As Above So Below
After a few phone calls today I found out how testing is being performed in the area...Apparently if I want to be tested promptly I have to drive 30 minutes to a bigger city in a different county for a walk-in test...The county I live in has only one facility they use for testing however I must first see a doctor and also be showing symptoms, which is ridiculous, some people don't show symptoms but are contagious...They sort of make it sound like they have limited tests they can perform, the nurse I spoke to stated a couple times about wasting testing resources when I was questioning her and after she stated that a second time I asked her how can any test be a waste...The whole idea of testing is to find out who has it and who doesn't, meaning we are not only seeking positive results but also negative results through testing, with the hope of more negative results than positive ones...I then called the next biggest city and spoke to three more people in the medical field over the phone and they do have a drive thru testing place but first I must call a 800 number and give them all my personal information needed to get in their system, then they give me a one hour window of time to show up at the testing drive thru and they perform the test from my car...I haven't done so yet, I'm really not in the mood today to drive 30 minutes to a city that is 10 times more infected with covid-19 to find out if I have it or not...Maybe I'll set it up for tomorrow, like I mentioned last night I don't have any symptoms and honestly don't think I have it or have had it, but I would like to confirm that for peace of mind...
