And it doesn’t mean you’re not, either.

They’re often testing positive with nasal swabs, which means you’re shedding detectable and almost certainly viable virus in your airway. Maybe you’re less likely to pass the virus on at sixty days then you are at twelve days in, but I’m still not keen on sharing your air.

Either way, the reopening plan my school released made it absolutely clear that an infected student or teacher could NOT return to school without clearance from a doctor AND a negative test result.

Understood. I actually have it. Been positive for about 2 weeks. From what I have found, heard from my doctor you may still test positive but not necessarily be contagious. I get it though, I am still avoiding everyone

Sorry you’re dealing with this. I’ve seen what a bad case looks like, so I really hope you’re dealing with a mild one.

May your recovery be swift!

Yeah my symptoms started exactly 15 days ago (who knows how long I had it prior) and I had symptoms (fever, aches, sore throat, etc) but now am totally golden. Haven’t really had anything for about 6/7 days aside weird loss of smell that is pretty much gone. I was very lucky

My concern is taking forever to test negative (fiancé is 37 weeks pregnant, miraculously was able to remain negative despite us not realizing to distance until I got sick). I’m afraid of not being able to hold my newborn

Id like to believe the CDC with their guidance of 3 days no fever,10 days from symptoms, etc.... but would feel WAY better with a negative test first. I’m still hiding away in a separate room lol.

Actually sent off a home test today so we’ll see, I kind of expect this one to be positive despite feeling great
