No

BarbaraWoodlouse · 09/10/2022 12:39

Yes. Suspect if the person has just developed symptoms you’ll get a much stronger line in 24h.

BingandPando · 09/10/2022 12:39

Potentially? Leave it a couple of hours and do another one

MsPavlichenko · 09/10/2022 12:39

Yes.Line will get stronger if you are at the beginning of it, presumably not if you are approaching end of infection.

NewNameNeededNow · 09/10/2022 12:40

Yes.
There is a very clear line. No clue why pp can’t see it Confused

greenhousegal · 09/10/2022 12:41

What is the advice now? If positive do we isolate for 5 days or just carry on with a mask. I'm so confused now.

Dovana · 09/10/2022 12:41

Yes.

BarbaraWoodlouse · 09/10/2022 12:42

First three responses: no, yes, maybe 🤣

DoubleShotEspresso · 09/10/2022 12:44

It’s only showing up one line on my side maybe that’s why people aren’t all saying yes

CousinTime · 09/10/2022 12:47

Yes

What you on about? There's one clear line, yes.
There absolutely are not two clear lines.

CuriousCatfish · 09/10/2022 12:52

No

uncomfortablydumb53 · 09/10/2022 12:52

Yes, I'm afraid so.
The line will get darker within hours

gamerchick · 09/10/2022 12:54

Yes it's a positive OP.

If they can't see it for certain then they can't see it. That's why they're checking. At least they have manners.

RuthW · 09/10/2022 13:05

Yes definitely

Can't believe it. Have not had it so far. Just had booster on Friday - could that have caused the test result?

SoupDragon · 09/10/2022 13:08

I don't think it's clear at all. There's maybe a faintest of faint grey shadows where a line would be but there isn't a definitely pink positive line.
