It got me last week too. Worse fever, aches and sore throat than any cold or flu I've ever had. I'd rate it alongside mumps and hepatitis A for the misery factor.

During the initial outbreak I was still commuting into central London right up until the very last night. When we reopened I was at the barbers the very first day, at the pub at midday on the first day they reopened

and so on. All before the vaccine. Just find it odd i avoided it until now. TBH I had reached the point where I didn't get the first wave, I avoided the Delta wave, and everyone but me seemed to get Omicron so I kinda thought I was invincible to COVID.
Yeah for me the aches and fatigue were the worst I've had but the cold symptoms were nothing really. Very minor cough, a small blocked nose.
