I guess it's our turn...
GF, fully vax'd (Moderna) hasn't been feeling too hot for about a week. No fever however, no loss of taste. Like a head cold and minor body aches. Finally decided to test her today because it just isn't going away as fast as it should. She's got a mild to moderate cough.
Yep. That strip wasn't in there two minutes before it showed up on the home reagent test. Me? Well I have had similar but much less severe head cold symptoms over the last week or two, but not even enough to take Theraflu or anything. Personally I think it's unrelated but just to be sure I did the test, negative. I'm sure I'll be positive in a few days if I haven't had it already.

FWIW Wife and I have developed major lung congestion for about a week, no fever. Dr. says it just the flu. We have not tested.

I'd go get tested where they do the antigen test.
Daughter and 5yrold Grandson went and got tested because he had a fever and coughing. Both negative for the vid both positive for the antibodies. Grandson no shot, Daughter shots in January.

Dime a dozen...

OP Hope you get the normal flu like one and not a bad one. It was fairly mild for us but my buddy just wound up in the hospital a couple weeks ago. Hes fine and back at work now. He blacked out and woke up later not knowing what was going on so his wife took him to the hospital. Lack of oxygen I guess. He's also a chain smoker and then some...

I dunno about that stuff. Another one of my buddies had rona a few weeks back and got a few of those injections and it messed him up pretty good. He wound up worse than we did with us just taking normal flu meds.

You sure we're talking about the same thing? I've been on this for two years now and it's a pill you take first thing in the morning.

She's sick(ish) right now in the other room, but you know... eating and stuffing her face with bon bons and watching Honey Boo Boo. We're actually feeling a little guilty we didn't test her sooner because she's been going to work, it just wasn't/isn't that bad for her. Perhaps severity reduced by the vax, who knows right? FWIW she was vax'd back in May/June so about 4 months. Quote:
Me, I'm not feeling 100% and I haven't been for a week or two, but my test was clearly negative. I'll pick up another test later today and try again over the next couple days. My symptoms (if you can even call them that) are so mild I would never second guess it otherwise. Here's the thing, I start a new job next week. Like a real job, name badge and time clock kinda stuff. My plan is to say nothing if I don't test positive, if I do we'll cross that bridge. Stay tuned!

I might be faced with the same thing with the new job if I test positive before Monday, I can't just stroll in there and not tell anybody... I was all prepared for a vax mandate showdown and making them fire me just for the fun of it. I don't NEED the job so I can afford to be a crash test dummy on this issue.

Carrie is 58 and has parts fused shut, Lance is 59 and has parts fused shut. We're doing covid tests here my fellow string wizard, not rabbit tests. Hey thanks, but I have to be honest... I am hoping for no flu at all.

I have allergies, I get congestion every time the weather changes. Since there is no fever or other symptoms and I'm a home, why test??
Last year when I was working I tested at a UC. Results came back positive, then negative, then inconclusive all for the same swab.

I really hope our delays didn't get anyone sick, I don't feel great about that. But I mean jeeeeze she's vax'd and masked all the time at work so you'd think that means something.

But I agree with you 100%, I'm just pretty sure at this point in time she'll need an official record to get paid for work time off and in fact going back to work etc.

Antigen test can be fooled by the spike proteins produced as a result of being jabbed (how long since the jab?) not to mention the shedding of the spine can result in transfer from GF to you (probably not likely to result in a positive antigen test).
False positive rates are quite low but false negatives are still a problem. I hope you have budesonide handy just in case. |

Because the flu has been around forever and nobody ever tested for it before all this mass hysteria. You get the flu, you treat it like the flu and 99% of the time you recover in a week or two and carry on with your life. That’s the way it’s always been done, but now the whole world has to crash and be subservient to a flu bug…insanity.

Carrie is getting better rapidly, we honestly should have tested on the 6th but just felt it was head cold or allergies. It was the persistence of how long it was hanging in there that got us to test. We both feel kind of bad she went back to work but what are you going to do? Vax'd and masked... protects right?
To be fair, her symptoms have been mild and it's quite possible the Moderna helped with that. But that's still no vaccine where I come from. I'm thankful that so far, nothing major. We'll both do the test again tomorrow morning.

I checked CVS, Rite Aid and Walgreens. Either everyone is out of stock OR it is not available in California
