I live in remote area and sometimes, I go for 4-6 weeks without coming into contact with the outter world.
Last week, I caught a cold when working outside inadequately dressed. But the cold was unlike anything I have experienced before, both in severity of symptoms and type of symptoms - including weird chest/heart pain, testicular pain, smell alterations and taste alterations, beside the usual stuff.
Just like COVID.
Also, I tested positive on multiple occasions.
How come getting cold resulted in COVID, when clearly I was not infected by COVID? What they did to change the experience of common cold so much?
I'm 99% sure this is not a mental / nocebo thing.
