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!
Same here. Urgent care overloaded with the asymptomatic and probably thrice vax'd. Unvaccinated wouldn't go in unless they were sick. These people are so selfish. My father who had health issues before the holiday's had to wait over two days to get a test. PCP wouldn't do anything for him unless he had a covid test. I speak frequently at community board meetings and they're all going to hear it. Many of them are vax'd / test daily f-up's soon to be removed from office.
