Dc3 tested positive (faint) on Monday this week. No symptoms but there are 20 children off school with covid in his class so some of the parents got together and agreed to test the dc daily. The rest of us (7 people) have tested negative on monday, tuesday and wednesday this week. Dc3 tested positive again today but still faint. Think it might be a bit stronger than Monday but not certain and I didn't photograph his test from Monday so can't be sure.
Dc5 and I started with a cold on Sunday. DH and dc4 got the cold yesterday and now dc3 has either caught the cold or has started with covid symptoms.
If we are all (apart from dc3) still testing negative on day 3 does that mean our chances are good for not catching it. Also are faint tests for dc3 a good sign?
DH and I are double vaccinated and boostered, dc1 and dc2 are double vaccinated and dc's 3, 4 and 5 are unvaccinated (all under 12).
I'm really worried as we are all cv. We have been really careful and not been out much in the winter months and mostly been meeting outside during the summer. But the dc had to go to school or we would have been fined.
