    Positive to Negative

    Does anyone how long of a time span before you test negative again. I tested positive for covid 6/13 and have been sitting at home bored except today I went out due to lack of symptoms. From Tuesday to Friday I felt like crap but have had worse colds. Sunday I home tested and was still positive but was over most of my symptoms. Feeling better on Monday I retested and I am still positive. This morning I got up feeling mostly my usual self but I was thinking of not testing until tomorrow so I'm not just wasting tests. But I was just wondering if anybody had an idea on when or if I'm ever going to be negative again. I tried looking for a answer on the net but trying to find the answer was taking to much searching and reading and I'm not good with that. Well there's my story and question. Thanks for reading.

    Son had it recently, positive 6/10, negative 6/19.

    Probably a lot of variables, so hang in there.

      Took me 13 days from positive to negative but took me 3 days to show positive from exposure.

        I'm pretty positive it takes about two weeks.

            For me I was negative using home test 3 days after end of symptoms, so 5 days after first symptoms. PCR test was positive almost 3 weeks later. I had to get a doctor's note to return to work, cause they wouldn't accept home tests.

                      The CDC director said back in December that one can test positive for up to 12 weeks, I'm assuming that's with the crappy PCR test. This was about the time she said 5 day quarantine was okay.
