For unvaccinated in college, if they have proof of positive test, they don’t have to test or any restrictions for next 6 months (at some schools) Just saying “I had Covid” doesn’t allow the same

People love their govt overlords.

Hopefully this means extended unemployment benefits are exhausted and all these people going back to work.

I agree with this thread, but a lot of people need that positive test to miss work if you are too sick to work. For me it’s, “DO NOT come to work if you are sick, but I need doctors note for HR if you are sick.”
With that said, it all sucks.

I had to get a negative test to go back to work this morning. Nowhere on the northshore had at home tests in stock. Got to an urgent care at 6:15am that opened at 6:30am and 15 people were already in line. Didn’t get my “rapid” results until 9:15

I waited in line for 18 hours. Told the PA that I had a mild cough, sore throat and runny nose. He told me to take advil, over the counter cough medicine and have some warm soup.
Thank God I waited. Would've hated to see the consequences if I handled that on my own. Could've been catastrophic.

Thank you, media, for driving panic and absurdity in the general populace
“Flatten the curve” was the first message, now the media and current testing/quarantine/osha mandates are driving even more people out into public, using supplies and causing shortages and straining pharmacies and doctors offing

4. If symptoms worsen, go to a hospital
I'd avoid doing this... everyone that died from this "deadly pandemic" did so in the hospital. Tells me that they misdiagnosed it.
We'd be without homeless people right now if this thing were as bad as they say it is.

I think the lines are people trying to get out of going to work

All to get a Covid test that could have been achieved with a rapid test at Walgreens and for a diagnosis that will include: 1. Go home 2. Get in bed 3. Take Tylenol/Nyquil 4. If symptoms worsen, go to a hospital No wonder there's a strain on Urgent Cares/ERs. People just go to them in a panic.
Covid paralysis driven by the media.
Some lady on my neighborhood board posted asking what urgent cares were open because he 7 year old tested positive. His symptoms. A slight fever and sore throat. That’s it. That’s why they wanted urgent care.
Just let your kid rest in bed and monitor to see if their basic cold gets worse.

this is pathetic. sheep.
the media won’t stop driving the fear porn until we’re back to lockdowns, mandates, and virtual learning.

Mass hysteria that has been perpetuated by the media. No one denies the seriousness of Covid, but the primary issue is that panic has caused strain on resources that could have been avoided had the narrative been to only get tested if serious symptoms presented.
Every Joe and Jane in society was so freaked out that they had to get tested. It's made the world insane.

We are up to performing 500 tests daily and that is using just one of our 3 platforms. They are killing us with that workload. Just stay home!!!

The home tests are low because Brandon decided to buy 500 million that he will ship to every home next month once this wave is over. 99% of those people won’t need the test at that time so they will stick it in a drawer.

I, for one, am staying at home, awaiting the winter of illness, death and despair.

Was out getting lunch and noticed up here in Shreveport that there were 20 people standing outside the Urgent Care off of E 70th I would assume were waiting in line to be tested.

FYI if you have Omicron it responds well to things like Mucinex as well.

Sounds like the drive-thru at some of the drug stores here in N.O.
I've used the drive-thru to get prescriptions in the past but no so much now. Each car that takes the test is in line a good 15 minutes or more to complete the process.
The last time I got in the drive-thru at the local CVS was 2 weeks ago since they only had 1 van at the window. While waiting, a guy got out of the van and came to my truck to inform me there were 6 of them who were getting ready to take the COVID test so they could catch a flight out of the country.
I backed out, went inside, went straight to the counter and got my RX's.
