How do I not have Covid?!

Question

Last Monday my sister and I brought our kids over to our moms house.
We had lunch, visited for a few hours, our kids shared cups, we all hugged before we left.
3 days later my sister said she was feeling sick. Headaches, congested, dizzy, fever. The next day her kids were sick. The next day my mom said her and my dad were sick.
My mom has access to rapid tests from a friend and she tested positive and my sister just assumed she had it as well as they all had the same symptoms and is self isolating.
None of us see anyone other than our immediate family. And none of us saw anyone after we hung out last Monday.
We’re all double vaxxed.
How is it that they all got it and my daughter and I didn’t?

Answer

For the same reason why not everyone gets the cold or blu or bronchitis or any other contagious illness if exposed. Sometimes you just don't get sick.

Answer

I’m not vaccinated at all and I was directly exposed on Christmas Eve for about 7 hours.  I exchanged hugs and lots of conversation with this person and I never got it.  I think it’s all kind of a crapshoot!   I hope they all get better soon💖

Answer

You have an 🌈 immune system 🌈. Germs, bacteria, and fungus are all around us. Our bodies are designed to handle some of these things. 🤦🏾‍♀️ It's a shame covid has made basic knowledge disappear.

Answer

Bc it just happens that way most of the time.  Or you could be asymptomatic.  My husband had it in july and he didnt wear masks in the house or isolate to one room and he was the only one in our house that had it

Answer

I’m the only one in my family who got it! (I’m the one that works remote and rarely leaves the house too!). It’s wild. Who knows maybe you had it previously and didn’t even know it.

Answer

My brother was home from the Army and visited with me, my son, and my SO’s mother. Two days later he had a fever and tested positive for covid. None of us ended up getting it. None of us had masks on (he was at my house). Idk how that happens but it does. I thought we would get it for sure and spent $50 on medicine and Microban but we’re all fine 😂

Answer

Same as how my kid had the flu once and coughed all over the rest of us for the entire week and we never got it. Same as my whole family had a cold and I never got sick. Same as all her kids got a stomach bug and my mom never got sick. It’s just the way illnesses and immune systems work.

Answer

I’m not sure. My mom has tested positive the same day she was kissing & all over her bf, and the day before she was with my daughter all day. And neither of them tested positive. Actually a lot of couples I know have caught it but their SO that lays in the same bed with them never caught it. It’s just weird!

Answer

You could technically have it and be asymptomatic. My Niece and nephew had it and their mom kept testing negative. She tested 3-4 times and never got a positive. She went and had her antibodies tested and they were super high. Her doctor said she had to of had covid within the last month.
