I got a positive test result this morning. 17:23 - May 15 with 16640 viewsPecker

I received the news that I gave a positive test on Thursday. I have none of the symptoms and feel absolutely fine, but 7 days isolation ahead. No idea where or how, as they are really careful at the hospital and I only go shopping once a week. Just as some of the restrictions have been lifted as well. I am sure the Wife and I will be fine, but have to have no contact with the outside world for 7 days. I shall stay off here as much as I can, as not to annoy the hell out of you all. Take care and stay safe.


Edit: It was suggested that my original post was misleading or a lie by one respected and prominent member, so I have corrected. Sorry for any confusion. I can assure you all that it was never my intention to mislead anyone. I hope you all know I would never lie about such a serious and life threatening virus. I shall stay off here for a while, as I am deeply hurt by the suggestion. Take Care Everyone and Stay Safe.

Impressed they're doing that for you on the fringes when I can't get one having spent the last 3 weeks in ITU with the sickest of the lot.


I know it's different in house - or at least you'd bloody well hope - but an older chap I know went to a drive-through at Copdock around 3 weeks ago.

He never got his results at all whereas a mate of his went a day or 2 after him and got his back with a few days.

I've seen one article saying there so many tests they couldn't keep up so loads have been sent off to the States.

And another early this week that said thousands of results have gone missing!

Whether there's any connection between those sent to the US it didn't clarify.

Probably a rolling thing.

I.e. the results you get won't be that day's but maybe from a couple of days before?


The day before they said, so Thursdays test, but told today.

So your usual test before driving this morning was actually your usual test before driving yesterday? It's just difficult to tell what you mean when the thread is called "I tested positive this morning."

I don't want to insinuate you're fibbing, Pecker, but I sort of do.

Lying about contracting covid would be very naughty indeed. Almost as bad as lying about a shoulder injury.

That sounds rough. I've heard the test is rather unpleasant. Don't they pretty much tickle your brain with a swab right up the nose?

That's what I've read here anyway. Not sure if all tests are conducted in the same manner.


Actually the test thing seems to have changed.

Or so matey was telling me. I assumed at the drive through he'd had a swab shoved up the nose and right to the back of the throat, but he said no, he did the swabbing himself.

I suppose they've come on leaps and bounds but I don't get it.

How many have been bought before now that turned out to be worthless.

I wonder if this willingness to test hospital drivers is part of Hancock's way of fulfilling the daily numbers promised.

Must apologise, I thought you were a comedy creation at first.

Didn't Gav include a virus filter in the 2016 update?


It's on his to do list for the 2016 update. He'll get onto that when he's finished the 2015 update.

And the 2014 update.

No symptoms innit.


That is shocking, surely frontline workers should be tested regularly? (While Pro footballers could be tested twice a week or more) Especially as from my understanding asymptomatic people could be shredding...

Pecker needs to put a word in for Badger if he was getting them daily tests!

I trust that's not a dig at Pecker (or anyone else). Some people prefer to just get on with it, nothing wrong with that; some people prefer to get on with it whilst getting support from various sources, including from their TWTD buddies - nothing wrong with that either.

You obviously recovered, which is good to hear
