A family member has been extremely fatigued, had a small bout of fever, a little cough, but two tests came out negative. Is it possible it's COVID without a positive test?

It might be something else, full Blood work can help.

A false negative is pretty common with a rapid. Less with a PCR but still possible. Obviously can be something else.

Not everything is covid Smile If 2 negative tests and no known exposure I would assume something else

Yes a family member had 2 negative tests with symptoms and then a few days later got a call that the second test was actually positive.

A family member of mine too, despite this, I will say to get bloodwork and have it checked out thoroughly by a Dr to make sure it's not something else. My kids strept was found because I took dc in to check out a very minor cough. The Dr told me it's not unheard of. He had some theory of why it can be related.

If both rapid and regular test are negative and no loss of smell and taste I’d assume something else.
