14 Silent Signs You’ve Already Had COVID-19

Nowadays, feeling exhausted and suffering from a major headache isn’t what it used to be. It could actually mean you have Covid. As of January 2022, there have been more than 319,000,000 Covid-19 cases that are documented, according to Johns Hopkins University.

From all of these, 60 million cases were confirmed in the U.S., with 850,000 deaths. And the newest variant, Omicron, is seemingly faster than its predecessors.

With all these concerning numbers, some hopeful advancements have still been made. There’s now a widely available vaccination scheme against all variants of Covid-19, which demonstrated how efficient and preventive they are against the infection.

If you haven’t felt ok in recent months but haven’t been able to figure out what’s wrong, here are some silent signs that may show you have been already infected with Covid-19:

You’ve got natural antibodies

According to Matthew B. Laurens, MD, MPH, a professor of pediatrics at the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore, if you’re curious to know if you have Covid-19, you can take an antibodies test.

As he said, there’s an antibody test that shows you if you’ve been exposed to natural infection, and there is a different test to show you the response your body had to the Covid-19 vaccine.

Basically, antibodies to nucleocapsid protein will show up if you have recovered from Covid-19, while vaccines and natural infection produce antibodies to spike proteins. While there’s still research to be done, knowing this can really come in handy!

  1. Gee, you mean society actually survived without tests, vaccine and Fauci? At least as people drop dead from the, so called, vaccine it will be declared a spontaneous event unrelated to the CDC, Fauci or governmental incompetence.

    1. by getting vaccinated you help build herd immunity and everyone benefits. You create an umbrella of protection over society that protects the vulnerable.

  2. People who have autoimmune problems will not be able to diferentiate between having had covid or a flair from their issue unless we get tested for the antibodies. Most of us have been experiencing these horrible sympotms for years on a daily basis before covid.
