Going on a cruise on Saturday, if I get a COVID booster today, could I test positive on the pre-departure test Sat morning?

Got mixed answers when I called the cruise support line.

Hey, don’t call a cruise line for vaccine information

You could absolutely test positive, but it would have nothing to do with receiving the booster today.

You might just already have COVID.

There is no live virus in the vaccine.

The booster acts like a mug shot that your immune system looks at, then it’s gone in a day or two, just like a Snapchat message

@creative1, yes my immune system got in trouble for doing that at work

As others have said, you will not test positive because of the vaccine. 100% no question about it, the vaccine will not make any COVID test result in a positive.

You can still get Covid while vaccinated. Many of us have.

⚠️Toxicity Alert ⚠️

My previous manager would track us by hours daily, made a fuss everytime anything stretched and guilt us for that and the unplanned leave too unless it was COVID. Hinted him a lot of time, this is problematic but apparently he considered it "standard practice for agile".

Now 8/10 teammates have switched within < 1 year of project start (6-7 months with him) which tbh had good work in our opinion and even team was fun to work with even though none of us ever met in person.

Did I just find a bad therapist or is it normal to project your own regrets to your patients?

3) Setup for the week is concerning with OPEX, lots of data releases, and almost no IVOL premium - lots of event risk and limited hedging in place
