JetPixiAll signs point to COVID but I’m testing negative atm. My NP definitely tested positive. Probably happened at #FFXIVfanfest :(
Jim@Jetpixi Again?!
Jorsh@Jetpixi ooof, that shit sucks, sending good vibes your way, friendo 
Texan_Reverend@Jetpixi It sucks that you're sick, & I hope you get better soon.
If your testing protocol doesn't already include it, coughing on the swab has been shown to increase accuracy.
The most effective current method is throat/mouth swab, then nasal swab, then cough 3 times with the swab as far back inside your mouth as possible without it touching anything.
The cough is the real game changer addition, as it tends to yield results more often than when just a nasal or a throat + nasal protocol is used.

@Texan_Reverend I was not aware of this. Will give it a try. Thank you.
@Texan_Reverend idk if this is why it worked but it did :(
@Jetpixi While I'm glad that it was effective, so you can get Paxlovid or other treatment sooner, I'm sorry to hear that it wound up being positive.
I wish you the best with your recovery.
