Do you regularly consume a CBD-containing product (Marijuana, CBD oil, medical marijuana, etc) Please be specific about strain
Have you been infected by COVID, how long did it last, and what were your symptoms?

I'll go first:

No
Yes, in March 2020, it lasted a month to a year depending on where you draw the line between long-COVID and acute COVID. Symptoms were fatigue, chills, high heartbeat, and a lower quantity of pee

Yes. While I tend to lean towards larger THC:CBD ratios, I consume something with cbd in it daily. Most of the time, this is an edible with 30mg THC and 5mg CBD. I'm not sure what the variability of the dosage is, because the medical cannabis system in my state is fucked up and I don't think every company is held to the same standards of instrumentation/protocol. I also vaporize flower, but I'm even less certain about dosage with that method because I titrate to the desired effects.
To the best of my knowledge, no. Here are the limits to my (un)certainty in that statement:

While the institution employing me offered the service, I did 2 PCR tests per week (between late 2020 and early 2022). Since then, I have taken a sequence of rapid tests on the few occasions I've had symptoms. The only time I've felt really ill (and not just having a scratchy throat or stuffy nose, symptoms which also prompted rapid tests), I had conjunctivitis. I tested the discharge from my eyes, nose, and throat with mulitple rapid tests during that infection and all were negative. I'm extremely lucky that I was able to live reclusively for the early years of the pandemic, but I wouldn't be terribly surprised if I had an asymptomatic infection at some point despite considerable caution.
