I would recommend looking at your health

Ive had COVID several times and while I won't say it's pleasant, it's like 3 days of bad cold followed by a swift recovery.

My seventy year old parents have had similar trajectories.

If it's taking weeks, I'd be concerned about my overall health and immune system

Different people react differently. Just like any other virus (see: smallpox and polio).

We saw bad-ass MMA fighters absolutely pounded by Covid. We saw pasty, wimpy Hollywood actors get through Covid with barely a sniffle.

The problem is that you don't know which Covid group you are in until after you get infected with it.

This is why we vaccinate.
