I had Covid back in December and still tested positive 15 days in

: Research suggests those with mild cases will likely test negative 8-10 days after onset of symptoms. Until a negative test people should be considered contagious and be in isolation (even with no symptoms).

  • I was definitely sick that long and actually even longer. Shortness of breath for me lasted about 2 months. I haven't been sick since, sm Wed, Aug 11 2021 at 08:19 AM CDT (16)
    • I don't think there is any data yet on whether natural immunity is either stronger or lasts longer than vaccination immunity. sm Thu, Aug 12 2021 at 09:16 AM CDT (15)
      • Read this. Study is attached Sm Thu, Aug 12 2021 at 09:21 PM CDT (0)
      • Actually there is data and if you want me to send you more I will See link Thu, Aug 12 2021 at 09:12 PM CDT (13)
        • There is data, yes, conflicting data and incomplete data. Amost no one has had natural immunity for more than a year and a half, sm Sat, Aug 14 2021 at 09:47 AM CDT (12)

            • Recent data on cases of reinfection shows that vaccination is more effective at preventing it than naturally acquired immunity. sm Sun, Aug 15 2021 at 08:23 AM CDT (4)
              • Disagree. The narrative is breaking down. Serious problems are already coming out. Sun, Aug 15 2021 at 08:48 AM CDT (3)
                • If you think it's all about "narrative," never mind the numbers, you really should take this conversation to the other board. nm Sun, Aug 15 2021 at 05:46 PM CDT (2)
                  • The narrative is breaking down. Watch how many serious cases Are vaccinated. These vaccines are not working Mon, Aug 16 2021 at 09:34 AM CDT (1)

          • Oh yes, and most of the immunity studies look only at antibodies, which are just one subset of the total immune system. sm Sat, Aug 14 2021 at 09:52 AM CDT (5)

            • It's interesting to think about this. Researchers find long-lived immunity to 1918 pandemic virus sm Sat, Aug 14 2021 at 10:34 AM CDT (3)
              • Too bad they missed the window to test duration of immunity in those who contracted the virus in middle and old age. sm Sat, Aug 14 2021 at 11:35 AM CDT (0)
              • Yes, but even with influenza, variants can override immunity. And humans have never developed long-lasting immunity from common-cold coronaviruses. nm Sat, Aug 14 2021 at 11:31 AM CDT (0)
              • The human body is pretty amazing what it can do. nm Sat, Aug 14 2021 at 10:37 AM CDT (0)
