A Sydney mother who was rushed to hospital shivering with 'severe chest pains' returned five negative Covid tests - before finally recording a positive reading.
Rebecca Strum also saw her family infected with the Delta variant of Covid-19, including her partner Simon, who at one stage was also hospitalised as he 'couldn't see'.
Speaking to Today, Mr Strum recalled the frightening experience alongside his 14-year-old son Jason, who was contacted by NSW Health and informed he was a close contact of a known case and needed to get tested immediately.
'He was (Covid) positive by the Monday. Jason didn't seem so sick. But then by Tuesday, I started getting sick,' he said.
'Within a few days, I ended up in hospital. It built up and got worse. I was up all night shivering, sweating, coughing.
