    Did you get a second PCR test to be sure? I remember when Elon Musk tweeted (2 years ago?) that he got 4 tests in a row, two were positive and two were negative. I can't imagine him having any reason to lie about that, and I myself have always been suspicious of the accuracy of those tests.

    I remember early last year when myself and a few friends all got woefully symptomatic with what we thought was Covid, but all our PCR tests came back negative, so we chalked it up to RSV which was showing it's face 'round these parts at the time.

    The testing place does hospital staff so they are very accurate and correct, not like a commercial lab drive-in which can be hit and miss. They do a full two swab sample, both nostrils. But it is around, never left. No seasons here.

    The sample was a strong result. Additionally it's like a cold but also not like a cold in that the temperature is only briefly surpressed by acetaminophen (Tylenol), leg ache, headache is a bit different.

    Also I can still feel the nasopharyngeal swab scraping my brain haha. The Chinese were on to something with those asshole swabs, I would much prefer that.

    I know medical staff who get the nasopharyngeal nearly every week.. I have PTSD for days, well the D is discomfort.

    All those mask mandates and lockdowns happened on his watch. Why is he whining and complaining about them now, and not while he was in office?

    We all know you have worse taste in music than...

    Speaking of @Overnight I just set up a 30 foot ventilation slinky tube to the window with an inline fan to suck all the badness away as my wife keeps dropping in to check on me. The sound coming up the tube sounds exactly like being on a jet.
