      That’s not proof, that’s statistics.

      You’re saying the horse with 2 to 1 odds is guaranteed to win. Every once in a while the horse with 5 to 1 wins with a dead rider on its back. They’re odds for a reason.

        Stats provide probability.

        Is it possible that this dudes uncle had covid in 2019 in America? Sure, just like it’s POSSIBLE… but not likely.

        Again, everyone who had a random ass flu/cold/bug in 2019/2020 almost inevitably thinks they had covid. Look at all the anecdotal evidence provided in this thread alone… but as far as I know we have zero proof of that occurring.
