I got Covid back in 2021. It felt like strept throat. Very painful. I took Paxlovid, and was done with it in 2 days.

It’s probably smoke air not just the mist……like walking at night or eating outside

I got it right now, literally like a common cold, maybe a rougher cough but I wouldn’t know I had covid unless tested, like a bad cold or flu
