Feel like I had very covid-like symptoms a couple of times. Not quite like a flu, similar, but a little different.

Tested myself every time, always negative. Not sure if it's a false negative, or a variant that doesn't get a result on those tests tho. Almost hard to believe i never caught it tho, as I have been exposed a couple of times too.

This is my speculation too. Been super-sick a number of times. Always swabbed negative. Anecdotally, I know folks that tested a lot more often and only came back with a positive on the 4th try or so when feeling ill. The fine-print of my at-home tests say they're only something like 76% accurate. Maybe I need to play the odds.
