Probably not.
We’ve been quarantined since the week of Purim (and no, did not go to Purim parties, either, as a precaution)

Had symptoms, did not test.
Dh and ds had contact with people who had confirmed covid. So I'm not sure which answer best suits me.
Hatzalah put out surveys and estimated 70% of our neighborhood had covid19.

Something like fever, headache can be any virus.
But the complete lack of smell without being congested is a very distinct symptom in my opinion. Ive never experienced anything like that.

I mostly stayed home, except went to be menachem avel my grandmother who was just getting over it. I also went to visit my parents while my mother was coughing away recovering from covid19. And of course I went grocery shopping but with mask and gloves.
OTOH, my DH went to work (without a mask), went to shul on Shabbos (without a mask), learned with his brother every night before, during, and after his brother lost his sense of smell. DH had one day a week after Purim where he felt strep-y.
We didn't test, I see no point in doing so. My guess is we both had it with either mild symptoms or no symptoms.

I think you need to be more specific. I think in Boro park, Williamsburg, crown heights most people had it but if someone lives in upstate ny then they are less likely to have had it.

I had symptoms but did not test for covid as they had few tests available and were advising not to get tested unless one was very sick. I did test for antibodies and they came back positive.

I live in KJ. Three weeks before Purim I was in Asia. A week before Purim and the week following had a dry cough, chest tightness, chest pressure, chest pain (but all mild BH) that lasted two weeks, with low grade fever for a few days and headaches. I tested negative for antibodies. I was completely SD from DH after returning from Asia and we have literally all been home except for myself going to work where there is just me in a small office. We wipe down all groceries and DH davens in an outdoor minyan that maintains 12 feet SD with masks. My kids have not been in school or cheder since Purim. Just wondering how common this is?

I live on Long Island. No one in my house has had symptoms and DH was likely exposed at work before Purim but he did the antibody test recently and was negative. Shuls and schools have been closed and we have been socially distancing and only going out for essentials.
My friends and relatives in other parts of LI, Queens, Far Rockaway, Washington Heights, Teaneck, and Israel have also not had any symptoms.

I live in Williamsburg. I had a long-lasting cold early in the winter with a cough that lasted for weeks, but none of the other classic Covid symptoms. It may have been the flu or some random bug. We self-isolated since shortly after Purim, had no symptoms since, and my recent antibody test came back negative.
Did I have it back in February or not? Did I develop antibodies or not? If yes, did I simply lose the antibodies since then? Tests are not very reliable yet, so it's impossible to know for sure what's going on.
In any case, we are still keeping social distancing, to the amusement/horror of all we know, because there is a strong chance we've managed to avoid Covid, and I have zero interest in getting sick now.
