Yeah. It's possible there's also an element of "strength of exposure" - if we're infected by someone who just happened by, compared to standing and talking to them for a while, there might be a difference in how long it takes to incubate.
Whatever happened, it's a bummer. But, like I said before, we don't have it nearly as bad as so many people did - for us, it's like a severe cold, treatable with OTC medication.
Also, those services where we can order groceries or food and have them delivered to our car are great (we're a bit far out for delivery to our house for things like that).
