But also is cross-immunisation. So...one could have had something other than Covid-19 and still be immune to it. Then there are also the genetic outliers that are just naturally immune to the attack-vector of the virus.
This is just multiple ways of saying what I said. Outside of some extreme outliers every person has come in contact with the virus. But that doesn't always translate to extreme illness or even mild illness. As you said some people are naturally resistant or have other means of a defense that doesn't lead to a significant illness after exposure.
So really the more accurate thing to say is that you never got sick from your covid exposure. Again you have to divide this further into those who genuinely have never had cold like symptoms since 2023 and those who are just in denial about it. I've come across a few people who proudly claim they've never had it but have shown up to work coughing and hacking. Lol sure you haven't.
