Cops Called as New Yorkers Swarm on Free COVID Tests

Cops in New York City were called to a Brooklyn corner after a mob swarmed a spot where the city was giving out free at-home COVID-19 tests.

According to the New York Post, on Friday, "tempers flared as the larger-than-expected crowd descended on Flatbush and Church avenues, one of five spots in the Big Apple where city health officials were doling out tests amid a surge in demand over the holidays and lack of supply."

"We've opened new city-run testing sites in all five boroughs and have been handing out at-home #COVID19 tests to those waiting in line," Mayor Bill de Blasio tweeted in the morning. "Our teams are working tirelessly to get you what you need."

That sucks. If you were in my area, you’d have been more than welcome to join my friends and me. We don’t care who’s vaxxed and who’s not.

I didn’t get to see my siblings this year because that would require air travel and I’m not doing that again until this insanity stops, if it ever does. But we Face-Timed and opened the fun little gifts we had mailed each other.

None of it makes sense.

Yes. What a sad state of affairs.

Thanks for the link on Post #4.
It is long (16 minutes), but I agree, very entertaining and well done.

A coworker's teenaged daughter tested positive.

A few days later he and his wife got sick.

Both tested negative, twice.

None were injected with the Luciferian Brew.

They had one, medium type "flu" night, but that was it.

False positive for the daughter or false negatives for them?

Who knows?

We live in southwest PA, flyover country.

The CCP Flu is not a thing here.

If it weren't for the panic porn on the news, you wouldn't know anything about it.

Our plant has about 200 workers, 29% vaxxed by guesstimate.

In the last year half a dozen have got it.

All "vaxxed".

Free tests are like crack for the covid cultists.

The should set up bleachers so purebloods could be on the outcomes.

My wife and I have never been interested in being tested. What’s the big deal in NY?

I’m pretty sure my husband and I had the Delta version of covid this month. For me it was very light maybe one day of fever but nothing near some of the flus and pneumonia I’ve had. We both refuse to get the JoeTox. Hubby got it worse than I did and it’s just getting over it now with a cough that remains. I’m 61 and he is 53.

Neither of us will get tested as we do not want to feed the monster here in New York state

You could offer a free kick in the nuts and the line would stretch for blocks.

maybe this is why i can’t get any type of ccp virus test anywhere even though i was told by the on call nurse to get one today. i thought brandon and co promised a glut of millions. so much for that promise.

You lucky dog. I was hoping to get uninvited to the yearly Christmas charade. At least when I do my “social distancing” (I did this before it was cool) nobody will accuse me of being a snob or standoffish. There’s a song that sings “It’s the hap-happiest time of the year” and I always add “when it’s over”.

I just had a vaxxed/unvaxxed Christmas with family and a few friends.

It was very nice. We even ate fondue from the same pots. And actually joked across vaxxed lines about the vax and the mandates. We sat vax unvaxxed one by one. No masks, except for my cousin Zorro, But he always wore a mask even before 2019.

Merry Christmas!
