Someone I know took a Covid test - tested negative.

The doctor's recommendation was still isolate for 10-14 days because the test has "far more false negatives than false positives."

WTF get tested then? If you test negative or positive, it's the same - isolate.

I tested negative 2 times despite having identical symptoms as my wife who tested positive and my kids that tested positive.

Same thing with vaccines

Get a vaccine and you still have to wear a mask or three, socially distance and isolate.

I think the new more accurate test is going to involve the flipping of a coin.

Do I have Covid, and should I isolate?

Many, many questions still left unanswered about the Chyna virus. First it was don't wear a mask, now it's wear 3. Then hydrochloroquin (sp) was bad, bad, bad..and now it's ok. Vitamin d, same. Get the vax but the vax doesn't actually protect you..or anyone else and you still must wear a mask..just cause. And my very most favorite. 2 weeks to slow the spread....a year later. It amounts to a virus that can be deadly for some but is probably not the world ending event that they were hoping for. Don't worry though, I'm sure they're working on the next one.
