    I had it 4 times last season and twice this season. I got the initial 2 dose vaccine in early 2021 and a booster each November since then for a total of 5 shots. I think the boosters have helped me to not have terrible symptoms, a few times it’s been just a stuffy nose and loss of smell, maybe a low grade fever. I’ve only had two infections that I would consider bad and even then I’ve been nowhere near hospitalization or even doctor checkup.

      That suuucks. Do you wear a mask? It seems like you are especially likely to catch it whether because of your job, immune system or other factor.

      I’m still one of the “crazy” people who wears a mask to work and I’ve only got it once in 2022, but I know it’s anecdotal.

        I wore a mask religiously all through my pregnancy but the last two years I haven’t as much unless I have symptoms of anything. My immune system is great against everything except Covid apparently, it’s the only thing I’ve had in years.
