Hello everyone, last Friday I did a test for covid-19 and it showed a negative result. It seems to me that the test was wrong because I now have symptoms of the disease. Should I take the test again?

I also feel sick, I don't smell it, but I still don't want to go to the hospital to test. Or maybe I should just go and get it done. I'm just terrified of doctors.

Why don't you just take the test yourself in half an hour?

Of course you should!Of course you should! And if you are afraid of getting infected and do not want to go to the hospital, buy a test https://www.confirmbiosciences.com/covid19-sars-antigen-rapid-swab-test/, and that's it. But if the test is still negative, you probably have a common cold. In general, I think we are lucky to have such quick tests available. If people would be able to test themselves quickly and often for loved ones - for example, before every meeting with family or friends - then the spread of coronavirus would soon be stopped. No special equipment is needed to get the result, so there is no need to send the test to the lab. In this case, the patient takes the test himself or herself.
