havent seen that in the pnw, yet - though a flu bug is making its rounds, I had it this week and was down for most of the week. or maybe it was covid. similar symptoms
puget sound here - we've had waves of covid and rsv come through the schools. and practically no one wears a mask lol. fml
I tested 4 times, 3 negative for covid, one positive, a couple months back. It's def out there, but I think the older style tests aren't as good at catching it early.
:| glad I was able to get my booster recently though.
You didn't need a covid booster so soon after testing positive, just for future reference.
And just ignore the negative results - the RATs have a high false negative rate so that's expected. Yea, they need the stars to align to show positive.
perhaps but I didn't want to wait until any natural antibodies waned before trying to find a covid booster in the middle of the winter.
Seattle here and got a cold the other week from work. Everyone was coughing and sneezing. Felt like crap the following day
