I’ve been getting the flu shot every year for a long time and I’ve never had the flu.
I’ve taken a total of two Covid vaccines and I decided I’m not taking any more! I’m a Novid. I have never had Covid or tested positive for Covid (and they tested me a lot whenever I had asthma issues or bronchitis!)
I think I have a natural immunity to Covid even though I’m immune-suppressed,. It’s weird, I know . My sister has never never had Covid or tested positive either. When I told my pcp about this she told me her daughter also always tests negative and she’s the only one in family that didn’t get sick with Covid.
And I believe @dadcue here has never had covid either or tested positive for it. Are we medical oddities or naturally immune to Covid?
I still take all my other vaccines, just no more Covid boosters

I’m a medical oddity for sure. I’m immunosuppressed but never have had Covid.. I don’t take any precautions anymore. My wife and daughters have been sick and tested positive and were worried I would die because I was vulnerable. I never tested positive and we never isolated so I was exposed. I was vaccinated but so were my wife and daughters and they still had Covid multiple times. I was told my vaccine might not be very effective because I was on prednisone.

I am susceptible to infections. I have an autoimmune disorder that derives its name from a reaction to infections. It is called reactive arthritis. I am prone to infections but my immune stystem is called “over reactive” to infections. All hell breaks loose when I have an infection. I don’t get terribly sick, but the infections persist and my whole body has pain.
