    @kdalwayskint hope you're feeling Ok with covid.   I'm also currently isolating with it, thankfully its my day 10 tomorrow, although I'm still testing positive :disappointed:  I'm not surprised though as I haven't had an easy dose of covid.  I most definitly did not have "just a cold"

    Anyhoo, I'm checking in with my update of £200/£730

    Not sure of your age, @IrishRose12 but Prof Tim on the Zoe Covid study had a graph the other day showing how long people take to test negative, depending on their age. I'd suggest some vit d, c, and zinc to support your immune system. Take care x
