    Have to isolate for 14 days again without pay.

    I don't even believe the test, have no symptoms at all like last time too.

    Stupid contact tracing, don't go to the dentist because if they test positive you get a call.

        No, got the throat test at a testing center to clear myself from work.

        But apparently positive.

            A marketing firm where the higher ups say no to working from home.

            I don't even think I have Covid, how can you test positive twice in 2 months...

                Not that I know of. Not like we really leave our own offices or go out to meetings any more.

                And yes I wear a mask.

                  Sounds like something you could easily do from home, your bosses are jerks

                    Yeah they are. But good job security over some other businesses so I try not to complain.

                        The guy who invented that test said it shouldn't even be used to diagnose shit. It just measures traces of molecules in cycles so these hospitals just run way more rates then claim it's a "case," and get gov money for it.

                          Trump only isolated for 3 days as he only had the 3 day version as he's the 1st and last person who contracted this version..

                              My whole family had the covid (My mom still does)

                              It wasn't too bad. Slight fever and headache for a couple days and then a slight cough and some nasal issues.

                              My mom(who already has many health problems) has the covid on top of having sepsis and bronchitis.

                                I guess Trudeau will pay me $1000 bucks to be sick. So there's that.

                                    You can catch it again. Any immunity you build up doesn't last (or doesn't necessarily last).

                                      The throat test is not very accurate. Most likely a false positive if you're not feeling any symptoms.

                                          Can I know, where a You from?
                                          I think Canada?

                                          In any case...

                                          In the beginning, the error rate was up to 37%.
                                          After that it dropped to 13-15%.
                                          But the more tests there are, the greater the percentage of human error factors. Now it is estimated at around 11-15%.

                                          But, there is not a single proven case of re-disease.

                                              i wish your mom well.

                                              did you test negative after the first positive? maybe it has not left your body since the first positive?

                                                Look at the bright side. More time for gambling and lots of games. You can make more money gambling than working.

                                                  I don't even think I have Covid, how can you test positive twice in 2 months...
                                                  You should take this time to look for a new job. I own a marketing firm and would never install that kind of policy.

                                                    I don't even think I have Covid, how can you test positive twice in 2 months...
                                                    that seems odd, how long between both positive results? maybe you never got it again, it just stayed in your system longer than usual. maybe one result is a false positive.

                                                          did you test negative after the first positive? maybe it has not left your body since the first positive?

                                                          I think this is possible. IMO, it is only necessary to isolate those most at risk from severe complications and you're doing what is responsibly required by wearing a mask.


                                                          I never got a covid test, but I know I had it. Back in March I went to the supermarket on consecutive days. My energy fell off a cliff afterward and I went straight to bed. I woke up feeling fine and didn't think much else about it.

                                                          Around that time, my hair started to fall out. I removed things from my diet in an effort to find out what was causing it. Nothing helped. Only later did I hear that hair loss is a symptom of covid. It has only subsided in the last few months. Other than that, everything's been fine.

                                                          I recently read that immunity can last for quite some time after infection, and my symptoms were mild. I wear a mask, but I'm not concerned about reinfection.

                                                            Hey man. You join Coca-Cola now too. In fact, you have now tested positive along with a papaya fruit, coca-cola, and a goat...etc. I think the Tazmanian President sent in 2 other things that tested positive that were not human. I can't believe these people are in little plexi-glass sheltered areas with their masks on. Tell me this is a twilight zone episode? Good for this guy to not be wearing a mask in there.

                                                              I'm glad that at least you are feeling well, unrivaled.

                                                              Sorry about your mom, Kermit. I hope she gets well soon.

                                                                Very few false positives... false negatives aren’t uncommon however.

                                                                If it says you got covid, you def got covid.
