I understand that there are several ways people have symptoms, or not, when they are infected with Omicron. But I've never seen anything on a "typical" progression.
The reason I'm interested is, of course, all about me. I'm 67 and boosted. My daughter has been back from college for about a week, going out and meeting with all her friends, so I wouldn't doubt she's picked it up and passed on to me. She tested positive Thanksgiving 2020 but had no symptoms and has been vaccinated. She is also in tremendous shape, being a cross country runner, so wouldn't be surprised if she is asymptomatic but infected.
In the last few days, my nose will occasionally run like nothing I've ever had before. Not frequently, or a lot, but once in a while when my head is facing down running like water coming out of a faucet.
If this is all it's going to be, great. On the other hand, if the virus spends a few days incubating while delivering mild symptoms, and then develops into something more serious, I should probably try to get on some of those treatments to limit seriousness.
But it could just be a weird cold.
I've got a call in to my doc but haven't heard back.
Does anyone know how the virus progresses?
