I had Delta and it sucked. I have Omicron now and so far I feel like I have the flu / really bad cold with a crazy sore throat. I dont have the loss of breath / breathing constriction / stomach issues like I did with Delta. I just take vitamin C/D/B12 and Zinc along with some club soda for quinine.
I am vaxxed and got antibody treatment for Delta but dont have a booster.
I never get it until my kids bring it home from daycare and I take care of them in the house. Delta I got from my daughter - who got it at daycare. Omicron I got from my son - who got it at daycare.
I think as a parent, the biggest thing is my immune system gets drawn down significantly taking care of the kids all night (literally all night) and then I end up getting it.

They've no doubt caught the virus. It's just a matter of whether or not the virus replicates enough, before their immune system catches it, to show symptoms.

I had it starting December 30th. Really high fever up to 103* on day one, day two was a fever up to 101* but felt alright (mowed the yard), and day three was about back to normal other than some fatigue. I am vaccinated and December 30th was four months to the day of my second vaccine, meaning I should have been within the efficacy range of catching the bug. Omicron don't care. My wife and two young kids did not catch it.
*I had to get vaccinated in order to go to Canada for work, or probably wouldn't have gotten the jab. I had a hunch, like many of us, that these vaccines aren't doing a whole lot for many of us, and catching the bug was not a surprise in the least. I am thankful my symptoms were mild!
