I’m I out of it or what. If you get tested, and you don’t have it. Then inadvertently you come in contact with somebody who does, what’s the big deal on getting tested? Ami missing something.

Somehow if there was universal testing the whole thing would be over. Everyone testing positive would get a scarlet "C" tattoo on their forehead. Those that pass get work and travel papers (papers please).
Actually what wide scale testing does is give the egg head statisticians more data to play with.

Which explains a lot.

I just got tested, so sometime next week I'll know.
I'm here to increase my social credit score and rub elbows with some of the highest rollers on the internet.

The first i will get tested with the swab as well as having blood drawn.
The new rule at the hospital says you need one at least 3-4 days before any surgery.
Can't wait for that large q-tip in the nose.

I feel like the place folks go to get tested would be a fine spot to contract it.

I got the antibody test the other day. Had a physical and the doc mentioned it. Got it along with the other blood work. I'd been to CES (suspected spreading event) as well as dry cough crud in Feb. Expect to be hearing today. Only about 80% reliable I guess.
Probably less than 10% chance I had it, but it would be like winning the covid lottery if I did.

I got the swab back in February when they was looking for the flu, I had rather have the needle. For inquiring minds: You have to be pre screened to take the test and you are given an appointment to be in the parking lot. The testing is outside in an enclosed trailer like a landscaper would haul lawnmowers in. It was blowing almost 40 mph here this week so I guess a tent would never work. Back to the test, you sit in your car with the windows up and call a number when you arrive. Then they come out and double check your info and payment method. You wait for the all clear, then go in the trailer and sit down to be stuck. Three forms to sign with a pen laying on the table. The smartass in me almost ask if they disinfected the pen between patients but I managed to keep quiet. The blood is sent overnight to Mayo Clinic Laboratories and the results are snail mailed back is 3 to 5 days.

Insurance should cover the cost of a antibody test if it was written for diagnostic purposes.

.... Three forms to sign with a pen laying on the table. The smartass in me almost ask if they disinfected the pen between patients but I managed to keep quiet. .... That pen would be an excellent way of spreading it - considering how much effort they are putting into everything else, that's would be a major FU. A few weeks back we had to present ourselves at the polling booths for a local election - they spread the voting over a week so the booths were almost empty when I did my vote. We had to bring our own pencil.
Whatever you said...everyone knows you are a lying jerk. That's a bold assertion. Point out where you think I lied. Well?
