And I was one of them! Sicker than I had ever been, a cough so deep I could hardly stop. I even pulled a groin muscle I was coughing so hard ... that took months to fully heal. I've never had laryngitis until that illness, could barely talk for a few days. Sickest I've ever been from a flu or cold ... I've had pneumonia and bronchitis a few times in my life, this was worse. I was down hard for most of 10 days, recovery was a couple weeks to feel somewhat normal. I didn't bother to see a doctor.
Edit - and I haven't been sick since then. Never caught covid19 thereafter either. It was a very notable event for me, damn sick, I'll never forget it.
