My doctor told me after 10 days of isolation I am good to go as long as no sign of symptoms namely fever. I had plans for this weekend, but am conflicted on whether I should go as it does seem like everyone has a different answer.
I ask this cause I haven't taken another test to see if I am now negative and mostly because allot of people saying it is too soon to get a negative and highly likely I would have a detection, but not be contagious. So without taking a test to see I am negative, but following my doctors recommendation what is others take?
Don't do anything till I take a follow up test? Or following distancing guidelines and wear a mask?
I would quarantine myself until I get a negative testQuote:

Take your time going back to work unless you are a health care worker then, follow your employers mandates.Quote:

Some people will avoid you as though you had the plague, even after you are completely done with the disease (personal experience). Wear your mask and avoid crowds when possible.
you know what is amazing? there are people that think ghosts are real but think covid is fake lol... really think about that
My company policy is 14 days and no symptoms and my doctor was 10 days and no symptoms. Called my doctor and he pretty much said, don't bother with another test unless you feel like you're getting sick again.Quote:

Also by the same token, you can have a social media account banned quicker by touting the effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine than by posting child pornography.Quote:

Even if one really was banned before the other, that alone is not evidence that the other thing is somehow approved of or a definite lower priority. If you have evidence to the contrary, you might want to share it.Quote:

No, but there are plenty of people who seem to want to pick and choose which "medical experts" they believe. There have been enough doctors who have touted the effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine to consider it a viable treatment for the virus, at least for the time being. The fact that information about the drug is being intentionally suppressed should be enough to open people's eyes. Or that just this week, Ohio attempted to ban the sale of it.Quote:

It seems that for some believing in the "medical community" means believing in what is said as long as it's in accordance with their political alignment. That, of course, has nothing to do with the fact that Facebook, Twitter, or any other MSM or social media entities have no business moderating what medical information is put out. Hell, there are more dangerous medications that treat acne or anxiety that are prescribed.
Those social media sites are private organizations that can moderate whatever and whoever they feel like moderating, just like the moderators on PSD can pick and choose what and who they want to moderate. You and I may not like it, but it is what it is. We have the choice to not support or participate in either of these things if the way they run their business doesn't align with our personal values (or idea of an enjoyable and/or productive time).
I guess I can assume that you were referring to Dr. Immanuel by the way you completely avoided my question in regards to her and her reckless advice?
