All to get a Covid test that could have been achieved with a rapid test at Walgreens
They’re all on back order here in Louisville. Haven’t been able to find an at-home since before Christmas.
Our school district is testing for free at all high schools during the break and that was the only way I was able to get one before a family get together.

All of them probably had mask on in the car.

How would their employer know?

1. Go home

3. Take Tylenol/Nyquil
4. If symptoms worsen, go to a hospital
I used to have the same attitude but I’ve recently learned hospitals will turn you away and make you get a Covid test for the slightest symptom even if you are trying to be seen for something unrelated.

Are the people sitting inside of their cars with mask?

Because someone in the office called in with Covid

Ok explain to me if the virus is no big deal, why are so many people getting tested?

We don’t have to burn our regular PTO if we test positive for COVID. There’s a separate allotment of days set aside.
Our school district also has a different set of absence days to denote a quarantine but you need a positive test supervised by a healthcare professional to prove that.
If I have COVID and have to quarantine then I’m getting tested so I don’t have to burn my regular vacation/sick time.

I’m perplexed by all of this. I had a bad LRI after Thanksgiving and called my doc to see if they could get me something to sleep at night. They told me they wouldn’t see me without a negative covid test and I had to go to Urgent Care.
My mom visited the same doc this week for an annual physical and he said his practice alone saw over 100 positive covid tests by 2pm that day.
All I wanted was some codeine. Just some codeine. And they wouldn’t give it to me. Just some codeine.

You mean if you are actually sick then you are getting tested to see if you have Covid. That's a normal thing to do.
if you aren't sick, then why would you ever get tested?
if you aren't sick, then why would you ever quarantine? If you want to quarantine when you aren't sick, then you might as well stay your stupid arse at home at all times and just quit going out into public for the rest of your life.

Never knew a cold and sniffles are urgent

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

The only times I have has been before family gatherings with people who are immunocompromised (I’ve had multiple family members with cancer in the last two years).

I find it hilarious how confused the PT and OT get in why people would want to test
It’s the holidays. You have a slight cold. Normally, yeh you would roll to the party and just say “hey guys I have a slight cold” and kinda somewhat stay away. That’s how it was done forever
But now, that slight cold can be pretty damn problematic to 80 year old relatives
Is this really so hard to figure out? Add that to the list of people needing negative tests for other reasons it isn’t some difficult thing
