My wife gran tested positive for CV19 after a hospital visit mid last year, she's 93 and showed no symptoms at all. After quarantine she continued to test positive via PCR for over 1 month, which mean her carers could not visit her at home, family had to do the job. Basically she was completely asymptomatic, was well passed the infectious period but because PCR amplifies so much, she was testing positive for weeks after the original test. PCR is the wrong method of CV testing going forward.
