I mean I understand why they want to use chemists. But would I go to one right off the bat? Nope. The line will be around the block and then back around again.
They would need to really really think about how they will put this out there for people. As having hundreds of people in line for hours is not a good idea. At all.
Then the problem comes up if you aren't allowed in work without getting one every week. Then you catch it off someone in the line. Then your back to being out of work.
They can't just put it out into chemists. They would need areas under army control with loads of "stations" to handle the amount of people that will want this.
Saw a TV interview about this. You would have to make an appointment with your pharmacy to get the test done so there is no line. They would also not do it inside the pharmacy, for obvious reasons. Also, it's another source of testing. They're not shifting the tests over to PharmDs completely.
That’s great but this interview included almost no details. Nothing on which testing platform will be used, what testing is offered (viral detection vs antibody), cost (is it covered by insurance or part of the COVID funding), etc.
? Are tests still limited to 'on doctor's order only" or can anyone drive up to get the tests at any of these places? I don't see how all of these people are getting tested unless they are at their doctor's office or ER. And in my little town (only 4 cases in the whole county) the doctors are no longer having in person office visits - they're doing 'phone in' visits only. If that's not satisfactory, they're sending you to ER.
I am tired of hearing about those coronavirus tests, and ventilators too. You could test native for coronavirus and get exposed as you are walking out of the clinic.
The only test worth having is the coronavirus anti-body test, and they are sure dragging there feet on that one.
If you go to your clinic and test positive for coronavirus and they do not immediately put you on the HCQ/Z-pac/zinc cocktail they are guilty of malpractice.
Doctor Birx they have tests for Cov-19 anti-bodies that require a blood draw and she wants one with a finger prick.
In the mean time is anyone doing any Cov-19 anti-body testing and if not - why not? And if someone is doing C-19 anti-body testing what are they finding?
Let's have antibiotics and other common medicine available to all without a doctors prescription. This whole system where you're not trusted to take care of yourself without first paying $150 and waiting for weeks to get into a crowded waiting room with sick people everywhere is ridiculous. Anyone ever realized that system actually causes death? Stupid socialism always ends up harming people.
We need the pills also
Make Hydroxy Chloraquine over the counter like it is in every malaria stricken country.
Why would they even need to be "allowed"?

Great idea! With this distraction, perhaps I could sneak into the grocery store and buy TP!
