Just had to be tested (wife is in health care, we have some mild symptoms), Baxymoron is not joking about how deep that swab goes. Tickled my freaking brain.
Very organised process, calling the Healthline, drive through testing. People testing stand two metres back and are full masked and gowned. Very efficient and helpful.
No road blocks Surprising number of people jogging, must be super bored already.
Eeek! Fingers cross all ok bud!
Eeek?

I'm fine, if we weren't in a pandemic it would barely register as anything more than a head cold. As soon as you start coughing at the moment, the lizard part of your brain freaks out.
I've only been tested because my of my wife. Her friend at one of the hospitals has been put in self isolation too as she was exposed to a patient that's tested positive.
losing the health care workers is what puts a strain on the system.

How long for results? Hoping for the best outcome for you and your family, mate. Again, as we said to @voodoo with his position, if you need anything, don't hesitate to ask.

I had a perspective moment today when out in the pouring rain, cursing a broken trough that we didn't have the right diameter fitting for and trying to re-rig the old system.
I'm home, fed and dry now and it really wasn't a big deal compared to what all the health care workers are doing at this point in time.
(Worst part was if I hadn't mucked around with it in the first place for the smallest of leaks, I wouldn't have had to fix it)

@Hooroo 2-5 days. Thanks, appreicate it. Wife is super organised, so we have supplies aplenty as we can no longer even go to the supermarket (five days strict isolation).
That's hardcore. Why the stricter rules?

Reflex. That’s the part of your brain that prioritizes survival, without your having to think too deeply about it. Good thing to have.

Until the test results come back they want you to assume you have it and avoid other people.

Mate, don't sell yourself short. You've kept this website going for how many years now, all for this moment in time.

Oh, and it's been eighteen years I've been hosting this in one form or another. Inertia takes over at some point right?
