Ouch!

No, I'm good.

Is this real? Eff that.

That's the same way I got tested for the flu. I never wanted to throat punch a nurse so bad in my life. I told her the next time they just needed to assume I had the flu and treat it as such and I didn't care if it killed me.

I did various nose swabs when I worked in the ER. I’ve never done one, or seen one done, that deep. They go deep, yes, but that’s insane.

Yes. This is why they say the PPE needed for testing so much.
When they test you with the swab, you are very likely to sneeze or cough. That means the PPE used must be changed and trashed every time someone is tested to prevent spread.

Understand now why they screen people before testing? It is not just a little swab of the nose.

I can tell you with my test she had a long swab and she went all the way from muzzle to chamber.

From what they are saying. They need to get to the back of the nasal cavity to get a better chance to detect the virus.

True Story... just shoot me in the kneecap, couldn't hurt as much as that did !!

P P Pass on that too.

Same thing happened to me in December. Thought I had the flu and got tested. I guess I’ve never been tested before because that was a huge surprise to me. Burned like hell too.

It's about to come out the ear.

Mexico and Brazil will be an absolute real mess.
You have 2 Presidents there who absolutely ignore the pandemic.
German chancellor is the only leader in the World who is doing things right.

I hear it's nice there! Hint hint

The fact that Texas is not under lockdown is absolutely shameful.
I guarantee you, at some point we will. We are just waiting like idiots for the numbers to go up and pull the trigger.

Yea, we know where you stand!

Man, that makes a prostate exam seem like a walk in the park.

I agree with you. I probably should have stayed home today but we were out of a couple of things so I ventured to Walmart. There were whole family units there shopping instead of just sending 1 person. There was a young couple there with their 6 month old baby. Unless something major happens I don't plan on leaving the house for the next few weeks except to fish or check on feeders (same place).

Hey no better time than the present to move. Put your money where your mouth is.

Meh, don't worry about the test. Unless you are near death they will not test you, CDC is no longer attempting to track all the cases......

Another great day in wallstreet to be have.

That 18 K bet will be triggered tomorrow.

Bro. Every thread. It’s tiring. There’s already a prediction thread and a market thread.

Hoping for the US economy to tank is flat out unamerican. You'd think he'd be grateful to be allowed in this great country.
