Yeah, that does sound like a situation where workplace provided testing should happen.
It infuriates me that testing is not a free and widely available thing. It's just so obvious! AARGH
I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

if he needs a pitstop, Laura I can give you my #.
Thank you. I appreciate that. I may take you up on it during my return trip at the end of October. He has found a couple dog parks along the route so far. He'll be able to let the dog run at the park next to his sister's place too.
Really grateful to be where testing is easy to find and free.

As for the cats, what I read was that they could potentially catch the virus from humans but couldn't pass it to humans, so wouldn't be vectors.
Having a cat that frequently sneezes until she looks like the victim of a Ghostbusters-style sliming, I don't feel confident that an infected cat wouldn't be able to pass it on to nearby humans.

I don't remember what the basis for that conclusion was, could not begin to guess how reliable it might be.

Hey. New board.
My experience in MN was that if you could say you had any symptom (from a long list) or knew you had been exposed or had been in a mass protest, you could go to a drive through. We had none of that and still were able to get tested at a drive through for travel after consulting with a nurse practitioner (and charging our insurance 500 dollars of course). There was no line, we were in and out in five minutes and had the results the next day.
Capacity is increasing. It is just tricky I think to figure out how to use the extra (not obviously symptomatic or from contact tracing) capacity to best effect.

I went to get a pedicure today (supporting local business!!) and the guy came to take my temperature with no mask on. You win some, you lose some.

We have a zoom appointment with a therapist tomorrow for ltc because she's really not sleeping well lately as well as having some other behavioral issues. I'm nervous and have no idea if ltc will even agree to talk. So, wish us luck.

Zoom~ma, sj. I hope it goes well.
