Ugh. So sorry your daughter is sick with covid. I agree with Kml, better to quarantine and postpone the date. I’ve been reading that the tests are only so accurate and the day you test within the exposure window can also lead to false negatives.

For me, if I am not aware of exposure and I’m seeing someone at higher risk (or with someone close to them at higher risk) I test day of. But once exposed, I at least wait for a five+ day period before seeing anyone. Regardless of my test result. But that’s just me.

With this sneaky new variant its trickier. I’m so over covid though. I think we all are!

Fingers crossed your daughter feels better soon and you or your son do not get sick… 😊
