PCR Test
Added 2021-01-03 13:39:59 +0000 UTCWe just had the PCR test for Covid-19.
It's a free test for every body in a local lab. Joe booked an appointment for both of us, and we drove to the lab on a week-end. We expected to see a lot of people there getting the test, but to our surprise, there weren't that much. There were plenty of empty parking lots in front of the lab actually.
The whole test for both of us took a minute, I mean, literally a minute or two. You go in, they checked your ID, you wash your hands, and we were led to the next room which is a biiiiig empty hall. You lay on a bench. The nurse put the cotton stick in your nose for 5 seconds and it's done. Everyone in the lab is wearing mask, of course. The whole process is the definition of efficiency, which you rarely see in France. Did I mention this PCF test is also completely FREE?
We got tested in the morning, and we received the test results by e-mail in the evening on the same day.
And luckily, both of our results are negative. XD

I just got tested recently. Mike tested positive, but I am still waiting for my results. Luckily, he has been absolutely (and inexplicably) asymptomatic. Me too, thank God.

2021-01-04 00:11:20 +0000 UTCSo glad you're both negative!! Hubby and I got tested 3 times around August because he got a bad viral infection and we wanted to eliminate COVID from the things it could be. They actually had it set up that you could drive up to get the test from nurses in full gowns and facemasks. We got a robo-call a day or 2 later with the results. Negative all three times for both of us.

2021-01-03 16:52:59 +0000 UTCI'm very happy to see your stories of Joe and Lolo back. That's what you grow your art with and your community with, and that's your expression media, your way of sharing ideas and stories. That's a great value. Whatever if "that's you 100% or not" art is not always about biographies, or perfect self portraits, but about stories they relate and ideas they transfer. And whatever if that's modified or not : art is always a modification and transcripts of ideas. So whatever... We are not on Nature Magazine or Nationnal Geographic channel. And BTW even a documentary is always a biased vision, a certain point of view of reality.

2021-01-03 14:01:00 +0000 UTCI'm sorry, but could you draw yourself and your man instead when you say that it was you that took the test? It would be less confusing and more relatable than drawing your friend and say that it was you.
