Either the title has mainly attracted those who have not had it, or educational circles are very different. I reckon around 75% of those I know have had it. At one point around 10% of the school population had it at the same time. Perhaps the regular testing picked it up whereas other settings did not. I guess stopping testing will reduce numbers known.

Early voting days as yet.

If you don't know then you haven't had it....especially if you are really, really old.
Edit...and obviously you have been testing yourself out of concern for your jet setting social circle.

I will never know for certain whether I had Covid, but I did have something with a lot of the symptoms - cough, loss of taste, upset stomach. However, that was at a point (late March-early April 2020) when you only got a test if you ended up in hospital and, while not well, I never got that bad.
By the time antibody testing came along, they would have been well out of my system.

Quite.
I was due surgery at WSH and phoned them late Feb 2020 with a hacking cough. I'd had several appointments at the hospital and felt rough for a few days, could not stop coughing and figured I'd picked something up there.
They didn't want me in (obviously) and told me to call 111 which I did. They didn't like it either and got a doctor to call me within minutes.
He said he didn't want me to go to hospital unless absolutely necessary because for 1), if I had it I could spread it, and 2) judging by the sound of my chest he didn't want me to catch it if I didn't already have it!
The hospital was apparently rife by that time according to doc on phone so if I could cope I was best well out of it so he said. Fair enough.
Cough lasted for 3 months though I only felt ill for around 3 days.

Really depends on the age group. i am over 60 and dont believe I have had it however I am treble jabbed and super cautious ( still wear a mask ). Also I have no small children in my family circle which seem to be to be a bottomless source of Covid-19. Any of my colleagues who have young children got it. I have not attended a mass gathering of any type and don't use public transport. I have reduced my risk factor by my behaviour and circumstances.
