@PotteringAlong

I’m confused by the whole “negative test on day 6 and 7” thing because I was told not to test for 90 days because of the high chance of residual positives even though you were no longer infectious.
That refers to PCR tests...

@FabricedeSauveterre

Literally was about to post same as Ex DH tested positive on 17th as well and LFT still positive today - Xmas day in the balance - kids haven’t seen him for nearly 2 weeks as they were just about to go back to him for a week. and desperate to see him Xmas day evening.

I'm in the same boat. We all
Tested positive on 17th, now myself and dd are all
Negative on LFT but DH still
Positive 😩 fingers crossed it is negative tomorrow and fingers crossed for your family

I tested negative on day six. DH was still testing positive almost two months later!

My dd tested positive on a lateral flow test in the middle of October (negative pcr). She has tested positive every week since then on a lateral flow Confused

@MrsPelligrinoPetrichor - rules have changed so if you have 2 negative LFTs you can stop isolating after 7 days

@familybfive - my symptoms started on the 15th - positive LFT on the 18th (very positive - line came up immediately)
Negative LFT last night and tonight - freedom tomorrow!!!!

Apologies, yes they've changed. Should've said ' isolated for the correct number of days.' Smile
