True, but that doesn't necessarily mean they don't, just that they haven't presented the evidence.

I went inside her house, but she decided to put on a mask. That was more than 7 days ago. She just told me that the friends she was hanging around with during Christmas, 2 of them tested positive to Omincron, so she most likely had Omnicron. But I've had nothing, not even a sniffle.

Yeah, it's odd, because my sister and her hubby were here over the Christmas period, too, and probs spent more time with my mum than I did, as they were staying at her place. And for Christmas lunch, my mum's family side went to a business place for lunch. There were 8 of us there. So far, my daughter, myself and an auntie are the only ones showing symptoms.

Perhaps I should go and get a PCR test just to be on the safe side? If nothing else, at least it will allow me to work from home for the next week or so whilst I await a result
