Good - this will help avoid people wasting their time getting stupid tests.

I have a friend whose son works with a man who was experiencing COVID-like symptoms. The man was tested twice, as was my friend’s son, and both tested negative both times. Because the co-worker was still experiencing symptoms, he was tested a third time and the test was positive. My friend’s son was also tested a third time. The results took approximately 10-12 days to arrive. In the meantime, the whole family (their 3 sons and their families), was getting ready to go on a pre-paid vacation together. When they finally got the test results back, it was positive, but the doctor told my friend’s son, that since he had already passed the contagious stage, that he would be able to join his family on vacation. I’ve never trusted the test kits from the beginning, because their results have just been too unreliable, and since that unreliability is still an issue, what’s the sense of even giving the test?

Our pesky Nextdoor site sends out constant reminders....to go get tested.

They’re going overboard, in our smallish community.
