I understand international travel and some jobs require regular testing. But every other scene on MSM is long test lines and talk on the difficulty of getting tests.

What's the F**king point of testing? If you're sick, stay home? If you're OK, you're fine! People are so obsessed with not being around other people but they're standing in 50-100 people long lines with potentially infected people? I don't GET IT.
I imagine the Government is promoting testing because they just want to pump the numbers up more?
I couldn't help but laugh when reading that a woman tested positive MID-FLIGHT enroute to Iceland. I'm thinking, how the heck did she get on an international flight without a neg test? No, she took a rapid test (yeah, really reliable!) mid-flight and it came back positive!!! 
What am I missing? |
If you have symptoms or if you have been in contact with someone who has tested positive, you should test. But I agree that some people are obsessed with testing. Also, I don’t really trust the rapid tests either.
