glad you are feeling better!!
i never got it either, but pretty sure i had it before it was a thing like you.. like nov 2019, when i left asia.. i thought it was jet lag, but lasted like a month, i felt like shit, my sister told me she though i looked like death. it, was the closest to being sick i have been during this whole time.
I always eat a shit ton of garlic before i fly, enough to keep even the v away! haha all types. Covid, and Vampires, and the one that i will not be named, or i will be hated on hahahahahah.
I fly in a week, not looking forward to it.
