A sore throat is one of the most common illness symptoms there is. There are thousands of viral and bacterial infections that can cause it, as well as many external environmental factors. Correlation doesn’t equal causation, it’s not omicron.
I am in fact vaccinated and boosted & rarely get sick, you think they’ll cover the plane ticket?

😭you may have caught it again🧐
I had a scratchy/sore-ish throat for five days. It was tolerable and never stopped me from eating or talking. Then maybe a week later I woke up and had a very mild scratchy throat for 1 or 2 days then went away again. I did lots of listerine. Really helped me.
I’m dealing with this too. Tested positive 1/3 felt better by 1/7, but keep randomly waking up with a sore throat.
Major bummer, but also glad to know I’m not the only one.

My dad had his cough come back when he overdid it in the aftermath of covid. Listerine and sinus rinse can help nix it.
Does bzy szn count as overdoing it?
Yes! I wake up every day with the dryest sore throat. Tested positive on 1/2. Really annoying

Is it just scratchy throat or also pain when swallowing?
It was less than a week. Sneezing and congestion took a few days longer to go away.
I talked for half a day and my voice is gone again.
I caught omicron five days ago and sore throat is the only symptom that still persists.

My mom still has issues with her voice breaking here and there and she caught it beginning of the year.
My sore throat never went away. It started about a week before other symptoms (so somewhere around 12/15) and has continued about 2 weeks after other symptoms. It’s irritating.

Got strep throat a week after my quarantine period. 🙄
