hey all,
this friday will be my 30-day mark! i know, it's not a lot, but it feels like it especially since i still clearly remmeber what it felt like on the 2-day mark. ;) anyway, i was wondering, does anyone know any real statistic of what percentage of people produce antibodies after 1 month? i know the CDC says "the majority of people" but is there any real percentage? because majority could mean 51% or more, you know? so yeah it would be great if someone knew that.
also, i would prefer to take the PCR test since it's supposedly accurate after 28 days. but i'm having some trouble finding where to get it done. by the way i have health insurance and money is no problem. i asked my doctor and he didn't even seem to know what i was talking about! :eek: so i don't think my regular doctor's office seems to do it...where does one normally get a PCR done?? could i do it at the ER? i really would feel much more at ease with a PCR test. i called the CDC hotline for info on that and i keep getting all the irritated, frazzled hotline employees and htey're not much help, haha. so yeah, for anyone that's had a PCR here, where did u get it done?
thank you so much,
