True . . .

I'm just curious.
Do you know where to go, do you have access, does your primary care physician do testing and if so is it the rapid or the send out?
Here in Bartlesville, we are one of only 2 providers I am told who do the rapid testing. 15 minute results, although there may be a queue of tests running that means it could be 30 minutes or so.
We're waiting on a test that is supposed to be both COVID and influenza with one swab. That will be nice, we have seen some flu and and starting to do more testing, but that means multiple swabs per patient. They don't like that, naturally.
Even our hospital here doesn't do rapid testing in the ER to my knowledge, which I think is a travesty. 10 months into this thing and we don't have widespread rapid testing. Pathetic.
And we think we're going to vaccinate 300 million people in 3-6 months or something? Hmmm...
Amazon employees have free testing on site. The turnaround is less than 48 hours.I'm just curious.

Just out of curiosity @tRidiot what is the difference in a flu test vs COVID test? Process wise? Is it the same swap, just deeper for COVID?
Is that true even with the rapid tests?
Well, up till now, we have had to do a separate swab for flu and for COVID. Today we got our first shipment in of the combined flu/COVID cartridges - 1 swab, 3 results in 15 minutes (COVID, influenza A, influenza B).
