Not following. Isn't that a drug for covid?
DW tested positive last week. Daughter tested positive a few days later. DW is negative toady. I tested positive today. Not sure about daughter. Can DW catch it again from me this soon?

This disproves the theory of what happens in LAS stays in LAS!!!  >:( >:( >:(
Yes Paxlovid can reduce COVID severity if taken early, but it can also cause rebound COVID cases. And your Dr if you should take it.
It's unlikely for someone who was positive to catch it from you within a few months.

Refuah shleima, get well soon!

Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

I guess the handwashing has stopped. (This is from 1.5 years ago.)

This article is pretty much the closest to a smoking gun we'll ever get with the Chinese Communist Party. I don't remember if I posted this a few weeks ago.

Haven't visited any of these threads in a while. When was this board renamed (and why such a banal name)?

With China opening will 2023 bring back global border controls and shutdowns?
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

After two and a half years we are B"H in a situation where Covid has faded into the background.

L'kovod the new year, this board has officially been renamed the Health Discussion Board!

In order to avoid a full-on DDF revolution and possible coup, posts in the board will continue to be counted towards you post totals.

Yehi Rotzon that the new year bring only health and happiness to all, and never again should we go through a situation like the one that prompted this board in the first place.

There is a new strain of Covid that's spreading in our communities that comes with VERY INTENSE throat pain. It is unbearable.

we didn't test but no other illness seemed likely because those were the only symptom's and they only lasted a few days (3 max)
from what i know flu or any other type of infection / virus come with fever, congestion ,cough
i felt safe to assume it was covid but hey who knows

either way i wouldn't believe what the test would show

Why not?

too many false positives / negatives
 
different results from different tests
