Genuine question, is it possible to get a very mild form of the virus, you may just feel a bit off it for a couple of days, so you don’t even realise you’ve had it.


I felt similar to this a month or two ago, before it all kicked off, runny nose, cough and feeling a bit rough for a few days but nothing which really prevented me from going to work and getting on with things normally. My wife came down with something similar a few days later too so probably caught it from me. If it was coronavirus I had a lucky escape as I have a chronic kidney illness.

Most definitely. Some studies have indicated that anything up to 50% of cases may not suffer from the usual symptoms we've heard about (coughing, fever, aches). Some people show no symptoms at all, but can still be infectious which is what makes it so difficult to stop the spread of the disease. Hence the social distancing and self-isolating in place.

I've had a mild and intermittent shortness of breath for a few weeks now which isn't like anything I've encountered in the past (I have mild asthma so I'm used to getting a bad chest/shortness of breath). Have I had it? Who knows? My brother in law is recovering after suffering from the classic symptoms but the rest of his family haven't shown anything yet.

The antibody tests will be very informative (providing they work).

And if you are over the mild symptoms it is important that you maintain adherence to the government’s social distancing rules. If you haven’t already had it you don’t want it. And as others have said, you won’t know for sure whether you have had it.

Well that means half the cabinet will have to self-isolate?

I’ve not got at the moment,or had in the last 3 months,any symptoms at all, although thank you for your concern and comments.
I asked the question out of general interest only, afraid I do not watch a lot of the news about the virus so have probably missed where they’ve told us all the symptoms whether their serious or mild.

I take it you didn’t miss the little section on the social distancing rules?

She Who Must Be Obeyed and I started a week before the official recommendation but if we mange the full 13 weeks I 'm afraid other than more beds being available nothing will have changed viruswise



I started working from home last week and am keeping away from everyone as much as possible. I am in my 60s with diabetes and on blood thinners so I'm really scared of catching it. Could be the death of me.

Good show on our leafy avenue complete with saucepan rattling, whoops and fireworks over by Hillsborough park. Several doctors and nurses live nearby. They Whatsapped their thanks on the street group. Might not be a good idea to repeat too often. They need to sleep!


We live in a semi-rural area and we went out at 8pm and clapped. We couldn't see anyone else but we could hear them in the distance around us so that was pretty good!

What’s the betting that when this is finally ‘over’, the first mass event will be a Geldof fronted “Clap for Carers” concert full of celebrities who have avoided (but not evaded) the levels of tax that would have contributed to the public sector having more staff, equipment and resources.
