Covid in the house. DS positive thurs evening (he was neg in the morning!!), DP pos yesterday morning. Me and DP have exactly the same symptoms, I feel dreadful. Yet I'm negative. Pcr and lfts. Makes no sense!
This happened the last (first) time we got covid too. DP tested pos, I started with symptoms the next day, virtually identical again. I was negative until 20 days after his pos test (back when we isolated for 14 days). I was then asymptomatic when I did get a positive! I only tested on that day because I'd just received my first box of lft's (nhs staff).
I find it so strange. Why the bloody hell am I negative when me and DP have identical symptoms. It means I now have to take younger DS who is negative, but well, to school, which feels wrong!
