IMHumbleO rapid tests almost do more harm than good now.
Typically they don’t show a positive until after about 4 days of infection, during which time someone can easily be contagious (we’ve known this for a long time — e.g. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/health/how-long-could-i-be-contagious-before-a-positive-virus-test)
Unless you get a PCR test (Lucira etc.) the best strategy is probably, “If you think you might have it, you probably have”. And continue to do what everyone ought to be doing anyway: #WearAMask
