Just learned I have it and I'm looking for answers.

WE TESTED NEGATIVE! YAY!!!

Miz t. was exposed to a friend who tested positive the next day.
We quarantined from each other.
We wore masks in the house around each other.
She moved into the guest room.
I offered, but she insisted.

After a week of no symptoms we got tested (twice) at a walk-in doc-in-the-box (Immediate Care) nearby. No cost to us with with Medicare.
First test had 20 minute result.
96% accurate.
Negative.

Test 2 took 2 days for results.
99% accurate, according to them.
Negative.

WOOHOO!
No masks at home and Miz t. moves back into the Master Suite.

You know you're old when...

You have more 'specialists' than friends.
