You don't need to move net curtains aside. Stop getting net curtains wrong.

I do if I want to demonstrate curtain twitching. Plus, no sun = opaqueness of 0.78, compared to 0.23 with sun.

South Korea reporting 91 people reinfected after being COVID free

But more likely to be testing issues:

Quote"While we are putting more weight on reactivation as the possible cause, we are conducting a comprehensive study on this," Jeong said. "There have been many cases when a patient during treatment will test negative one day and positive another."

QuoteThose studies are not checking for live virus, they are checking for genome. They do something called a PCR test (polymerase chain reaction), which is the test we are using to diagnose patients. It doesn't tell you that you have live virus in your nose, it tells you have had it. For about 72 hours of a viral infection you have a live virus. In children it can last for longer – four or five days have been observed in flu.
