For those who have had COVID recently, how many days after you started experiencing symptoms was it until you were feeling better? I recently contracted it and feel like I need to cancel calls since my voice is MIA.

I started getting sick the Wednesday before Christmas. New Year’s Eve was about the earliest where I started to feel even kinda normal. Feel pretty good today.

I don’t wear a mask, but people sure do jump back a few steps when they find out I had Covid lol.

If you feel you can't talk, cancel meetings and take a sick day. If you don't take time to rest, you voice will take longer to recover.

That said, my symptoms were pretty mild and felt better in 2-3 days.

I will say my individual symptoms are very mild, but I have all 7 of them (terrible sore throat, runny nose, excessive sneezing, bad headache, fatigue, chills, body aches), so in combination this post vax Covid #2 is actually far worse than my first 2020 pre-vax Covid and lasting way longer!

Fully vaccinated- 1 day of fever 5 days of a stuffy nose. My husband is not vaccinated and had a fever for 9 days.

2 days of body aches. Going on day 20 of cold-like symptoms (cough, runny nose, and post nasal drip) since testing positive.

I’m on day 15 also 😭😭 terrible cough and congestion, doesn’t seem to be getting any better!

I had my booster. Like 3-4 days. Only had a runny nose and fatigue.

got sick christmas, runny nose and headache for 48 hours. all better after that.

boosted vax, btw.

I had a booster and was better in 3-4 days. My sis did not have booster and she was quite sick with sore throat for 7 days

Cancel calls, or join and say you can’t speak but will message/type for the week.

Currently on day six since I started getting symptoms and still have a fever..

I started feeling off on 12/20. Headache was the first symptom, then sore throat and major fatigue. PCR tested 12/22 and got the + results on 12/27. Re-tested with a rapid test on 12/30 and it was negative. I feel better every day but I still have a minor sore throat and fatigue. I basically slept from Xmas to New Years. Triple vaxxed

I felt it start on Sunday, Monday was tough and I just felt exhausted but worked most of the day before falling asleep.

Tuesday I felt worse but it was more congestion and sinus pressure. Today I feel better but am still more tired.

I expect more normalcy tomorrow. I am vaccinated and was boosted in November.

It’s been 3 years since I (27F) moved to Seattle and still don’t have a solid social circle. Not necessarily a big group… I’m talking 3-4 friends who are easy going and not flakey/ hard to make plans with.

Idk if it’s due to Covid, Seattle freeze, a combination of the two or other factors. Any transplants out there who are NOT the outdoorsy type and feel the same? And if so, how did you get past it?

Change my mind: the talk around things shifting to a 'new normal' is overblown. Society's collective conscience is too short-term to enact massive changes to things we are comfortable (e.g., global warming). Yes, it will take awhile for offices to open back up, flights to be full, etc., but within 1-2 years things willbe mostly back to what they are like now and this massive structural shift will have never materialized.
