The standard covid tests are calibrated for a certain amount of virus in the nasal passages, and the selected amount is wrong for a lot of recent strains. Depending on the specific strain the tests run up to 90% false negative rates.

It's important to get enough rest, post-COVID; otherwise you've got the risk of long-term fatigue syndrome. Sitting in the creek seems like a sound plan.

Environment Canada is being emphatic about heat precautions up here for the next few days; I am hoping for no reasons to go outside at all.
