    When are the Fauci files going to come out?

    I guess on this one, they are going to have everything triple-checked by lawyers, given the magnitude of the revelations?

    No matter what it will be, the Left will try to ignore it and will try to say "nothing burger", that much is for sure.

    Talked to my dad today and he has tested negative twice from the rapid test and is feeling much better so it looks like he’s gotten over it. He hasn’t done a recent PCR test.

    I know when I had it I tested positive for a week after I was feeling better from a PCR test even though I had a negative rapid test

    I would… uh… wait 6-8 weeks until COVID finishes burning across the Chinese country side. 5000+ dead daily so far.

    No they are not but the problem is that the PcR tests was still showing positive even days after being unsymptomatic.

    I just took a rapid test today to go to Hong Kong. When I get there they require a PCR test. Worried that might be positive even though I’m non symptomatic and the rapid test came back negative

    Depends. In general -

    Rapid tests are extremely accurate when you get a positive result. They aren't as accurate when you get a negative result. PCR on the other hand are not as accurate when you get a positive result, but accurate when you get a negative test. More false negatives with rapid and more false positives with PCR. Rapid is a better tool for slowing spread than PCR.
