11 days after close contact am I safe?!

It's been 11 days since close contact and we've been doing daily lateral flows since. All negative.
Can I think that if we are on day 11 this is a good chance we haven't caught it?

I'm pretty sure you'd of shown symptoms by now

I am day 13 today and never tested positive. PCR was negative on day 5. Triple jabbed!

Pretty good chance of escaping. Earlier covid variants could show a 7-15 day incubation period before symptoms though, but omicron seems to be a lot shorter.

I've had a positive PCR after being a close contact and my lateral flows have all been negative throughout. Never had a positive lateral flow!

I didn't test positive until 11 days after DS did - and we were in the same house, not isolating from each other at all.
