If you have symptoms and the covid test is negative, try swabbing your throat. .
If you do test positive, get paxlovid.
And it's probably a good idea to get anti virus nasal sprays, on top of masking. I'm alternating between covixyl and betadine.
It may not prevent infection entirely, but it will likely reduce viral load, and may help clear the virus faster. And if you have symptoms test before you use them.
I just ordered a thing of covixyl thank you for that
Yeah i swabbed my throat. Still negative. Doesnt really matter what it is cuz im not gonna go to work or whatever sick.
but it is weird. Would be nice to know for sure whats going on.
The nasal sprays are a great idea, thanks for that! Out of curiosity, how often do you use them? Once daily?
They say every four to six hours. I use them before and after any potential exposure, or in the morning, at lunch and after work.
Gonna add them to my arsenal, thanks!
