Just got the call....another positive test.
First go around was 20 hours of not feeling great. Lost smell. Never anything I'd miss work over.
Second was unrecognizable....but had funny aftertaste for a few days.
Third is so far asymptomatic and i have pretty low expectations. Sure glad I had to test every few days at work.....lame.
Likely most or all of them were false positives, since 80% of all positive tests for it are false. The test they use is nearly worthless as a diagnostic tool, according to the man who invented it. It's useful for certain applications in research, but not for diagnosing actual COVID-19 cases. Folks have bits and pieces of all sorts of viruses floating around in their systems, but that doesn't mean they have a case of any of them. The PCR test looks for those fragments, and when it discovers one, it comes up positive, and you are deemed to have a case of COVID-19.
