It might be a good idea to do a survey on /r/COVID19positive and ask people about symptoms in themselves vs their family members. If the correlation is strong enough that we need to worry about it we should be able to reveal it given enough data.
Possible list of questions:
How many people do you live with?
For yourself and each person you live with, provide the following:
Relationship to you and other members of the household
I would ask about testing: if there were any tests, when were the samples gathered, what were the results, what kind of test was used (RNA/antibodies), which country/institution performed the test (that last one might help infer what kind of test was used)

Underlying health complications
Confirmed positive / experiencing symptoms / symptom-free
If experiencing symptoms

Which symptoms?
How long symptoms have lasted
Subjectively on a scale from 1 to 10, how “bad” has the illness been
Was this person hospitalized
Was this person sent to the ICU
If anyone in your household is in a romantic relationship with anyone outside of the household, please fill out the information for them as well
Anyone have any more suggestions?
I think this is a pretty interesting idea.
Ok, I will do it when I get a chance. If anyone knows any strategies for maximizing engagement on Reddit let me know so I can get a good sample size.
