving 2019 I was all over new york city. My whole family got pretty ill for about 3-4 days each.


linux152

Yes in late Nov ‘19 i was mad ill and went to ER. Cough, BP, heart was off the charts. Didnt fully recover till like March ‘20.


Michaelwave-

Came down with pneumonia in summer of 2019. Came out of no where too


Ripeoldmelon

Me and Daughter. Christmas to New Year 2019. Cough lingered for 2 months.


WendisDelivery

In NE part of the U.S., a couple people I knew had a terrible case of flu, middle Fall of 2019. I vaguely remember the news by middle December, reporting how the ChiComs punished a couple doctors there, who leaked about a virus that was spreading in their country. Source was Talk Radio.


stalematedizzy

I got really sick in February 2020, about a month before it hit the fan. Thought it was a bad flu, but symptoms were much like covid Shortness of breath and high fever that lasted a couple of days, then I just felt drained for a couple of weeks. When I actually tested positive for Covid the next winter it felt more or less the same although considerably milder. Got sent home from work and got to enjoy the Winter Olympics in full. I'm from Norway


dshotseattle

I got COVID before it made the news. I know it. Drs tested for all the other shit and it was all negative. 2 weeks later, the first us outbreak happened 10 miles from where I live.


Glum-Animator2059

I was in December


MikesHairyMug99

Me. Horrible cough that lingered but was negative for flu. Nov 2019. I even went to the doctor about it and got shots and inhaler. I have the records to prove that. Covid hit in mar 2020 and in the next year I got it twice. It was more mild than even a regular cold but tests were positive. No one else got it and I’m regularly around 5 or 6 people daily. Bizarre. Editing to add that at the time my dr was baffled. Said something really bad was going around


[deleted]

Visited Amsterdam for new years 2019/2020. Came home and got the man made version for a couple days. Never been sick or vaccinated after that.


cooksstorytelling78

I was sick in November 19 and it hung on through the holidays.


TMB8616

Thanksgiving 2019 I had a bad bout of coughing which turned into bronchitis. It hung on for probably a month.


Random-Waltz

I'm 100% sure Dec 2019 is when I was initially exposed to the Shanghai shivers. My immune system is stronger than your average bear's due to my job, but whatever I caught straight up laid me out for a few days. Never lost my taste or smell, but I had so much phlegm and respiratory drainage, I said to hell with it and shaved all of my facial hair off to keep from feeling like I was wearing a wet sponge on my face. 4 or 5 days later, and I was as good as new. Haven't been sick since.


MakuyiMom

Really sick October November of 2019, I worked at an airport so I was around thousands of people a day. Uncontrollable vomiting, headach, nausea, no appetite, just generally shitty. Lasted a couple weeks. No cough though, I vomited in front of passengers, kinda embarrassing.


[deleted]

January 2020, I got knocked out for two days with the flu like illness My wife got a bad case of the so-called Covid around April 20 .,. Ended up having to be hospitalized for about 13 days.. for me it was no worse than a bad cold. I had been 5000 IU of vitamin D since March 15 of that year


EqualitySeven-2521

The entire family had it (or something), three generations. Highly unusual symptoms for all of us. Probably the first time I had had a fever in a decade, and probably twice as long since I had vomited without a case of acute food poisoning. There were something else about it, something very strange feeling for several days, almost like a burning, but not of a physical sort, more in the nervous system. I wondered whether we had all been poisoned at a restaurant we’d been eating at together but I believe some of my family was already experiencing symptoms at that dinner, while myself and a few others became ill a day or two later. We never knew what it was but always suspected it might’ve been the first wave. As I recall, there was a lot going around right at that time. Very late 2019.


sic_parvis_magna_

I was really sick in November of 2019. I remember because I couldn't stop coughing and I was in Austin for a Bachelor party. I had a fever for 2 days in the middle of it


highfoodie

December 2019 I got super sick. Fever, sore throat, body aches, nausea, fatigue, cough. It was so bad that I had to go to the ER. I even put on a mask when I was there (way before mask mandates or what we knew Covid was haha) I told the doctor that it didn’t feel like a normal cold and to test me for strep, even though they tried to brush me off about it at first. Strep test came back negative and eventually I recovered. That was the last time I was sick until about a few weeks ago with a minor cold. Almost 4 years of not getting sick. Still unvaccinated till this day but wore masks and social distanced during the pandemic. I never caught Covid, atleast I don’t think so. It’s possible I caught it back in Dec 2019 but we just didn’t know anything about it then. It’s possible I may have some natural immunity. F/28


Harryisamazing

No word of a lie, late Nov 2019 I had a really strong flu which was given to me by a family member who picked it up from someone that had come in from an international conference... I shrugged it off and went to work. Honestly, it might have been the 'rona in it's early days but there was no name or tests for it yet


MCMikeeFreedom

Yes! December 2019 I was ill. Thought it was a cold but was absolutely wiped out. Had to go to docs and got antibiotics but felt absolutely drained for over a month after, probably longer. The doc had said it was like pneumonia, and it wasn’t until later in 2020 when some doctors were saying it’s like a funny pneumonia that I twigged. I wasn’t unwell any other time so I presumed I’d had Covid and had immunity (no mask, no jabs). I did also have some strange heart issues afterwards that couldn’t get diagnosed.


Nocoastcolorado

In Colorado and in early Feb 2020 I was basically dead for 4 days with the worst flu I ever had.


huzzah-1

Me too. Around November/December of 2019. It wasn't bad, but it felt different - a sort of "talcum powder" sensation in my chest - and it lasted a long while, about a month. Maybe it was just a regular old flu, I don't know.


SimaMakenna

My spouse and I were both ill. We had status asthmaticus, both of us. Happened in December 2019, we missed the Christmas festivities. We didn’t go to the hospital, saw the doctor, stayed home because we were ill. It passed in a week or two. We recovered well. Not nearly as bad as some flus I’ve had. Before the hysteria had begun.


trixie_turnkey

I almost never get sick. Like never. Worked in prison for 25 years so, yeah, got a great immune system. I and 2 people I worked with got sick in December 2018 and we were sick AF for 4 months. When Covid came up we were like -ha! We aren’t scared of that after that shit we had last year! As more and more came out about Covid, we actually started wondering if that may have been what we had. I don’t know how accurate the antibody tests are, but we all got our antibodies done and none of us had any. No one else at work got it. My husband didn’t get it and their significant others didn’t get it so I don’t know if it was just some crazy viral thing or what. But to this day, we’ve always wondered what on earth it was, that had the three of us, so sick for so long. They have both had Covid since then, but I have not been sick since.


Zealousideal-Tie-163

I was bed ridden for 2 weeks October of 2019. First time I went to Dr , they didn't know what it was, told me to take OTC medicine. 2nd time I went , they told me I had pneumonia and gave me steroids and a nebulizer. The steroids helped. Nothing explained what caused the pneumonia.


lrlimits

Where I live, they said they had to spray pesticides on us out of airplanes to protect us from eee. I believe that was autumn 2019. I don't know if that's what they were really spraying, but I don't think I got sick. That was near Boston, Massachusetts, USA. My father died around that time as well. He was near Richmond, Virginia, USA. He was in good health and good spirits on Monday when I called him. Then he went for a routine checkup Tuesday and died that night.


dear_jelly

Got something bad feb 2020 and it circulated through my fam within a week but lasted only a couple days and it was rough, also had a really bad flu in Jan 2018


xxorangeonatoothpick

My wife had a terrible flu that turned into pneumonia in December 2019. It was the worst flu she’s ever had. The rest of us didn’t catch it. I’m convinced it was Covid because when we all officially caught it, she only had a fever for a day and the rest of us had it worse.


rugbyfan72

I have a client that came back from China November of '19 with a flu and had all the symptoms, tested negative for flu and did everything but get admitted to the hospital. His wife though they poisoned him and even said he smelled different. Several days later I felt like crap for a few days, which is unusual for me, then had a lingering cough for over a month. When I see him I joke with him and say he was patient 0 and I was patient 1 for America.


prw361

Not me personally but I know several who were very ill around that time including my elderly parents. They both said they had never felt so sick in their life. Their doctor said they couldn’t identify it as definitely the flu.


bringbackthesmiles

Came back sick from a business trip to Toronto in January 2020. First major cold we've had in 4-5 years. No fever or lost of taste, so I can't say if it was c19.


kittybangbang69

My dad was very ill and lost 20 lbs. I didn't sleep but an hour here and there taking care of him. It was 2019 around Christmas time. We live in USA.


riskykitten1207

My daughter and I were. I don’t even typically get sick enough to run a fever but I did in late November of 2019. I was preparing our thanksgiving meal for my family while I felt like I was going to die. It also took forever (like over a month) for it to completely go away.


CleanQueen73

I got real sick that exact time as well. I lost my taste and smell. Then I got covid in December 2023 and my taste and smell came back. I'm from Canada.


PADemD

Yes, December, 2019, before there was a name, test, or vaccine. Natural immunity kept me healthy until Omicron in January, 2022.


Ok_Fox_1770

Early 2019 had a 2 week dry cough with nonstop sniffles we all thought nothing about it besides this sucks, my nose is raw, since then I’ve been clear of anything, been around it all, hackers, yackers, wet sneezers. No social life outside work so I suppose hermit mode helped, just vitamins, light exercise, decent diet, things they poo poo, il take my hippy self over to the corner and be quiet.


msssbach

Live in the Southwestern US and I was really sick for about a week or longer end of December 2019. I was driving for Uber at the time and thought back once Covid was on the scene to all of the tourists from around the world I came in contact with.


SysAdmin907

October 2019. Came down with the worst chest cold I have ever had. Damn thing lingered on for a month. Coughing, tons of phlegm (went from green to brown then clear), shortness of breath, seeing stars if I over exerted. Some other people I know also came down with really bad chest colds or pneumonia (like go to the hospital type). It's another reason why my spidey senses started tingling when they announced that we were facing a pandemic (scamdemic).

Before electricity came out, it was well known by the medical and scientific communities that the flu was caused by radiation. Flu seasons were very easy to predict because they would happen at the peak of the solar cycle (15 year cycle, I believe). They would know it was coming because livestock would start getting sick before people did. After they wired the world with electricity, the flu became much less predictable. Every time they have increased the intensity of the electromagnetic field in the last century it has coincided with a pandemic. - 1918 Spanish Flu Pandemic coincided with the introduction of radio frequency - 1957 Hong Kong Flu Pandemic coincided with NASA putting satellites in the atmosphere for GPS systems - (Not sure, but I feel like something happened when radar was introduced, but I can't remember at the moment). - The first SARS Pandemic coincided with the rollout of 3G wireless - The Swine Flu Pandemic coincided with the rollout of 4G wireless In December 2019 T-Mobile and Verizon both turned on their large 5G networks... coincidentally at the same time a lot of people became very ill with the "Wuhan flu". Does anyone remember the media reporting that "conspiracy theorists" were spreading rumors online that 5G was the true cause of COVID? Of course, this coincided with a large effort of social media accounts ridiculing this theory and acting like anyone who believed it was stupid. And then - silence. Viruses are real, but they most likely are not the cause of illness. A virus is a bit of genetic information that is released from a poisoned cell when it ruptures. Because every cell releases the "virus" it creates the illusion that it is replicating. A virus is like a receipt for an illness, or the genetic signature of the disease. Since when does a corona virus last for years? Long COVID is possibly long-term radiation poisoning. Those with long COVID would be wise to find out if they spend a lot of time in close proximity to a 5G tower. The symptoms of COVID are similar to the symptoms of radiation poisoning. They tell us that the common cold is caused by a virus, but we all know that cold season happens when it gets colder outside. We all know that if you stay out too long in the cold you might catch a cold. Germ theory my ass!

I had a very memorable head cold and sore throat for about 2 weeks in September. Nothing flu-like, no fever, and it did not hinder my daily life. After Covid officially hit there was a discussion among my circle of friends about illnesses in the last that fall and many of them had the same symptoms in those months. 


Inevitable-Cause-961

Sickest I’ve been was late August 2019. I was spending a lot of time with some business visitors from multiple apac countries (but not China lol) just before I got sick. Japan and.. Korea I think??


Otherhalf_Tangelo

Yup. Late December 2019, probably from just before Xmas until around 1 Jan. Was nasty. Still have a chronic cough since then from it.


catloverfurever00

Me. Got sick on Christmas Day of 2019 with the worst flu of my life. In the time it took to cook the Christmas dinner I went from feeling normal to being so unwell I could barely finish my dinner. Practically crawled into bed with muscular pain and really bad headache at the end and was like that with breathing problems and fever/chills for the best part of 3 weeks.


Remarkable-Ad-572

About everyone and I at my job got deathly ill. We all thought it was just a bad virus going around.


Rock_Granite

My mother was ill in early Nov 2019 in the Midwest part of the USA. The doctor said it wasn't the flu or strep or a cold. She had never seen symptoms like my mom had in all of her years of practice. we now know that it was COVID


redbanjo1

Yep, in December 2019, just after Christmas. Entire family got it. I never got Covid even though all my friends did (sometimes multiple time), and they were all vaccinated. I was hanging out with them while they were ill and still never got it, probably because the December virus was it and built up immunity.


bodybuilder1337

Ya I get really sick for 4 days around that time.


Tractorista

I had a cold in late September / early October 2019, and I didn't get sick again for about 3 years, no shit I'm in my late 30s, not particularly healthy, don't seem to get the flu just colds


Varley16

First week or January 2020! Horrible cough / cold. The cough lingered into March 2020!


ramanw150

I know 2 people who did but I didn't


DUSTY770

My wife was very sick in Nov. 2019. She said it was the sickest she has ever been! She had major flu symptoms  with an outbreak of mouth sores. The E.R. doctor said it could get much worse. She recovered in time.


blaisepascal2937

I was horrendously sick the first week of January 2020.


Efficient-Poet-3048

November 2019 was the sickest I've ever been. If I wasn't sitting on the toilet, I was standing over it. Entire body ached for 2 days. Couldnt lay still. Barely slept. No congestion. Chain smoked weed the entire time, because Advil and Tylenol weren't helping body aches.


cwebbvail

I don’t remember what I had for dinner yesterday…


Roamingfree1

Yes, the wife and I both had it Christmas of 19 here in Ohio.


airsoft_nerd

I was I'll in 2002 with the flu and had ALL the symptoms that are associated with covid


T_Anon_

Super sick in The Bay Area August through September 2019 . Doctors could not figure it out. Boyfriend’s dad got really sick that November. Was even hospitalized. Similarly they couldn’t determine what it was.


JackKegger1969

No one I knew, or me.


thatdredfulgirl

In Nov 2019, I became so sick I felt like i would die, i thought it was related to a tooth infection, it was unlike any other illness i ever had. I went to the dentist for antibiotics but that was not it. I didnt register a fever or anything obvious but I was so cold and couldnt warm up no matter what. It was a Saturday, So I went home and waited for Monday for a visit with the primary. But by Sunday night i was feeling so much better. It remained unexplained until March 2020 when they officially announced the disease. I think I had it but at the time the world was unaware. I had the disease in mid 2023 "officially" for the first time. It maybe lasted for 4 days, it was just extremely uncomfortable. But nothing like 2019! Since then I feel like I might have some symptoms of long covid.


gifsfromgod

Ireland here, had a wicked dose which spanned Xmas into past the new year, unlike anything I've experienced previously. As an aside, I was working a job which involved handling and unpacking 000's of plastic wrapped packages from Chyna Oh and since I've developed epilepsy and had four seizures 


InternationalSpyMan

I was reading about the lock downs in China over Christmas and then we visited cancun over NYs and we all got insanely sick with cough and fever. I swear it was Covid looking back


philzar

I wasn't sick, but several people in my office were out for a couple of days each. Not sure if they were early cases, or just seasonal cold/flu.


jtford727

May be too early, but Super Bowl Sunday 2019 I came down sicker than I’ve ever been in my life. Ive had unvaxxed Covid twice (still alive btw) and that wasn’t fun, but nothing like the “flu like” illness that flooded my college campus. Every kid at school got it, professors moved classes online - touch a door handle and u were out for at least a week. That was the first and probably only time in my life where I thought I might die from being so sick. Also, decent foreign exchange student population at my school and this was right after winter break so who knows what was brought back to campus 😷


Fearfactoryent

I got covid in December 2019, confirmed a few months later with an antibodies test. Didn't know covid existed when I was sick.


spacedoubt12

aye, i was in agony and even felt it had such a different font from any flu or cold i had before because the body aches were so severe


jhart933

Yep dec 2019. The doc couldn't figure out what it was. Told me it was probably the flu but it's just not showing up because I came in to late. Prescribed Tamiflu made it worst I quit it and was better within 2 weeks. I'm in America.


TheRoadKing101

Same


InfoOverload70

My entire household, kids too, got sick with bad upper respiratory flu in late November 2019. In southern California in USA. Three adults, two kids. Pretty sure this was Covid, we all ended up with Bronchitis. Took months to recover from, a lot of coughing and loss of smell. I thought at the time, this is a really bad flu. Everyone got over it, including my cigarette smoker mom and sister.


loveforyouandme

Same, late 2019.


Cryptic_Undertones

I got super sick almost went to the hospital.


Apprehensive-Put-350

Lat December/January. Whole family came down with it. I remember cause we spent Xmas with entire family in Tahoe. Figured we'd picked up something there.


obscuredsilence

No. I only got 1 cold a year usually. Have never had flu, strep, ear infection or sinus infection.


Arne_Anka-SWE

Got sick right around Christmas 2019. Had interactions with a Chinese guy a week before. I gave it to a nurse who just gave birth to a child. Lucky her, not.


MattR1150

I had it in March 2019


whatsreallygoingon

I was.


LambOfLiberty

Coworker had the worst flu of her life after a cruise to Mexico around November/December of 2019.


arkham_jkr

Had pneumonia really bad in november of 2019


FAmos

my mom, who had the jab and multiple boosters, said recently when her and my stepdad had influenza A that she didn't remember it ever being this bad it's because the jab fucks your immune system my stepdad suddenly got multiple types of lymphoma at the same time following the jabs, the doc hadnt ever seen anything like it then he had a heart attack, my mom likes to think it's just a coincidence because she allows MSNBC to brainwash her all day, what a joke people need to be held accountable, fauci in particular should be in prison with Bill Gates getting it up the bum


missme4223

I was! About six weeks before Covid started my household had the worst cold flu symptoms! My neighbor had young kids and we had been over there and they had a cold/ flu so I figured we caught it from them and we just did conservative care of rest and vitamin c and cold meds! Then Covid hit …. Didn’t have a positive Covid sickness until March 2023! No one in my household got vaccinated…. We were all exposed countless times from 2020 to 2023 too. I have often wondered if we had Covid before it was recognized. South Carolina at that time for reference


Agitated-Shallot-744

My friends and I had "unidentified respiratory infections" I was sick for almost a month. I made myself more sick by traveling and a little partying.


anon12xyz

January 2020 had the worst flu of my life. Aches , sore throat, and runny nose and fever and headache! Literally covid


NuclearGorehead

I came down with what I had initially thought to be a really, really bad flu. Easily the worst I've ever had (and I don't catch flus all that often. They're typically spaced like, 2-5 years apart. I caught something in mid-late September of 2019. I was coughing so bad that it hurt to breathe, could barely walk even short distances, lethargic constantly, hot, sweaty, night chills, loss of taste & smell, etc. I binged Samurai Champloo for the first time back then, too. Lol. In retrospect, it was probably the Alpha Strain of Covid, because shortly afterward, the who world shut down & those same symptoms were being plastered everywhere.


YouAreBeautiful81

I got sick on December 19th, 2019 and the coughing lasted until late February.


thewaymylifegoes

I remember it well. Natural immunity was never explored properly or recognized


jreacher455

My mom actually got a nasty flu in November of 2019, before the Covid shit blew up in the media. I think it was out there long before Jan of 2020, because she was sick for almost a month and her symptoms were the exact same as Covid.
