any close calls on the 72 hour ?

5 days for an antigen test? That is next to useless.

If you were infected with Omicron you could be over your infection in 5 days....

According to the most recent data, Omicron has an average infection rate of 5.5 days.

Just wondering, does this mean an infected person can expect symptoms for an average duration of 5.5 days, or am I missing the point?

On average, yes. The Delta variant was more like 15 days, thus the old 14 day quarantine....
