I would say the intensity of the line maybe has a relationship to the amount of antigen you have picked up. The son in law came back from London texting positive with LFT and PCR. The last 2 LFTs were faint and then gone on the third day. Don't take this as gospel. Just our experience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to keep using an LFT every day you have a slight sniffle. Although this is true, what is also true is that of 60% of Covid positive tests are Omicron, 40% are still Delta or other variants. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as long as you keep doing negative LFTs there is no reason not to go to work. I had every symptom going and then some and was too ill to leave the house for a couple of days. Negatives tests everyday and day three back to normal. Needed the money and don’t have the luxury of putting people back and still getting paid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did you get those stats? Today it is reported that in the UK 90% of cases are omicron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't identity a variant type from an LFT result. They are estimates based on random sample testing. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My estimate is that in a couple of weeks nearly all cases will be omicron (or a new milder version, omicron zero or something) and we will be wondering what all the fuss was about.
