Did you manage to avoid covid19?

Seems like a lot of people caught it - just wondered whether any of you did?

As far as I know I didn’t, but it wouldn’t surprise me if I had and just wasn’t aware of it…

I managed to avoid COVID, though I know plenty of people who were infected. I signed up for the vaccine about 3 weeks ago, and the auto-response indicated someone would call or email when they had a dose for me.
