My son (15) plays on a travel basketball team that has been practicing ever since they relaxed things here in TX. They are preparing for a tourney on the 4th of July weekend. A week ago Friday, he practiced against a kid who became symptomatic on Sunday. When they alerted the team Wednesday about this, my son and wife went and got tested Thursday morning. My son tested positive, my wife was negative. Apparently, he was guarding the sick kid and took a pretty good charge during practice.
We got the results Friday afternoon as we were packing to go to the beach with my brothers-in-law and their families. My daughters and I went to get the test Friday afternoon, because I have been going into work and both of my daughters had been around friends earlier in the week. We all tested negative. Because of my son's positive test, we are quarantining as a family for 2 weeks. My son's basketball tourney and a softball tourney my youngest daughter was going to play in are off, as is the beach trip.
Because he is the first positive test at his school, he has gotten a bit of notoriety. He has been doing workouts with the football team, and the kids in his "cohort" and the coaches he has been working with also have to self-quarantine. Because a couple of his club teammates don't play football, they have been working out with the HS basketball team. HS Basketball has suspended workouts altogether for the next couple of weeks.
My son is asymptomatic. His friends have reached out to him to ask him how it feels. He almost feels like a "fake" because he doesn't really feel bad. He said he almost wished he felt worse because of all the trouble he caused. The only thing that seems off about him is his appetite.
A couple of notes: the tests we took are the "rapid response" tests, and I have seen some stories about false negatives, but haven't seen much about false positives. They swabbed our noses, but didn't go as deep as the pictures of the swab tests I had seen online.
More googling led me to this stat:

Hopefully my son stays within that 80% asymptomatic number and we can put this behind us.
