Felt a bit under the weather today so did 2 separate tests.
Mouth swab was negative, nasal swab positive. Waited a few hrs and did test again. Same brand for mouth swab, different brand for nose swab. Same results as first tests... Mouth swab test is the V-Chek test, same ones given out at schools. Sent from my SM-G973F using Tapatalk

Clearly your schnoz needs to isolate, but your mouth can run off as it pleases!
Do you get half the $750 iso-cash for a result like that? |

![]() It's fine. I'm doing the right thing. Registered my test results, told my work I'm having the week off and enjoying my time at home. Have experienced upper body muscle pains, lack of appetite, sore eye sockets, shortness of breath when walking the day I was tested. Nothing some Panamax and Ibuprofen can't fix. This morning I will go off the pain killers as I feel I'm over the peak and on the way to recovery.

After two false cases (both times faint positive on RAT, negative on subsequent PCR) my daughter has tested positive (RAT initially then confirmed via PCR given her testing history). RAT was on Thursday, PCR was Friday with PCR result coming through yesterday. Friday and yesterday seemed to be the worst days for her, suffering from fatigue, sore throat, headache, fever, runny nose and loss of taste. Symptoms seem to be clearing up already. Certainly her appetite has returned! ![]() She only has two vacc shots, as she had adverse reactions to the first two (both moderna), so I was a bit worried about how she'd go when she caught it, but it seems pretty mild at this stage.

I only had 3 Ibuprofen tablets left anyway and they were gone in 1 day. The rest was Paracetamol.
Feeling much better now. Just did a test but still positive. The only complaint is a stiff neck, I fell asleep watching my phone and must have had my noggin in an awkward position. My 3yr old daughter never got it off me, and we were cuddling and playing right up to the night before I was positive. Luck of the draw... as they say. Still can't taste much... the wog in me will prepare a bit of crusty bread with capers and anchovies. If that can't get the tastebuds back nothing will....

It’s interesting to read of your experiences, as people with Mediterranean genes seemed among the hardest hit early on.

I blacked out while visiting the toilet early in the morning (wife thought i may have had a stroke) and smashed my head on the wall of the shower when i fell down. The worst of it injury wise was my leg from the shower recess, but the covid is now gone and the sore neck and bruises remain. Happy story time, i had pizza tonight and i could taste and smell every one of those anchovies... so winning ![]() |

Daughter is into her 5th day of iso, and is certainly over the worst of it, it appears.
Today, I did my third RAT during her iso period, and it's another negative. Despite that, I have a sore throat. Psychosomatic, CB? ![]()

Global (figures up to 31/07/22)
During the last 14 days, global CMR's have mostly been dropping with the global average now at 1.102% compared to 1.126% in the previous period and 2.129% a year ago today. Notably; Australia, Denmark, Malta; New Zealand, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Thailand and Taiwan all saw CMR rise. Case numbers increase with M in this period compared to 13.109M in the previous period with a higher 34,514 deaths in the last period for a higher CMR of 0.288% on an unadjusted basis. It should be noted that a number of countries (mostly in Africa) haven’t reported in this period. Overall the increase in cases numbers was 2.5% and the variance in the number of deaths only 0.54%. Countries (with >100k cases) that were above 5% growth rate are Japan (+18.2%); Greece (+11.6%); Brunei (+11.1%); Costa Rica (+10.0%); Martinique (+7.4%); (Taiwan (+7.2%); Singapore (+7.0%); New Zealand (+7.3%); Australia (+6.6%); Guatemala (+5.6%); El Salvador (+5.2%); Mexico (+5.9%) and Malta (+5.7%). Very few countries saw their mortalities increase by much with New Zealand (+19.5%) and Australia (+9.5%) and Taiwan (+8.9%) the only significant growth amongst countries with >100k cases.

I clearly spoke too soon. Had a crap night sleep last night, only getting about two hours sleep. Was hot, but not sweaty hot. And no cold chills. Woke up this morning a little bit sluggish and sore, with a runny nose. Fully expected the positive RAT I got. Not faint like the daughter's. Obviously she didn't get those genes from me. Must have been her mother ![]() Anyone have a Stan Sport account they'd be happy to share their login details with me so I can catch up on all the Indy races so far this season? ![]()

Daughter had very mild symptoms really; standard covid symptoms, but worst last Saturday and almost completely gone now. Yet, she had a very faint return on her RAT and I had a strong return today. I think it's difficult to work out exactly how this thing works. Biggest thing I am glad about is that I stayed away from my mum. She has lung issues that impact her pretty much every winter, turning into bronchitis. No way I wanted to be responsible for giving that to her! Mind you, she was pretty blasé about the whole thing and had no problems with the idea of going out to dinner with me last night ![]()

A politician who seems to understand immunology to a level I haven't wittnessed before.
Doesn't seem like he is delivering an anti-vax message yet an impressive delivery of concern regarding Pfizer, why haven't we heard of this before? If what he says is true then it is indeed a worry.
