Informal survey!
People who got infected and were able to test frequently during this recent Omicron wave.
On what day did you stop testing positive? (Day 1=first symptoms or first positive, whichever sooner. If no symptoms, day of ve+ test).
Please RT!
Tests pics welcome!

Results: 43% report still testing positive on antigen tests on day 8 or later (that’s day 9 by CDC definition—they count from day 0). I ran the poll because of the pile of anectodes of lengty ve+ period, all from 2x and 3x vaxxed people. This is informal, but clearly a thing.pic.twitter.com/H6oRJR77Lm

I may have missed this but would it be informative to ask folks what was the latest day post-symptoms they tested positive?

I believe she's asking to see if the CDC 5 day guideline makes sense. So far, it does not.

Ontario, Canada has followed suit with the CDC’s 5 day guideline amendment. I have a 4 yo, 2 yo, and a wife 39 weeks pregnant. The fact that a huge number of of people are still testing positive well after 5 days can freely roam the streets and go to work/school terrifies me

Does positivity equal infectivity? CDC seemed to be arguing it doesn't.
