    I swear ‘test on the first day of symptoms’ has been the worst advice every employer has ever given just in case it’s not covid. I’ve never seen someone test positive day of symptoms. It’s always days 2-4 or longer.

      At no point did I ever test positive. In the end I want to get one of those professional PCR tests done, because I thought I was dying, and that came back positive, but the home test is never worked for me.

      If I had been asymptomatic those tests would have been useless and I would have got everyone ill.
