    Anyone still getting Covid at the moment...? I've got a bit of a situation here since clearly had an asthma attack last night and I don't have a diagnosed asthma. I've had what you probably would call infection related asthma previously meaning sometimes when I had a bad cold that went to the lungs, I'd need asthma medication for wheezing lungs. The crazy part here is that I have no idea if I should book a PCR test this time or not.

    EDIT: After a consultation, no need for a test as it is.

    I’m getting positive results on Flowflex Antigen tests, 2 test completed this evening. I also did 2 tests with Getein tests and they were negative. I’ve seen on here that there are some people who have had similar situations with Flowflex while testing negative on HSE Siemens tests. Is there an issue with false positives on Flowflex?

    Just over 24 hours though myself & my other half both had ours at the same test centre & time & he got his results about 6 hours before I did. My daughters took about 28 hours last weekend.

    My OH tested positive 8 days ago. He had the usual symptoms, self isolated and took over the counter meds. His symptoms subsided and he tested negative yesterday. He thought he was out of the woods but got a strong positive antigen today. Has anyone else experienced positive/negative/positive test results ?
