Sister in law who’s 35 and double jabbed currently has it. She’s really bad and looking like she may need to be admitted to hospital as she is really struggling to breathe and has bad pain in her chest

Best friend had it during the second wave and was admitted to hospital but was discharged a few days later

All other people I know who had it have had mild cold symptoms

Triple jabbed and LFtested positive on the 29th of December so self isolated.
Was clear on day 6 and 7 which took me to last Thursday but decided on not returning and further sekf-isolation until yesterday Jan 10th. I self tested last Fri, Sat and Sun just to make sure I was totally clear for going in yesterday knowing I'd get tested on return, all negative.
Went in yesterday morning, tested and he said I was positive so PCRed and sent home.
Tested myself when I got home and negative.
Just received yesterday's PCR result and its saying positive.
I've LFT tested at home for the last 7 days and all negative.
Oh, well. Looks like another week off on pay.

Ok, thanks for the responses. It is weird isnt it!

What is a load of bollox is that if I'd PCR tested after my LFT on the 29th and self-isolated for 10 days (I have anyway) I'd have been good to go back without being tested for 90 days.
But because I've only just been PCR tested positive I'll have to take another week off.
There was no PCR testing or online PCR kits in my area all over Xmas.
It's a sham.

One interesting point to note. I had the Pfizer booster, just before Christmas, after having 2 main doses of AstraZeneca. I haven't had a hangover since! I had a really heavy session the day after Boxing Day and woke up the next morning feeling like I hadn't even had a drink.

Bloody hell. If the unintended consequence of Pfizer is hangover free sessions on the pop they need to add it onto the list of possible symptoms. "Excessive alcohol use after Pfizer may be consequence free. Have a Brandy".
