 Day one of symptoms (Tuesday) I took a COVID test which came up negative (bottom). I was absolutely sick af, hot flashes, heart palpitations, headache, etc. But negative for COVID.

Today I -finally- got an instant positive on a rapid test on day 4 of sickness. At this point I almost feel well enough most people might not think I'm sick, and if I had a boss, they'd probably tell me to be in the office breathing on folks.

The false negatives are very real.
