Im assuming hes getting tested every day, but its known that you get lots of false-negative (more that 50%) results until around day five after potential exposure.
And, frankly, with news reports that Trump was showing symptoms on Thursday or even Wednesday, Im really concerned. It would mean that Trump was at the peak stage of transmissibility when he spent 90 minutes yelling at Joe in a closed environment. I hope Im just being unreasonably pessimistic, but I would have to think its more likely than not that Biden has been infected. Im eagerly hoping for news of further negative tests, particularly tomorrow or Monday, as then I might start to relax a bit.

(9,212 posts)Testing negative. It is a good idea to take vit d, vitamin c and melatonin. No more debates, there never should hav been any. The opposition cant be trusted The clinic should not have allowed any audience and should have placed people further apart, and should hav enforced the testing rule and mask policy.

(9,212 posts)I have green tea every day. I had covid double pneumonia in April but I am scared I may get it again or get a reactivation etc. I was sick for weeks, 2 er trips. I still dont feel totally well. Apart from feeling like I had a rubber band around my chest and trouble breathing the back pain was the worst, 3 months of non stop pain and it still has not resolved although it is much more manageable now and not as bad most of the time. I took a zpack when the pain started, vit d, high doses of c, inhalers and more. I had to drink a ton of juice to stop bg crashing.
I was lucky my pulse ox stayed good most of the time. 95 was the lowest except 2 x I woke up and it was 78, but it came back up quickly so hematologist said its ok. I was also on eliquis which I think saved me too.
Yes, do not trust these people at all, any of them.

(1,648 posts)Biden did a lot of looking away and refusing to even acknowledge tRUMP's belligerence. Seemed like he was making eye contact with the audience and his facial expressions looked more like a body signal to someone in the audience. Biden was probably looking at his wife and staff while telegraphing that this idiot is nuts and showing his insanity to all the voters, so I am just going to let him flail uncontrollably.

And some tests are more reliable than others. The PCR test while not perfect has proven to be fairly reliable.
