Still testing Covid Positive after 8 days

I was testing with the saliva swabs and getting negative results, even though I was obviously positive.
I used a nasal swab this morning and the result was instantly positive.
Some more time off work.

Last year I went to the doctors. She asked me what was wrong. And I said that I believed to have a serious cold and an asthma attack all at the same time. She said: "You might have covid", and she was right.

Yesterday I went to the doctors, and she asked me what was wrong. So I said that I believe that it might be covid. But apperently I had a Bronchitis and a severe asthma attack.

... back to normal I guess.

Thankfully I tested negative after 5 days. I couldn't afford to miss more than that.

Some people will continue to viral shed for up to three months and return positive RA Tests. This does not mean you still have the active Covid Virus as such. If you don't have Covid like symptoms you should be good to go. Don't take my word for it.....Check with your GP.

PS Nasal swabs are more reliable than saliva ones according to my Pharmacist and SA Health.
