Just had a 6 inch Q-tip stuck up my nose!
Have been in close contact with 2 people that live with someone recently confirmed with covid so got tested today. Was actually quite easy. The County here is doing free testing and it seems nobody knows about it because getting an appointment was ridiculously easy, whereas I hear getting testing from clinics is a bit more difficult.
You fill out a form online, based on your answers they allow or deny your test, then they allow you to pick a site and schedule.
Upon arriving, you drive through this crazy maze like course to get to the first station, where they check your ID and make sure you are allowed. Then you go through another maze to station 2, where they give you the testing kit. Then you go through another maze to station 3, where they do the actual test. Then off you go.
The maze, 3 stations, 6 workers at each station and sheriffs directing traffic seemed a bit over-the-top to me but hey if that's what works? LOL.
I'm supposed to get an email when the results are in then I log on to the website. According to others it seems to be taking about a week to get results.
Anyone else get tested? Positive or negative?
