Snot!

DS (17) is off school with sore throat, headache, runny nose, sneezing and a temperature. He has been pcr tested and it came back negative. He was exposed to Covid in school last week (in class, not a close contact). I don’t believe the negative.

Just got him to do another lft and the swab is coated in thick, but runny snot. I have never seen anything like it. It was an unusual colour. Not quite yellow, green or brown. Does that sound like Covid? Or could it be something else?

The pcrs are only 80% accurate. So 1/5 positives missed. Was it white snot?

If it's thick he may be dehydrated.

No very odd colour. Not quite yellow or green.
