Thank you, I've recently read that despite Omicron variant being currently dominant, the analogy of cases between Delta and Omicron are approximately 60/40. Unfortunately, can't find the source of the article, its information could even be invalid as we speak. What's frustrating though is that I'm suddenly developing a fever, starting from early - late afternoon, every single day.
So this means the docs couldn't reliably determine which variant you have? That's seriously fucked up.
That's a long story, you'll need a PCR to identify the variant, I only took a Rapid Antigen Test, PCRs are costly, while even if you take one at a public hospital, which is a hassle process with long waiting hours to get tested, it's almost impossible to find someone who will answer that question. I can only speak regarding my area's hospital. Samples are sent to another hospital in a nearby city, taking hours to receive the results, while it's unknown who to contact in order to learn something so simple.
On top of that, the government's website is crap, the test result, along with its variant if positive, should be available online, using your social security number. Instead of that, you can only access negative PCR/Rapid test and generate a certificate, while in case of a positive result, it only prompts you to issue your certificate of recovery.
Im pretty sure i had a delta variant in the begining of last year. Symptoms were running nose, sore throat, and mostly brain fog. It lasted for 2 weeks or so and the brain fog was super bad, zero memory, unable to focus etc. Didnt have super high fever. Started to get scared because it didnt go away, and heard of long terme covid, started to throw all i could find as supplement, vitamin, herbals etc then eventually it went away.
I would not worry too much either but dont underestimate it either, take your vitamins, isolate, stay warm etc for it not to take root and not turning into a long covid which i read can still lead to some permanent damage.
Hope you recover soon take care.
Thank you, not sure which variant I got, Omicron sounds less intimidating than Delta, especially for those who are vaccinated. It's frustrating though, that I still get fever every day.
