Hands up if you caught Covid there?

[howlin_pete]

I felt awful yesterday (fever and aching all over) and tested positive this morning. Several others in the group have cold symptoms but no one else has had a positive test. Maybe there was another bug going around?

All of my group have it but I’m clear so far

Felt rough, heavy chest and horrible cough. Thick, bold line almost instantly.

Almost certainly will be multiple things going round - back in previous festivals it was always relatively normal to come back with a cold.

we spent a lot of time outside, jsut naturally, so it's the shuttle buses I'd say were most likely for us.

Me and my Wife felt rough Monday afternoon and we just tested. Boom. First time getting it. Feels like a bad cold for us. 

[giantkatestacks]

husband positive, me negative but I have already had it a couple of months ago.

[HalfAnIdiot]

Feeling a bit off colour last night, woke up this morning with coughing sneezing and shivers. Tested positive for the first time ☹️

[stonecircle12]

Just joined the positive club, had covid in December already and my last jab in Febuary 😷

[Dreamingofsunnydays]

Just had a NHS notification from the app…haven’t tested as currently in a spa hotel and probably won’t unless we get symptoms. 

[Spacey]

I tested positive this morning. First time. 

[midlifecrisis]

Felt rubbish on Sunday, thought it was the normal dusty/no sleep/too old Glasto cold, turns out it isn't. Tested positive this morning, yes same for me, feels like a bad head cold, sore throat and sniffles. Also 1st time getting it.

Have felt lethargic the last 2 days however thought it was just the usual Glasto come down. Tested a few mins ago and positive. First time having Covid too - altho kind of expected to get it there!

Snap 👆 Only symptom so far is a groggy throat, but I've had that since Friday morning and it's usually cleared up after a few drinks and warming the voice up etc. Touch wood it doesn't get much worse.

If its the proximity one you'll more likely have been outside at the time and probably not directly next to the person 

[moogster]

Both negative this morning but I don't trust it. I work with some folks >60 and with health issues so will try to keep distance and repeat testing in the next couple of days.

can take a few days to show .... by friday we will all know if we escaped it at Glastonbury or not 

A poll would be interesting at the weekend, though could get used by media to make a negative point so might not actually do it. This thread is obviously quite leading and biased towards yes's 

[SleepyBob]

Just hope I shake it off before Friday as I'm off to Silverstone for the British GP. 

[Billy Corgan's Ego]

Another first timer here. Feel absolutely dreadful. I started feeling bad Sunday but put it down to end of festival blues. Covid plus come down is not fun...

This is all part of the healing process and learning to live with covid. These mass transmission events lead to more natural immune responses as well as normalising it as a circulating illness. 

So many people in here saying they have it, but not one persons seems overly concerned or worried about it... This is great. 🙂 

[astrowerks]

Very high % of us who have caught it, have it for the 1st time. 
 

[tjfish]

What is everyone's thoughts on calling in sick after (kind of knowingly) catching it at Glastonbury? 🤔

I’m worried about it until I have it tbh … don’t know how I’ll respond … but I guess this is all part of ‘living with it ‘ please be responsible and look out for those around you … especially those who can’t make these decisions still ( not directed at you )

I agree to an extent, but we are still at the stage where we are morally likely to cancel things as a result of it.

I've an incredibly mild cold (positive test though), and I'll potentially be missing Olivia Rodrigo in Dublin on Thurs.

Whereas I had a heavier cold around 2 months ago and still went to football matches, restaurants, etc as I knew it wasn't covid.

I don't feel we can 'live with it' until the stigma of having it has gone sadly.

Same goes for any illness bud... I'm not about to be reckless with the flu and start mixing with older folk and those with a suppressed immune system people... I'm going to do my best not to pass it onto anybody, never mind those at risk.

I would think so too, living with it doesn't mean willingly spreading it.

You wouldn't go to a gig with a nasty flu and spread that around would you?
