Had covid over Christmas, isolation ends tonight, but I had a negative test on Saturday then its was positive again Sunday, yesterday it was negative but I think I can see a very faint line on tonight's test.
Can anyone else see if?

After your 10 days your fine you shouldn't test for another 90 days after a postive

Sanch1 · 04/01/2022 18:23

If you've completed 10 days it doesn't matter, you're free!

6demandingchildren · 04/01/2022 18:24

It's 10 days tomorrow, so I'm free tomorrow no matter what but I don't really want to go out until I have the 2 negatives.

Whitty just covered this in the press conference but I was only half listening to that bit... You could find his answer which might help you.

You only need 2 negatives if you are coming out of isolation after 7 days

It could be months, if you've done 10 days then go out.

Yes, its positive, but if you've done your 10 days, you are free.

I'm not so sure that it's positive. Tests left for a while can show a faint block of pink that covers the are from the T to above the C. Regardless, if you've had covid you may still produce a positive LFT if you have lingering T cells for a period of time afterwards. You won't be contagious though. Again, regardless, as you've had covid and have completed your isolation period, you're free to go out.

There's a little line but it doesn't matter if you've done your 10 days

Bobholll · 06/01/2022 11:36

You’ve done your 10 days, go free. You don’t need a negative LF. You almost certainly aren’t contagious anymore.

There’s a small chance you could continue to post positive for weeks. Hence why you can go free at 10 days regardless as most people aren’t infectious past 7 days so being cautious with 10!
