But after the fever goes down and I start feeling significantly better, a positive test isn't that meaningful. The positive test remains meaningful regarding the potentential infection of other people though .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teasing the Korean Posted Wednesday at 03:59 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 03:59 PM So I've had Covid for a week and am still testing positive. I feel mildly better than I did, but it's still touch and go. What are peoples' experiences with paxlovid or remdesivir? Are they even effective after someone has had Covid for a while?

JSngry Posted Wednesday at 05:01 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 05:01 PM I'm told that Paxlovid should be taken within five days of symptom onset. I'm also told that you can possibly test positive for weeks after you begin to feel better. So keep those masks handy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted Wednesday at 06:04 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 06:04 PM (edited) I'm currently this week enjoying a major UK open-air historical festival at which Michael Palin (of Python fame etc) was due to appear tomorrow talking about his Great Uncle Harry and WW1. Just heard that he has had to cancel last minute due to catching covid so it seems to be going around at present (in N London at least).

Adam Posted 14 hours ago Report Share Posted 14 hours ago There current strains are very transmissible, and since most people behave as though Covid doesn't exist anymore, it's very easy to catch it. People can still spread it without having symptoms themselves. Yep, there will be a lot this summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
