Unvaccinated and length of illness

How long was your positive line?

We've had zero vaccines, but when we tested last year, DH was positive for 5 days, me for 4 and DD didn't have it. Neither did my mum who is in her 80s.

Was wondering if this was the case for other unvaccinated people?

For one week at least - stopped testing after that! Was ill for a week then recovered quickly but the line was still there at that point. I'm unvaccinated.

I think I tested positive for 5 days, but only had symptoms for 1 or 2 days. DD was over it in 3 days. This was last year and haven't had it again since.

All together I tested positive for about 10 days. For the first 2 days I felt fine, then I felt like I had a bad cold for about 5 days then I felt like I was on the mend but still positive. By day 10/11 I was out having a walk with my family, albeit slowly as I still felt tired. This was over a year ago though so I'm not sure how it all presents now.
