I got COVID in January 2022. Called in sick to work but did some work anyway, because the alternative was lying in bed feeling guilty about the work. Symptoms: cough, runny nose, muscle aches. First day I missed my Apple Watch movement numbers in six months. Slept till 2pm.

The test was easy β€” quick, no wait. Positive result. This was Omicron by that point. I got it, dealt with it, recovered over several days.

I went back to normal movement ring counts the following week.
