Testing Is Based On One Day!
 
Up to now, I hadn't heard of anybody locally or near my family that had contracted the virus, so sadly, a neighbour informed me of the first to my knowledge.

Just as with the MOT standing at the time, a negative Coronavirus test just proves that on that day, at that time, that person did not have it - the next day is a different day - be wary.

Hi
Thank god someone else is on the same wavelength,
Why can't the powers that be see this!

They need to invest in the antibody test as a lot of people including members of my family believe they have had the symptoms of Covid 19 in January.

It is important to check if you have the disease if you are showing symptoms but this applies to everyone and not the privileged few. NHS workers and the sometimes forgotten carers in the community and care homes should take priority but as mentioned above it only tells you if you have the virus on the day you were tested.

Stay safe

Regards
Steve

Very true. The test only has meaning if the person is tested positive.

Pretend everybody has it and work on that assumption to be safe.
