Coronavirus, Covid 19 Discussion and How It Has Affected Your Daily Life Chat Thread

Just read this in our local paper for my county, guess the schools are not the only one's being given test kits;
"- Delaware County received 2,000 COVID-19 test kits on Thursday, Jan. 6 as a part of Governor Kathy Hochul’s “Winter Surge Plan,” said Delaware County Emergency Services Director Stephen Hood.
Test kits were divided up among the 19 towns. The number of kits allocated to each town were were based on population, said Hood.
According to Hood, kit distribution must remain within town limits.
While there are no restrictions on how many test kits one individual can acquire, the county encourages residents to take what is needed and if families can afford to purchase them in-store to do so, said Hood. “Numbers are very limited,” he said."

I am really disgusted by the government way of handling this mess. Does no one have any common sense any more.

That's what happens when you get 100 different answers and decide to do them all. That'll work let's just do everything

All the government is doing by mailing citizens 1 test is wasting an awful lot of money for what? Ok send them out cool everybody has a test heck everybody is + ok now what. No different than yesterday except upping the debt a bit and no tests for people who otherwise would actually need it

Actually...it does mean something. People getting tested at home.
...so the results are private...
...no more testing at testing sites...
...where they count the numbers...
Ergo: no more covid.

Definitely feeling the shortness of breath now. Have to either sleep sitting up or on my stomach or else I feel like i’m under a weighted blanket.

Lost 5lb in 2 days, so I guess that’s a bonus? Not much of an appetite so I’m forcing myself to eat 3 meals a day
