Those of you who have had COVID, do you know which strain you likely had?

Based on when and where I got it and my significant loss of sense of smell, ChatGPT says that I most likely had the D614G variant, and if not that then the original wild-type strain.

What about you? And if you don’t know which strain, tell me approximately when and where you got Covid and I can find out for you!

I most likely had whatever the original strain was since I had it in June of the year that it became known. I also had it last summer but it was very mild case.

@istillhaveanameitsrick June of 2020? That was likely the D614G then, it had largely supplanted the original by May

@Zeuro Don't know which strain. I never lost my sense of taste or smell but nothing tasted good...except grilled cheese sandwiches for some reason LOL

I had it twice, the original in late 2020 & then in 2022. The first time I lost taste & smell for several days, was quite relieved when it came back. The second time I didn't lose them at all.

Honestly, no idea but it was hell. I was coughing like I had COPD for like 6 months after I officially beat the bug. Made my lungs hyper sensitive to everything.

Last August, despite vaccinations. And I did lose a sense of taste.
