I arrived at 10am with my sick daughter. She has a fever, sore throat, body ache and headache. Sick now for 2 days.I have to wait hours to see a fucking doctor because the clinic is overwhelmed with healthy people needing covid tests for travel or work. WTF?!? People who are actually sick can’t get help because healthy people are being forced to test just to live their fucking lives.
Edited to add: this gets even more ridiculous. The clinic doesn’t bill insurance for rapid tests. You have to pay out of pocket for a rapid covid test $150, and $175 for a rapid flu/covid test. And they don’t stock the plain old rapid flu test so you have no choice but to either get the bogus discontinued PCR test or pay to get the rapid test. They don’t tell you this until you wait 2+ Hours to see a dr. What a fucking racket!
WTF ever happened to just giving kids some chicken noodle soup, some over the counter meds like nyquil, a few crackers, and a day binge watching Barney. Kids have the best immune systems (if unvaxxed).. you don't need to rush them to urgent care and get others sick anyways. But i agree about the testing bullshit, healthy people shouldnt have to and there are tests that you can buy at CVS for $10 that do the same shit.
