Background is that everyone else is house is positive. My lateral flows are still negative.but. Started coughing. Aching, feel under the weather. Currently awaiting PCR result as I don’t trust the lateral flows.

Presumably I have it given the symptoms and exposure?

In all likelihood it is, and I'd act accordingly.

Very likely, even if you get a negative PCR result (see UKHSA’s recent announcement that they’re looking at the recent rise in such occurrences).

I get it, but I haven’t had a positive lateral flow either so if the PcR is negative too, I’m not sure I can be expected to isolate regardless. On that basis you’d be isolating forever.

In the meantime, yes I’m presuming I have it.
