out of precaution rather than suspicion, i drove to
cpcc harris campus earlier to get tested for covid 19. it was in a parking deck
and the people were so nice. a lady even walked up to give us a pamphlet and 4
masks. after hearing horror stories and people claiming they touch your brain with the swab, i was a bit nervous. i pulled up, the lady asked a few questions
regarding contact tracing and symptoms. i told her i didn’t have any symptoms,
and she said that was okay for testing. i had to take my mask below my nose, but not my mouth. she swabbed both
nostrils. there was some sort of gel or paste on the swabs. they cleared my
nose initially, but when i drove off, my nose clogged up. it wasn’t too bad, or
uncomfortable. i’m one of those people who picks their nose with a kleenex, so
it was nothing to me. bbq chicken as shaq would say lol. results should be back
in 48-72 hours, so we’ll wait until then.
it’s 2020, getting swab-tested for covid-19 is a part of the experience.
