Try to stay snug, keep low stress levels and stay away from annoying things.... And or people. I think you're great, watching your videos has helped me during this lockdown/global pandemic. Thank you for being an utter legend.
@Shannon Matthias I don't know if she cares, Shannon, but she posted this video on YouTube, and I'm one of her subscribers, so I thought I could go ahead & express my opinion, just like you thought you could go ahead & express yours. Also, I own 'Build a Problem' on CD - with the second ALOSIA CD - so I'm a fan - not someone who's just coming here to attack her. I don't think this video was a great choice: it's a too playful, all things considered, especially in my country (Spain) where it's her age group that's currently being hit the hardest.
Lol Dodie ^^; much like everyone here, sending good vibes and hopes that you feel better soon and that it doesnt get even worse. Rest and be good to yourself, kay? We love you! ❤❤❤🤩
It's gonna suck for what feels like ages, but you will power through!! I think the worst part for me was being SO FUCKING EXHAUSTED and then out of nowhere my insomnia hit so it was like I had zero energy but all I wanted to do was sleep! I would stay away from milk if you can, at least for me milk would make my cough worse since it makes me all phlegmy. Also if you've got a fever, chewing/sucking on ice cubes helped me feel a bit less like I was dying lmao
omg i feel u dodie :( the first day of self isolation i was like "ok this isn't that bad i CAN deal with the pain so I'll just be bored". but two days later and the pain became unbearable, there was no time for playing lol. but i promise it does go away, eventually! you may be left with some after effects so be sure to come back to your doctor to find ways to strengthen your immune system. you can do this cutie, wish you well always 🥺💕
@Ian Sowers I guess you could deem it as playful, but do you expect her to be miserable? That wouldn’t help anybody either. But again, you and I both are free to express our opinion. I'm just saying I doubt she'll take down a video because a single fan told her it was a bad idea.
I was down gard for a week when I got COVID, and then another 2 weeks of slowly coming back to normal. But it varies by each person, and I don't have a great immune system. 😕 I hope you start feeling better soon ❤
Please, please rest as much as you possibly can, and afterwards as well. I have a post viral induced energy & immune disorder that was brought about by a chest infection and the main factor was that I didn’t take time to truly rest. I will regret that for the rest of my life. Long covid is no joke, rest rest rest
omg get well soon dodie 💕 if you have a big temperature and you are struggling you can have a damp towel and use it like a blanket, and then you have a fan on. my mum was sick and had a big fever in the middle of the summer and this helped her out a lot :)
cell biologist here: PCR amplifies the virus' genetic information. It's like a little photocopier for viral genetic material, so even if there's only a small amount of virus, the PCR detects it. no waiting for the virus to multiply or increase in the amount of virus itself, just kind of... makes it easier to see something that is hard to see. sorry you are unwell!! hope you feel better soon!
@Pinky stop saying bullshit please. I recommend you to learn how PCR amplification works and how this technique has evolved over the years to the point that, indeed, it works for viruses too!
Btw, PCR has been used for maaany years (for example detecting ebola cases) and I have never heard this bs in those times. And you know what? I’ve also used this technique in a lab and... IT WORKS.
@Pinky the creator of PCR figured out an amazing tool, but he himself has done a TON of LSD. He lost his mind and even believes that HIV isn't real... he's a bit of a nutcase.
The thing is, that they keep multiplying until they get the results they want. The number of cycles where the test becomes insignificant is debated and all over the place.
@Pablo Sousa let @pinky say what they want to say, you don’t have to agree with it, but that doesn’t mean you need to put them down for their opinion :)
@heidi horrible take, im sorry. if they were saying an opinion that only mattered to themselves, like their favorite colour, then you'd be right, but in this case this """opinion""" is hurting a lot of people around the world and its just dangerous, so we have to be responsible for making it clear in comments sections like this that such an "opinion" is wrong.
A while ago I told a friend about Dodie and they didn’t understand me and questioned the name (as in “strange name”) and I said “*Dorothy Clark*“ which was very weird.
covid still exists and it’s so irritating to me whenever i go on snapchat (or social media in general) and see everyone out partying with no masks and no social distance. just because you’re vaccinated doesn’t mean you cant get it.
to everyone who’s reading this: please keep taking all the necessary precautions and stay home if you can! there are still a lot of countries that are suffering really really bad with covid, we need to follow all the precautions and work together in order to try to slow down the spread.
i appreciate how she owned up to mistakenly thinking vaccination meant full immunity. way too many people think that so having someone say "no that's really not how it works, look at me" outright is a change of pace
Except she wasn't fully vaccinated at all, especially if she's had AZ then protection is pretty low against Delta after only one dose. Of course people can still catch it when fully vaccinated but let's not overstate.
Just got my second dose 2 days ago, it's sad cause sometimes even if you want to get the vaccine, you have to wait for your turn (and also in my case I had to wait 56 days between both vaccines). :(
Especially important to let other people know as well, delta is the most dominant in the UK right now and the first vaccine dose is waaay less effective towards that variant
Technically not a vaccine. The jab is a money making scam for big pharma companies. Adverse reactions and deaths are mounting, but you won't be shown those figures by the mainstream media.
So did I, I was so excited to finally get vaccinated but we all learn the hard way 🥲 However, I believe that the vaccine has definitely made my symptoms less severe. I am very grateful to have an extra layer of protection even if I am not, in fact, immune 😂
@tee kay if you need more lessons on how to use google just let me know, or, you coukd just sit in front of your tv and trust the mainstream media and your govt 😄
@stelley08 Yeah, not reliable. You are falling for propaganda just as bad as mainstream propaganda. Don't believe everything you hear and see just because it is on the internet.
@Pinky Idk man, I took the vaccine a few months after ending up with long covid (healthcare student, gotta protect people) so my parents won't have to experience the absolute hell I've been going through for months. Worked out just fine! If you're that against it then sure, just don't end up like me or put anyone else through this please.
@alvareo92 sorry, but no! The risks are way lower. I get that it is concerning that the vaccine does not guarrantee 100% immunity, but afaik no vaccine does that. Saying that you can get it "just the same" is wrong, it is spreading false information and playing into the hands of anti-vaxxers.
This literally happened to me three weeks ago. I got my first vaccine 15-06, I tested positive on lateral flows 22-06. My PCR came back the next day as positive and I developed symptoms the evening before. I had the delta variant and it was horrendous. I was exhausted, the headache was splitting and debilitating, my eyes hurt to move. I lost all taste and smell, I had nausea and I fainted multiple times. I had to defer an exam at university because I was too sick to work. I’ve never been so ill in my life and it took the full ten days to feel ok again, and still my taste and smell aren’t 100% and I’m likely to have the chest cough for a few more weeks. Please please please keep testing and looking after yourselves no matter what the government is saying about opening up again. I’m a healthy 20 year old with no underlying conditions but COVID was truly debilitating and will affect me for a while to go. Stay safe everyone, and get well soon dodie, much love xo
Lateral flows are not shit guys , they are just less sensitive than PCR because in PCR even a tiny tiny amount of virus can be detected because the signal is amplified. it's just the same as pregnant test , if you tested negative but your period hasn't arrived you better take a blood test ;) get well soon dodie <3
this is why you MUST get a PCR test if you have covid symptoms.
if you do a lateral flow test whilst having covid symptoms, you are potentially risking SO MANY lives of those around you if the test gives a false negative.
as someone who works as a medical technologist in a covid testing lab, pcr tests basically take a mucosal sample (eg. from the back of your throat/nose)and then extract the viral rna from it and then put it through a Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) which multiplies the rna. from there, we can identify if there's any detection of COVID-19 genes in the huge amount of rna. for my lab, it takes typically about 6-8 hours to process but excludes the travel time it takes to get to the lab, the reporting, analysing etc. thus, it takes longer.
Me: "I wonder how to describe dodie's music that just makes it ethereal, but can't be put into words." The lemon drop evaporating into the glass: exists Me: "That's the one."
I think their idea was that you would still have some cases but they'd generally be mild and the healthcare system could handle it. Just means a lot of people hopefully self isolating...
It’s because now that the majority of people are vaccinated symptoms will be generally milder and hospital cases will drop massively which means that the NHS isn’t overwhelmed and is prepared for everything (theoretically). Thing is so many businesses are having to close because 90% of their staff are either isolating or have tested positive. One of them being myself, I got told to isolate for 8 days, went back to work for a week and then tested positive to had to isolate for another 11 days (my partner got it too). In that time 3 more members of staff tested positive and 2 more got told to isolate. But according to Bojo “the uk will just have to learn to live with Covid” honestly we’re basically talking genocide here
@Linny Crocus from what i understood on the video, she is vaccinated but only with the first dose, and such thought for some reason (probably misinformation sadly) that she was inmune to the virus already, but alas, she was not, and got covid. idk how the info is over there, but here in Chile we were told that with just the first dose of the vaccines that take 2 doses, if you get covid you could still get super sick before the waiting period after the second dose was over. Same for the single dose Cansino one (the one i got), they told me if i got sick before the 4 weeks it took to reach the inmunity, that i would get sick pretty much as if i never had gotten vaccinated... they might have been exaggerating, but better safe than sorry and i don't blame them at all.
The rationale is that in England by July 19th 2/3rds of adults will be double vaccinated and everybody who wants one will have had their first. So the link between positive cases and hospitalisations/deaths has been significantly weakened. On the latest data I read we are having 32x less deaths now then when we were last at this level of cases.
Of course this rationale breaks down when you consider that the people who aren't yet fully vaccinated for the most part are young people (who can't get their 2nd dose yet because their 1st dose rollout only started fully last month) who will be going out and working more in shops and hospitality.
i sort of know the answer to this! with the initial COVID virus and first variants, the vaccines were pretty dang effective even after 1 dose, so some governments, like the uk, decided to try to handle vaccination as getting everyone at least their first vaccine as fast as possible — which made sense initially. the issue is with some of the newer variants — while the full 2 shots still protect against them for now, just having had the first shot does not do as good of a job protecting you as it did with the original variants, thus putting a wrench in the uk’s plan! the podcast sawbones has an episode about covid variants that explains this better than i can from an actual doctor!
I am worried for everyone who gets the lurgy, but, quite selfishly, especially worried for you because your music means so much to me! I hope that you build your way through this problem (courtesy of the department of painfully shoehorned references) without lasting damage! But … bloody heck, Dodie, I did not know I could be so jealous! Your eggy-bottomed sugar trio is a DREAM! So glad you have good companions with you! All the best!
Laura Bowden2021-07-18 12:25:20 (edited 2021-07-18 12:28:21 )
I’m still waiting on my first one, it’s been four days despite me chasing up the results 🙃🙃🙃 I got a second one done yesterday so hopefully they’ll come through. I’m pretty sure that I have COVID, though, I can’t taste or smell anything 😂
Edit: the lines on lateral flows I did showed up as weak positives, but I did two more a couple of days later when I felt much worse and the positive lines were VERY noticeable 🤣
Ah Dodie! I’m currently dealing with covid too. I’ve had my first vaccine and tested positive by pcr and lateral flow almost 2 weeks later. Never felt so ill, wouldn’t wish this on anyone. Stay safe guys x
Please take care of your mental health dodie! I had to be Quarantined alone for 14 days because my mom was covid positive and it was the worst 2 weeks of my life. It felt like a fever dream and I really really struggled mentally. Take care and get better soon ❤️
Hi Dodie, I hope you're well! I'm nearing the end of my quarantine period (I was tested positive on 1 July but in my country the quarantine period is 14 days instead of 10 for people who experiences symptoms). Let's work together so we can get better soon~
By the time she realised she had it it's likely she was already around them anyway. It's not stated anywhere in the video but it's possible they already have it and that could explain it. I guess it's up to her housemates if they're comfortable having her in shared spaces.
I genuinely wish you a quick recovery. I had gotten covid-19 a several months back and it was quite a challenge. I found that drinking fluids and a healthy sleep schedule makes it somewhat easier to deal with.
Hi dodie, sorry to hear about your diagnosis and I hope you feel better soon. I'm a Medical Laboratory Scientist in the US and I have actually worked with both of these tests before. Here are the different principles behind each test. A lateral flow immunoassay is a test that can detect the antibody count in your system. (Aka can see if you have a little army fighting against covid). You are right in saying that this is an inaccurate test as of right now. But that's why we do the PCR testing to confirm if it's a true positive. This takes a little piece of rna that can fit onto the covid rna strand specifically. This can be used to make multiple copies of the strand to where we have enough in order for our machines to detect the rna. There's a lot of steps I'm brushing over but that's the general idea of each test. Get well soon!
sending love and support! I had it back in February and was convinced I was on my death bed lol, so I get it is definitely not a fun time!! Take care of yourself, and I hope you feel better soon <3
Please take care of yourself!! <3 We can suffer the loss of content for you to get well as quick as you can. We tend to underestimate how awful it can be, I'm still dealing with health issues 8 months later.
I tested positive 5 days ago I am currently halfway through my self isolation, so in a strange way, its nice to see someone I idolise struggling with it too I do hope you get better quickly dodie :)
Sending you hugs, Dodie! My whole family got it in April. My mum was hospitalized. But we're all doing okay now and have fully recovered. I wish for your recovery as well! <3
Had it in January and I + my sister are still feeling the effects of it 💔 I know how disappointing it is. I hope you have a quick and complete recovery.
Vengo del tercer mundo (Guatemala) y me impresiona mucho que les manden pruebas de covid para realizarlas en casa. Aquí en mi país casi ni pruebas hay y tampoco tenemos vacunas.
I'm so sorry you have COVID!! I really hope that you can stay as comfortable as possible given the circumstances. Sending all my love and prayers to you! <3
Take care of your voice. I lost my voice for 2 weeks after catching covid (on day 3). Everyone gets wildly different symptoms, but do hot water gargles/whatever the doctor tells you for your throat just in case. The 2 weeks without my singing voice in the middle of covid sucked really bad.
I'm so sorry you've tested positive! My own experience with COVID last fall was 1) a few days of sniffles - I thought allergies; 2) a 'head cold' - none of the trad symptoms, genuinely felt fine apart from stuffy and a headache; 3) ...uh oh :); 4) I feel like I'm dying. oh my god what if I actually die? ;;;;; that existentialism paired with already feeling poor was the roughest thing. I'm glad you've got people with you and an idea to keep your brain occupied, but absolutely give yourself grace if you keep feeling worse and not up for doing much at all. That is more the norm, I'm sorry to say, even in mild cases :( <3
take care and feel better soonest!!!! >< will be sending out good thoughts, hoping for your quickest recovery and minimal after effects 💛 love u dodie 🫂
I also tested positive for covid on the 8th. If you feel anything like I've been feeling I hope you're getting plenty of rest and fluids. Get well soon!
Aw dodie you poor thing :( all will be well and you will be well. I'm wishing you a speedy recovery! Covid is such a nasty thing but you will get through this! You are stronger than this covid bug may know :)
Wishes of good health and happy times to you, dodie! Thank you for everything you do. I'm still listening to build a problem every day on repeat. It's so good. 🔥🔥🔥🙌
A couple days after I bought a ticket to the Seattle show next March. Hope you’re able to get plenty of rest and recover from this as much as possible! Sending good vibes around the world to you!
I had covid in January (it really sucked) and I'm still dealing with the after effects now. Hope you have a full recovery, stay safe and have plenty people on call to help with shopping and the likes. It really goes to show that you can get it, even fully vaccinated hope it reduces the impact of it too. All the best. ❤️❤️❤️
I also got covid pretty late in the game, just take a bunch of Tylenol and sleep it off! Also don’t be surprised if ur reparatory symptoms show up super late that’s normal!
Oh also I tested positive for covid the day that I was supposed to get my first vaccine 🤦🏻♀️
You’ll feel like a champ once you’re well again. I was sick for less than a week, but my sense of smell and taste didn’t return fully until a month after I’d gotten my first symptoms. I hope you get well soon and I wish I could have those silly harmonies you sing around me at all times.
Oh no! My brother had covid and he just did ginger and turmeric shots ever day until he got his taste back. We tested his taste buds because we didn’t believe that he had it back. He did. It was hilarious. Also had some family friends who all got covid (their entire family), the ones who did the ginger and turmeric shots all got their taste back eventually. Hope this helps and I hope you feel better soon!
Been there, it sucks… I’m so sorry you’re one of the unlucky ones 😕 I really do hope you get well soon and with no serious side effects 🤞🏼 We love you Dodie, stay strong! 💪🏼
just wanted to say my brother's pcr tests came back negative for around 4 days of already having symptoms until he finally had a positive one, so unfortunately they don't always immediately work
): im sorry to hear that i literally am barely two months covid free n the after affects are ass🧍🏽♀️. thankfully my case wasn’t as bad but it sucked ass. i hope you rest and take care of yourself <33
@Dorotea thank you so much ): i’ve been stuck w a migraine on my left side after rona. it still have hard times breathing as well. thank you again so so much
Hope you feel better luv <3333 I had covid in December and felt real shitty for like a day but felt better the next day so hopefully you feel better quickly!!!!!! Also hopefully keep your taste because that was not fun 😅
On a real note I hope you’re okay. I didn’t have any of the usual symptoms until today and I tested positive yesterday. I woke up with a sore throat yesterday as well as a terrible cold so I took a test. Now today I woke up with a temperature and a cough 😭
I'm so sorry. Make sure to keep moving. I got Covid in December and I am still battling the effects it has taken out on my body. Hope you feel better soon!
Please take care of yourself and your voice! I had covid back in may & felt like I couldn’t sing anymore. Luckily it gets better everyday and with a bit of practice it‘ll be back to normal 😊
hearing this is honestly terrifying, hope you take care well on any symptom you have, I've seen people with situations like this and heard that it feels horrible, your health is really important and hope you get the treatments you need
Oh no Dodie, I hope you get the milder of the symptoms. I had it at the beginning of the year and it was a horrible experience, the only plus side was I had all my meals cooked for me hahahah get well soon hun x
Fucking hell, I'm so sorry for what you're going through. I mean it's kinda inevitable as you're living in England. Hope you'll get well soon. Love you dodie! ❤❤❤
As someone who loves you and Orla and Luke I am very excited to see your adventures in quarantine. I hope you feel better and that all in the household stay healthy <3
Going through covid for the first time myself this week, this was very comforting to watch. I look forward to watching your videos over the next days of isolation. Hopefully some beautiful songs too ;) I hope you’re feeling better and get well soon!
I’m self isolating at the moment. I was in contact with a friend and she tested positive the day after we met up. I took 5 test and they all came back negative but my mum said I should still isolate. Yesterday at midnight I put on a mask and just ran out into the road and screamed. Then calmly went inside again. Tomorrow is my last day of isolation.
Hope you get well quickly dodes! Since you already had one vaccine, I suspect it could be even worse without... Well, I guess this is one way of getting a second dose 😅 not the most pleasant one though...
Get well soon dodie! If you have a lung function machine (little contraption that you measure with by putting it on your finger) its good to check that as well while you have covid😊❤
i took the lateral flow tests i had at home too when i started feeling RUBBISH and it came back negative but then when i did the PCR test it (obviously) came back positive - i think you're right that the lateral flow ones are mainly for regular testing when you don't have any symptoms to make sure you're not asymptomatic and therefore make sure you're not spreading it around without knowing! my fever cleared up after about a week but still a bit of a chesty cough (roughly 2 weeks post positive result). after the fever cleared i felt nauseous for a few more days but then once i could eat properly again i was basically back to 100% health (apart from the cough, which the NHS told me could last a few weeks after recovering!). thankfully i kept my sense of taste and smell (my partner lost theirs though and we're still waiting for it to come back) - funnily enough i have a feeling i might have caught the virus the day before my first vaccine hahaha - hope you feel better soon!
I'm so sorry :(( I had it in may and turned 20 during my quarantine it was quite miserable at times but came out the other end okay and I'm sure you will too !
Wishing you and your flatmates a speedy, easy recovery

I feel like, living in her apartment must be like being in a church 24/7, men!! Such a beautiful voices! Dodie obviously... But the three of them together. God.
Myself and loads of other people I know have tested positive for covid this week, feel like the cases might rise again soon after all restrictions are taken away
sending endless love and hope!! you deserve only the best. take care of yourself, we will understand if you can’t keep posting. i’m stuck home with strep, so we’re sort of in this together. xoxo
I relate so much. I have COVID right now and have felt the same about the other line that I’d never seen before. My parents have both been fully jabbed and I think I heard “COVID, double jabbed, I mean it is ridiculous” about 50 times. About to get out and I’m quite excited
I had covid in April of last year and it wrecked me. Had to go to the hospital because I was so dehydrated and couldn’t keep any food down for over 2 weeks. Dysautonomia got a thousand times worse. I hope you have an easier time with it and recover quickly!
we've only ever had the nose test things in the part of the U.S. I'm in, the kind that get processed in a lab for 3-5 days before you hear anything. When I saw her putting a swab in her mouth I got SO confused.
I just seen on your Instagram story! So sorry but I’m glad that it isn’t effecting you too horribly but I’m sure it isn’t fun nonetheless. And yay!! Tour dates!!
Just entered my third bout of 10 isolation in the past month (the isolation rules make no sense) and I’m excited to binge all of you’re old videos and many other things to just about cling to sanity ^-^ sending love and support from a room not big enough to spend 1 month stuck in <3
Just to say - if you have symptoms, TAKE A PCR TEST AND STAY AT HOME. do not take a lateral flow test! Why? Because lateral flow tests are less accurate & give false negatives and positives. You are required to have a negative PCR test to stop self isolating!
** edit: I am referring to the initial precautionary isolation. lots of people get symptoms and then take a lateral flow test and think "oh I don't have covid then", what they should be doing is taking a PCR test instead!
if you have already taken a PCR test & are positive for covid, you can stop isolating after 10-20 days depending on the severity of your illness. <3
Actually Having a negative pcr test isn’t a requirement because they can continue to show up positive up to three months after a positive test. As long as you’re improving and don’t have a fever you are no longer contagious after 10 days or 20 days If you are severely ill.
@Violet Stricklin yes that's completely true, sorry! I was referring to the initial test - if you have symptoms, you must take a PCR test to confirm you're negative before you can stop your precautionary self isolation 💗
(lots of people get symptoms and then take a lateral flow test and think "oh I don't have covid then, what they should be doing is taking a PCR test instead!)
Oh okay !! I think a lateral test might just be a uk thing, I’ve never seen or heard of them in the us !! But that makes a lot of sense !! I learned the hard way that tests can keep showing up positive after no longer being contagious and I don’t want anyone to do the same and stress about it ! But the rapid tests aren’t very sensitive and can totally show false negatives !!
@Violet Stricklin yeah absolutely! the rules will be different in every country but what I commented is like the safest way to go about not-giving-anyone-else-covid 😅 and lateral flow tests are just the ones that you can do at home :D
Please take care. This is scary. I felt bad seeing you get up and move around. I heard from my folks who got it had the hardest time get up and do anything. Hope you recover and beat this stupid covid.
I had it last week, I’m fully fine now just can’t smell still. Lateral flows didn’t show up positive for any of my housemates even when they were in the midst of their symptoms, they’re shite. Hope you feel better soon
I had covid back in january and played the entirety of pokemon fire red again in my "free time", would recommend and also would recommend doing exercises to train your nose and tongue so you don't loose your senses cuz it's been 7 months and I still can't taste coffee properly and every type of meat tastes the same and also every chocolate tastes the same and every fried thing as well so yeah exercise your senses!!
did you get many symptoms after your first dose? just curious, I got really bad symptoms after my first but barely any after my 2nd, so I’m hoping I’m fairly protected (I got mine early because I’m autistic)
even if you don't feel great rn, i'm kinda glad that you have the thought to make this fun, or approach it from a different angle than 'oh well i have covid boohoo' (that's exaggerated btw)
if it makes you feel any better i'm sick too (not covid though as far as i'm aware)
Hi Dodie, I used to work in Forensic DNA and in the same labs where a COVID PCR method were being developed. PCR (polymerase Chain reaction) is copy and paste for DNA and RNA. PCR tests are much more accurate due to this as even the tiniest amount of RNA can be replicated - unfortunately it’s expensive (the materials needed) but PCR doesn’t take very long at all, the whole test from swab to result in a lab setting only takes a couple of hours but is delayed by transportation etc. Fun fact - the UK has the fastest DNA processing in the whole world.
this is weird, i've experienced almost the exact same thing starting a couple days ago, got a 'cold' (none of the covid symptoms that are well known) and being the anxious person i am took like 3 lateral flows which were all negative. spent a day in bed, still felt like utter shite and went to get a PCR with my mum. turns out i did have corona and have now managed to wipe out my fully vaccinated mum too
I had to stay home for work for 14 days without pay (thanks America!) and it was probably the second most sick I've ever been. I thought about going to the hospital but I did a telehealth appointment and they mailed me a pulse oximeter and said don't come in unless you get above a certain temp or below a certain oxygen sat. I got close but after a week I started to get better on my own.
Im kinda jealous of them being able to chill together in quarantine... my flatmate was negative so we had to separate in the flat aka i was only in my room and wore a ffp2 mask around the rest of the flat... that was definitely lonelier...
PCR as a concept is multiplying some kind of genetic material to make it more visible, so you’re pretty much on the right track, but the scientists don’t wait for it to happen, PCR is basically adding series of chemicals to the samples and subjecting it heating/ cooling processes to speed up the growth big time so it happens in the space of 30mins to a few hours, not a whole day, hope that helped 😊
PCR tests can be run within just a couple of hours, but they do take more time than a lateral flow test (which is a screener and therefore does not pick up on low viral load, like you said) but since labs have been having to process SO many tests, that's why it can take days. If you were in A&E for example they would probably be able to test you and get results back within a couple hours.

poor beb, we love you!!! make as much or as little as you’d like
I'm a biomed student but not an expert, but to put PCR as simply as I can: Trying to detect the virus is like trying to figure out if there's a needle in a genetic haystack. PCR takes the one shiny needle and turns it into a million shiny needles. Now it's much, much easier to figure out if there's a needle in the haystack.
I took a lateral flow test bc my brother had covid. came back negative. had to have a pcr test anyway bc I live with him and that was positive. did another lateral flow and the line was so so faint. my symptoms were so mild too so if it wasn't for my brother having it, I never would've known I had it and could've risked lives!
@D.M.S. i did have covid, i was in contact with 2 children who tested positive and i lost my sense of smell which i never have experienced before. I took 2 lateral flows and they said negative, so i took the one from NHS and got positive.
@the screen troll a question, they're asking if they took a PCR test. And they obviously didn't, lateral flows are known to not be 100% positive which is why if this person read the instructions they would see that it says "do not take this lateral flow test if you have covid symptoms" 😬
@chromeaces my manager wouldnt let me do the pcr one, she didnt want me off work so at work we have lateral flows, i just did one behind her back because she annoyed me by not letting me do one
Same for me. I got fever, headaches, sore throat out of no where. Then a few days later lost my sense of smell and taste. Even holding an orange up to my nose did nothing. I did those nose swabs because we luckily got the free ones from our local govt. Came back negative.
Eventually I got better, and took a different kind of test (Idk what it’s called but they use spit) and it still came back negative.
I would have gotten the better tests if we could afford it, but yeah these were shit. For anyone out there feeling ill but tests come back negative, do everyone else a favor and self-isolate still!! We’ll get through this 🤞
@gabby vrielle Both the PCR and the blood tests have a time range in which they can identify the infection. PCR usually identifies it in the time range from 3-5 days from infection, while the blood (antibodies) ones do it from 5-10 days (IgM) and > 15 days (IgG). Those drugstores one simply aren't sensitive enough unless you have a really high viral load.
I just broke up with my girlfriend last night, and just hearing your voice makes me feel better lol (now coming back to this when i just tested positive for covid)
this is the perfect opportunity to try the tiktok garlic sinus clearing trick, don't you think? (and knowing you, you'll probably create a harmony of sorts out of it)
Please no one do that "trick" its just irritating your nasal passages, nothing more than that. No better than scraping your knee on purpose so plasma comes out and than calling it "cleansing" 🤦♀️ If you really want to clear out your nasal passages you can get a sinus rinse from the drug store.
@Catherine Cummings I had no idea that it could be dangerous, thanks for enlightening me! I'm obviously not a doctor, I'm just an average mindless, ignorant tiktok scroller who doesn't look into the things I see! It's a good job I never tried it, but I definitely had decided that I would if I ever needed it, but now I definitely know not to. Thanks again!
Watching from Australia, it's crazy to see how casually covid is talked about. Am I the only one wondering how Dodie got it? Was she social distancing?
I am a bit concerned about how this video is not taking it very seriously. I guess in the UK getting Covid has become normal. And that's a terrifying reality. Because despite the fact it may be common to get it and not follow social distancing, it is dangerous and young people are certainly not invincible.
@Butterball2829 well no they’re right. Even after two doses the point of vaccines is to reduce the impact of symptoms and hopefully reduce the spread. It doesn’t mean you’ll be immune to it entirely but hopefully your immune system can cope better when it comes in contact with COVID.
OH MY GOD bby pls stay safe and stay strong. i know you are strong, so you will get through this. take rest and don't go outside. you don't have to post videos because it can make you tired, resistance getting slower and slower, and the covid will get to you babes.... PLS STAY SAFE.... WE ALL LOVE YOU.
For me the worst symptoms were the brain fog/confusion, lack of ✨oxygen✨, lack of ✨taste✨ itchy eyes & nose for days 😭
Oh wait that reminds me! Try eating cold things if you lose your taste! Ice cream & lollies were the only thing I could taste! Failing that, plain rice cakes were my best friend.
Get well soon, you will probably be noticing the after effects (usually lasting brain fog & breathlessness) for a couple of months but I hope you can recover okay x
as someone who works in a lft test centre, please please please get a pcr when you are showing symptoms as lfts are more for asymptomatic people to keep checking that you are safe before going out with friends, not to confirm if your symptoms are covid or not.
Sometimes not being a native English speaker is just so hard. I heard the line "my sugar got an eggy bum" and at first I thought I wasn't getting it right, but then the same line keep on going , so I started to think I was having a stroke🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️😂😂😂😂
Igy - 10 days total. 3 days down. Had both doses of the vaccine but hey ho - the risk was always there. Still get the vaccine folks. Keep distance. Stay safe. Sending all my love.
Yh its one of those things that its bad if u have a cold u shouldn't get vaccinated because u will feel worse because your immune system will be already weak
So many prayers and the very best of wishes that you make a quick (as possible) and full recovery! You have so many people from around the world that you inspire and make happy each each everyday that are right behind you and will be waiting and hoping everyday for you! Thank goodness your lovely friends are there to keep you company and smiling, you deserve it! We all love you and will patiently wait here for you to get to feeling better!! ❤❤
Biotech Engineer here: PCR can detect single molecules of DNA and RNA.
It's the same technology used at crime scenes. Essentially you copy molecules using the same system that's used when our cells grow and divide into new cells, but in a special heat cycling machine. This way you get a logarithmically increased number of molecules every cycle where 1 becomes 2 becomes 4, 8... and after 20 cycles you have over 1 million copies which you can then easily look at using a host of other techniques.
Hope ther will be no symptoms! I heard, the loss of taste can realöy suck, because things can even taste different after covid is gone. So, hopefully, you will just have 10 somewhat boring, but otherwise healthy days! Get well really soon!!!
Vaccines tend to reduce your immune system barriers for a while whilst your body processes which is why it's important to stay fairly isolated during and after all vaccines for a bit.
Omg I have it too right now- constant headache, omg the coughing, my throat wants to die and my entire body aches! And I’m 16 and pretty healthy , but I’ve had no vaccines.
Damn it! Denmark didn’t win over England in EM:( I’m danish so it sucks that my country didn’t get any further, but at least Dodie’s country does:) Cheering for you on Sunday, England deserves it🏴🇩🇰❤️
I haven't even watched yet but I'm early and I just wanted to say that I appreciate you so much! You're such a beautiful and wonderful elf! I also have a massive crush on you.. Sending you lots of love and good vibes!
hy!! I am so excited for the europe tour!!! ON TOP OF THAT you'll be in my country in Brussels on MY BIRTHDAY!! I really hope i am able to get some tickets to come see you.
lateral flow tests are for if you are asymptomatic. If you have any symptoms you have to take a PCR. Not really sure why but yeah thats what doctors are saying!
please take care of your voice don't do much even if you feel like you feel good <3 my dad had it and was the only one in our family who got it and his breathing levels dropped so bad he was in the hospital for a week he has to use a breathing machine at night every night sleep apnea. thats why he went but take extra care of yourself i heard peoples breathing being severely fucked up after having covid <3
I'm sorry if this is rude but do people in Britain still not have access to the vaccines? Edit: oohh I'm dumb I just saw on Twitter that she got the first dose but not the second
Weird thing; I hadn’t been sick in literally a year and a half. I got fully vaccinated (2 shots) and then… BOOM - sick. It’s amazing lol how strange for real
The first vaccine should most likely give you a significant head start. Whether you get it or not is less significant than the immune response. Also you are youngish/seggsy so you'll be fine :)
Only you Dodie could have covid and still look stunning and sing amazing love your wee choir lol. Rest up we all hope you feel better soon and are all here for you love you. c: ❤
Hey dodie there's this new challenge (that I definitely didn't just make up) called the please-do-a-cover-of-another-song-from-Inside-please challenge woah you should totally participate if you want (seriously now, I hope you feel well and comfy and have a very nice 10 days!)
Sorry to hear that, but when you talked about to tour it just made me think how horrible it would be if you got it right when you were meant to be going on tour. At least that’s less likely to happen I guess
What kind of vaccine did you get if you don't mind me asking? Was it a one dose? Was it Astrazeneca? This makes me question the point of vaccines if you still got it afterwards
pretty sure she only had 1 dose. And vaccines do work, but you can still get it. there is always a change. Just a lot less. Even for the delta versions your chance will be less.
She mentioned in the video that she'd had her first dose. Unfortunately not the second as in the UK her age group has only been offered the vaccine in the last few weeks
So sorry you got the virus, BEIN’ SICK SUCKS. But since you asked what to do……… maybe another inside cover?? I loved your verse of “that funny feeling”, you actually introduced me to bo and I’m kind of obsessed. I know it’s hard and annoying to sing with a cold tho, so don’t push yourself too hard to sing if you’re not feelin’ it. Get better soon!
I'm pretty sure the entire flat has to isolate, and anyone who doesn't have a confirmed positive test has to wait two weeks from the date of their flatmate's positive result before heading back out. Can't remember what happens if someone else then tests positive though, sorry.
(Source: one of my uni flatmates caught covid a few months back)
@doddlevloggle that's some dedication right there. i'm really happy you all get along so well then, because ten days aren't that much of a chore if you love the people you live with! i hope you get better soon <3
@Tris Sharp ooh thank you for this answer! i live in France and i'm alone so i was curious how it would differ from the situation here. i appreciate it!
@doddlevloggle omg didn't think that you'll see this! I'll take this opportunity to say thanks for your music, it has helped me a lot through some tough times!
dodie. bestie. i had covid and the last thing you should be doing is filming or editing or anything like that. just sleep because you will probably be in a lot of pain and post-covid recovery is not quick and it makes you v tired so just sleep and eat and stay hydrated because it might be hard to do anything else for a few weeks
Being pregnant is not something to joke about. I have been on a waiting list with my wife for more than 18 months to start a treatment to get pregnant. The waiting list is now two years. So no, it’s definitely not funny to joke about being pregnant.
Update - I feel much worse LOL the confidence in this video is shocking

My PCR came back the next day as positive and I developed symptoms the evening before. I had the delta variant and it was horrendous. I was exhausted, the headache was splitting and debilitating, my eyes hurt to move. I lost all taste and smell, I had nausea and I fainted multiple times. I had to defer an exam at university because I was too sick to work. I’ve never been so ill in my life and it took the full ten days to feel ok again, and still my taste and smell aren’t 100% and I’m likely to have the chest cough for a few more weeks. Please please please keep testing and looking after yourselves no matter what the government is saying about opening up again.

3 likesas someone who works as a medical technologist in a covid testing lab, pcr tests basically take a mucosal sample (eg. from the back of your throat/nose)and then extract the viral rna from it and then put it through a Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) which multiplies the rna. from there, we can identify if there's any detection of COVID-19 genes in the huge amount of rna. for my lab, it takes typically about 6-8 hours to process but excludes the travel time it takes to get to the lab, the reporting, analysing etc. thus, it takes longer.

15 likesIt's weird. America also decided after only half of the population was vaccinated that covid isn't that bad and dropped masks, distancing, ect🙄
24 likesIt’s because now that the majority of people are vaccinated symptoms will be generally milder and hospital cases will drop massively which means that the NHS isn’t overwhelmed and is prepared for everything (theoretically). Thing is so many businesses are having to close because 90% of their staff are either isolating or have tested positive. One of them being myself, I got told to isolate for 8 days, went back to work for a week and then tested positive to had to isolate for another 11 days (my partner got it too). In that time 3 more members of staff tested positive and 2 more got told to isolate.

0 likes@Linny Crocus from what i understood on the video, she is vaccinated but only with the first dose, and such thought for some reason (probably misinformation sadly) that she was inmune to the virus already, but alas, she was not, and got covid. idk how the info is over there, but here in Chile we were told that with just the first dose of the vaccines that take 2 doses, if you get covid you could still get super sick before the waiting period after the second dose was over. Same for the single dose Cansino one (the one i got), they told me if i got sick before the 4 weeks it took to reach the inmunity, that i would get sick pretty much as if i never had gotten vaccinated... they might have been exaggerating, but better safe than sorry and i don't blame them at all.
14 likesThe rationale is that in England by July 19th 2/3rds of adults will be double vaccinated and everybody who wants one will have had their first.
7 likesSo the link between positive cases and hospitalisations/deaths has been significantly weakened.
On the latest data I read we are having 32x less deaths now then when we were last at this level of cases.
Of course this rationale breaks down when you consider that the people who aren't yet fully vaccinated for the most part are young people (who can't get their 2nd dose yet because their 1st dose rollout only started fully last month) who will be going out and working more in shops and hospitality.
i sort of know the answer to this! with the initial COVID virus and first variants, the vaccines were pretty dang effective even after 1 dose, so some governments, like the uk, decided to try to handle vaccination as getting everyone at least their first vaccine as fast as possible — which made sense initially. the issue is with some of the newer variants — while the full 2 shots still protect against them for now, just having had the first shot does not do as good of a job protecting you as it did with the original variants, thus putting a wrench in the uk’s plan! the podcast sawbones has an episode about covid variants that explains this better than i can from an actual doctor!
11 likes@RainbowdashSailormoon i thought that masks and distancing are still required in the US for people who aren't fully vaccinated?

0 likesi'm suprised she's not isolating in her room if she has covid ? Her housemates have to isolate longer if they get covid from her
43 likesReplies (2)
By the time she realised she had it it's likely she was already around them anyway. It's not stated anywhere in the video but it's possible they already have it and that could explain it. I guess it's up to her housemates if they're comfortable having her in shared spaces.
30 likesif I recall correctly she likely got sick from roommates or at least they were first
3 likesI genuinely wish you a quick recovery. I had gotten covid-19 a several months back and it was quite a challenge. I found that drinking fluids and a healthy sleep schedule makes it somewhat easier to deal with.
7 likesHi dodie, sorry to hear about your diagnosis and I hope you feel better soon. I'm a Medical Laboratory Scientist in the US and I have actually worked with both of these tests before. Here are the different principles behind each test. A lateral flow immunoassay is a test that can detect the antibody count in your system. (Aka can see if you have a little army fighting against covid). You are right in saying that this is an inaccurate test as of right now. But that's why we do the PCR testing to confirm if it's a true positive. This takes a little piece of rna that can fit onto the covid rna strand specifically. This can be used to make multiple copies of the strand to where we have enough in order for our machines to detect the rna. There's a lot of steps I'm brushing over but that's the general idea of each test. Get well soon!

I'm so sorry you've tested positive! My own experience with COVID last fall was 1) a few days of sniffles - I thought allergies; 2) a 'head cold' - none of the trad symptoms, genuinely felt fine apart from stuffy and a headache; 3) ...uh oh :); 4) I feel like I'm dying. oh my god what if I actually die? ;;;;; that existentialism paired with already feeling poor was the roughest thing. I'm glad you've got people with you and an idea to keep your brain occupied, but absolutely give yourself grace if you keep feeling worse and not up for doing much at all. That is more the norm, I'm sorry to say, even in mild cases :( <3

0 likesJust to say - if you have symptoms, TAKE A PCR TEST AND STAY AT HOME. do not take a lateral flow test!
7 likesWhy? Because lateral flow tests are less accurate & give false negatives and positives. You are required to have a negative PCR test to stop self isolating!
** edit: I am referring to the initial precautionary isolation. lots of people get symptoms and then take a lateral flow test and think "oh I don't have covid then", what they should be doing is taking a PCR test instead!
if you have already taken a PCR test & are positive for covid, you can stop isolating after 10-20 days depending on the severity of your illness. <3
Replies (4)
Actually Having a negative pcr test isn’t a requirement because they can continue to show up positive up to three months after a positive test. As long as you’re improving and don’t have a fever you are no longer contagious after 10 days or 20 days If you are severely ill.
0 likes@Violet Stricklin yes that's completely true, sorry! I was referring to the initial test - if you have symptoms, you must take a PCR test to confirm you're negative before you can stop your precautionary self isolation 💗

Oh okay !! I think a lateral test might just be a uk thing, I’ve never seen or heard of them in the us !! But that makes a lot of sense !! I learned the hard way that tests can keep showing up positive after no longer being contagious and I don’t want anyone to do the same and stress about it ! But the rapid tests aren’t very sensitive and can totally show false negatives !!
1 like@Violet Stricklin yeah absolutely! the rules will be different in every country but what I commented is like the safest way to go about not-giving-anyone-else-covid 😅 and lateral flow tests are just the ones that you can do at home :D

0 likesHi Dodie, I used to work in Forensic DNA and in the same labs where a COVID PCR method were being developed. PCR (polymerase Chain reaction) is copy and paste for DNA and RNA. PCR tests are much more accurate due to this as even the tiniest amount of RNA can be replicated - unfortunately it’s expensive (the materials needed) but PCR doesn’t take very long at all, the whole test from swab to result in a lab setting only takes a couple of hours but is delayed by transportation etc.
0 likesFun fact - the UK has the fastest DNA processing in the whole world.
Hope you feel better soon!!!

0 likesPCR as a concept is multiplying some kind of genetic material to make it more visible, so you’re pretty much on the right track, but the scientists don’t wait for it to happen, PCR is basically adding series of chemicals to the samples and subjecting it heating/ cooling processes to speed up the growth big time so it happens in the space of 30mins to a few hours, not a whole day, hope that helped 😊

1 likePCR tests can be run within just a couple of hours, but they do take more time than a lateral flow test (which is a screener and therefore does not pick up on low viral load, like you said) but since labs have been having to process SO many tests, that's why it can take days. If you were in A&E for example they would probably be able to test you and get results back within a couple hours.

0 likes@the screen troll a question, they're asking if they took a PCR test. And they obviously didn't, lateral flows are known to not be 100% positive which is why if this person read the instructions they would see that it says "do not take this lateral flow test if you have covid symptoms" 😬

0 likes@gabby vrielle Both the PCR and the blood tests have a time range in which they can identify the infection. PCR usually identifies it in the time range from 3-5 days from infection, while the blood (antibodies) ones do it from 5-10 days (IgM) and > 15 days (IgG). Those drugstores one simply aren't sensitive enough unless you have a really high viral load.

0 likesIt's the same technology used at crime scenes. Essentially you copy molecules using the same system that's used when our cells grow and divide into new cells, but in a special heat cycling machine. This way you get a logarithmically increased number of molecules every cycle where 1 becomes 2 becomes 4, 8... and after 20 cycles you have over 1 million copies which you can then easily look at using a host of other techniques.

pretty sure she only had 1 dose. And vaccines do work, but you can still get it. there is always a change. Just a lot less. Even for the delta versions your chance will be less.

3 likesI'm pretty sure the entire flat has to isolate, and anyone who doesn't have a confirmed positive test has to wait two weeks from the date of their flatmate's positive result before heading back out. Can't remember what happens if someone else then tests positive though, sorry.
