[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 3385929, member: 9374"] Test, test, test. "Everyone can get tested, symptoms or not." Maybe so, but not at your doctor's office. We still can't get the testing kits we want. We covered this topic today in our weekly business meeting. As of noon today, we had 8 testing kits in our office, with a number of people scheduled to come in for testing today. Two lab offices in our town. RML is at the hospital. They flat refuse to give us any testing kits. None. Zero. Labcorp keeps people in our office. We have 8 kits and currently are told we can order FIVE NEW KITS PER WEEK. I know multiple people are told they can go to the health dept and have a rapid 15-minute test done. One of my patients yesterday had an appt for today at the health dept. He was in our office and because our Labcorp tests take 2-3 days, he opted to go to the health dept. We called today and he told us he tested positive. But they didn't do the 'rapid' test on him, so I don't know how he knew that. Supposedly. Word of mouth, you know. We are seeing more positives. Yes, in younger folks. This guy is like... I dunno, 24 or something. I've had a couple other positives recently, including one Hispanic guy prolly 50 or so, now his wife and kids all exhibiting symptoms, someone who works at a local casino came in today for testing with a fever, also has similarly sick kids... The numbers gonna go up. And the state says anyone can get tested - if you go to their state-controlled site. Not your doctor. Makes us look like fools and incompetents, and gets everyone depending on the state for everything. Figures, eh? [/QUOTE]
