COVID RAT is negative, but I was up with a fever ALL night.
So I guess I will be getting a PCR at my own cost tomorrow.

@grrrr_shark I'm probably stating the obvious, but repeating a rapid test is probably worthwhile (even if only to save you the effort and hassle of getting yourself to a sample collection point if it turns out positive).
@robryk but yeah, well aware a negative Rat result doesn't rule anything out
@grrrr_shark I'm kinda surprised that positive antigen test is not sufficient (false positive rate there is IIUC small, and more importantly false positives are not correlated with fever), but I assume this is some weird bureaucratic sillyness.
@robryk yeah, that's my guess
@robryk I'm high risk, so the PCR test is kind of necessary anyway in case I need antivirals.
