Neither my wife nor I have been tested. Pretty sure my wife had the original version in the late spring of 2020. All of the symptoms, including loss of taste for about a month. Both of us had cold-like symptoms in early December 2021. We seem to have survived okay without running out for a test. Maybe we had it, maybe not. I guess we really don't care.
Also keep seeing pictures and video of lines of people waiting to get tested. Don't know how many, if any, of those people actually are ill. I keep reading about people who get a sniffle and they run out to get a covid test.
So, how many of you guys have never bothered to get tested for the covid?

I imagine a lot of those folks aren't sick, they just need a negative test to go back to work or whatever..
I've had just one test (negative), a requirement for surgery couple months ago.
Wife tests weekly in the caregiving business.

28 times for me. I'm in critical infrastructure and it's required for most job sites. Also been fully vaxxed. No issues. Probably had Covid 4 weeks ago (did not get tested to confirm), but mild (although 102.6 fever) and over it in 2 days.

Just to get in and out of Canada for a moose hunt. Otherwise operate under the assumption if I’m healthy enough to wait inline for the test I’m healthy enough to take my ass to work!
