I asked if they did COVID testing and she said yes. I asked if they could test for the delta variant. She said no. I asked if she knew of any other locations that could test for the delta variant. She said no. I hung up. What an absolute joke this is. If you can’t see the writing on the wall then you’re blind.

they send your sample off to a lab for further testing

They don't distinguish the delta variant because that requires genome sequencing at a more advanced lab. Your ignorance is showing.

Do you think local walk in clinics are doing genome sequencing in the back?

One thing is abundantly clear over the last 18 months, the lack of an educated population is clearly a detriment in situations like these

Stop it. They let you know if you have covid, you have to opt to release your sample to the state for deeper testing than just a swab.

are you sure the symptoms you are experiencing aren’t hangover symptoms? because that thought process didn’t derive from a sober person.

That's why the OP shouldn't call the Free Clinic.

I used to think this board’s average intelligence was actually pretty high

The last 6 months have proven me very wrong

As pro vaccine as I am, I wouldn't say we should be worrying about the delta variant save for it giving govt a reason to go back to shutdowns.
