Since the Wife started in-person teaching last week we decided that we should be periodically tested for COVID-19. On Saturday I visited TestNebraska and, after completing a few easy questions I was asked if I wanted a test.
On Monday I visited the local (decrepit) mall and, entering the now defunct Sears auto garage, had a swab stuffed up my nostrils. When they say your eyes may water and you may cough they aren't joking. I guess your eyes water and you cough when they tickle your brain with a cotton swab.
Today I received the results from the Monday test (a three day turnaround) and they are:
"You have tested NEGATIVE for coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus that causes COVID-19."
Good news I guess but it is only a snapshot in time. Since the test I've been to Sam's Club and Walmart and the Wife has been to school four times - all possible infection events.
In a couple weeks I'll probably go do it all again. Until then, Woo Hoo I'm Negative!
