I had it 4 times last season and twice this season. I got the initial 2 dose vaccine in early 2021 and a booster each November since then for a total of 5 shots. I think the boosters have helped me to not have terrible symptoms, a few times it’s been just a stuffy nose and loss of smell, maybe a low grade fever. I’ve only had two infections that I would consider bad and even then I’ve been nowhere near hospitalization or even doctor checkup.
I’ve got a toddler in daycare and I work as a specials/resource teacher in an elementary school where I see 700 kids a week. So the sneezing in my face is pretty accurate unfortunately.
I wore a mask religiously all through my pregnancy but the last two years I haven’t as much unless I have symptoms of anything. My immune system is great against everything except Covid apparently, it’s the only thing I’ve had in years.

That’s a lot of times. Do you generally ask everyone to sneeze in your mouth, or do you just eat a select few?

Oh no. I wish you the very best of sneeze avoidance.
You are on the at risk group that needs better PPE. Maybe a Hazmat suit. I can imagine now why your infection rate is so bad.
That suuucks. Do you wear a mask? It seems like you are especially likely to catch it whether because of your job, immune system or other factor.
I’m still one of the “crazy” people who wears a mask to work and I’ve only got it once in 2022, but I know it’s anecdotal.
