Managed to avoid it so far in this wave. I've had a few scares though and have done numerous LFTs and a PCR in the last month.

You must have felt positive about the result
Me too. And feels like a lot of people on here have mentioned testing positive (maybe they're not online at the mo?)

I think it's more a London thing at the moment.

Had a really lousy cold last week, but three negative LFTs, so I'm comfortable it wasn't covid.
I am taking things really carefully now though. Feeling a bit guilty about not going to the pub, but I will be in big trouble if I catch it and we can't do the xmas family stuff that's planned.
On the other hand, mrs mx is off to her work xmas do this evening.

Factors include the positive u75 people of recent times not having contributed to the poll yet, the fact London is some days ahead and more intense when it comes to Omicron so far, and differences in ages of forum members and the people they are mixing with.

It seems very calm in Manchester at the moment. In October, at my place of work we had 60 positive cases a week but I don't know anyone who had it recently. The incidence in our local area is also well below the national average (but I'm sure it won't last long).

Yes this, lots of people I know have tested positive (all vaxxed) and lots of others have a really chesty cough but testing negative.
I've been lucky so far.

spelling is overrated
Why are you feeling guilty about not going to the pub? I'm sure they'll survive the year without your takings.

Well, some people are as we have 7,600 or so people in hospital. Or do you mean more specifically among people on here?

The people mentioned on here. The 25 at the Christmas party for example.

5 or so of my cousins have caught it this week and all have various degrees of cold symptoms. All young, healthy double vaxxed people.

The feedback I've got it yes, but not that bad. Most have a day or two feeling pretty shit and then slowly getting better.

my other half tested positive on Sunday and has had fevers and aches for a couple of days, Wednesday and Thursday but it seems like its easing off now, so far today she has demolished a bottle of wine and a venetian blind so she seems on the mend. last i heard about her colleagues half of them were experiencing varying degrees of the same symptoms while the other half had no or very minor symptoms, that was a couple of days ago and only 5 or 6 days since the party.
