Tests done early in symptomatic phase have come back negative on several patients, only to test positive days later.

The test could be weak.

It apparently only takes 1 to 10 virii particles to score a hit.

Any testing is likely to be only effective after multiplication in the blood or a significant reaction of anti-bodies. Either could easily take a week after the initial intrusion.

Now that’s a bridezilla. No wonder the CDC is scrambling over her.

Proverbial strippers with hearts of gold, trying to keep others safe. You know they didn't get that advice from the CDC!
