I flew back from Spain on the 25th. On Monday the 29th I had the Monderna booster, then on Tuesday 30th I got a message from test and trace informing me I had been in close contact with a positive case. Well I had done the Flo test two days after arriving back in the UK and uploaded the negative result. I did another Flo test on recieving this message and that was also negative.
On Wednesday I woke up with cold symptoms and a headache, given the negative tests, I just presumed it was the booster side effects making me ill, like the first Astra Zenica did.
Been sensible I took another Flo test and it came back negative, so I went about catching up on jobs and attended a couple of meetings. I took another Flo test and again it was negative.
It wasn't until the 6th day I realised I had lost my sense of taste and smell, so I did another test and this time it came back positive, so I've had to isolate, I only went out to have a drive through PCR test that also came back positive. I have to isolate until tomorrow according to the messages I received from the NHS, tonight I received a phone call from test and trace asking who I had been in contact with, a bit late really. I told them I could have infected quite a few people as the tests arent accurate and for 6 days I went about my business, just presuming it was a side effect from the vacine.
My wife has had a PCR test and hers was negative.
Glad to report I'm feeling fine, it was just like having a head cold with a back ground headache and the loss of taste and smell that is slowly returning, even though I'm probably high risk with been obese. I did another Flo test yesterday and it was negative. Take care out there.
