Yes another thread but haven’t seen a who’s got it poll.

Feeling really ill at the moment with a few of the symptoms and think I might have it, just wondered how many other PHers think they’ve had or have the virus.

That’s a strangely high proportion that thinks they’ve had it scratchchin

Years ago the owners asked us to come up with some things to show when you were casting a vote.

That ones actually mine it was just after another dodgy mugabe fixed election.

There’s loads more, I’ve got another one about an ITV phone poll which was after loads of people wasted money phoning in for some itv competition after the lines were closed.

There’s about five or six I think. They’re really old now though.

I had *something* about two weeks ago, but have no way of knowing if it was CV19.

I had what I thought was flu immediately after Christmas. I'm pretty big and robust and not prone to drama, but it really knocked me for six with a high temperature and shortness of breath. I just laid on a bed for two days.

It would be nice if it was CV, but Im not sure that I will ever know.

I’m thinking about paying for a test just to prove to my wife I’m ill.

Maybe it’ll show I only have a cold though hehe

I don't think that I have had it. If I have, then I've not noticed it.

So no one confirmed so far.

I starting to know personally people who have sick family. One friends 16 year old lad has had awful headaches and very high fever with vomiting these past 3 days and another girl I know, her 90 year old mum has had a positive test, lives in a care home.

It seems only last week that PH was joking about it, including me. Oh bloody press trying to panic everyone again frown

Well as I said in the other thread my 2 kids I think have it!

My eldest breezes through whatever he has had (he’s 7)

My youngest however is still not right his temp is 38.8degrees he’s got a cough and he can’t take medicine as it makes him throw up! He’s in with us for the 3rd night running currently in tears and red hot! I’ve been putting the calpol in his juice but not made much difference,

I’ve got an oximeter and he’s got 97% oxygen so not too bad and his heart rate is 150

He’s 4 yrs old he’s got a headache and from the temperature tonight he’s been sick so we’ve stripped him off abit got some cool pads on his head and back and just monitoring him

Should be an "I don't think so" option.

I had a cough at Christmas and another just recently, the latter certainly not meeting the seeming criteria, which seems uncertain anyway.

My partner went to a conference early February in Rome, fell ill a week after coming back with some CV19 symptoms (cough and high temp), passed it onto me within a few days - I had persistent cough, high temp and muscle aches, my little boy then we think caught it off of us but only suffered a high temperature with no other visible signs of symptoms. The fact my little boy had barely any symptoms (and kids are most resilient to it), she'd been in Italy and we both had the main recognised symptoms is the reason why I think we may have already had it.

56 yrs fit male.

I've had the constant cough for about a week now. night fevers and aches and pains. If I try to get more than half a lung full of breath it's sets me off coughing. Been in bed since Saturday night with no real change. I'm hoping the next few days will see things improve.

Paracetamol has been a godsend.

What is it for herd immunity 60%?

Looks like a bit to go yet for PHs

Same for me in the middle of February. I don’t really get ill but I got something flu like, that did me for 2 1/2 weeks. Loss of appetite, shortness of breath with palpitations, terrible aches, hot and cold sweats and I was bed ridden for about 5 days. I was also very short tempered, not sure that was anything to do with being ill though.

I think I've probably had a very minor strain at some point
