    Kid started coughing, but its getting into summer and the pollen has been getting bad. "Probably just allergies" we're thinking to ourselves.

    Then we get the note from daycare. "A child in our care has reported a family member testing positive."

    So... now we're off to the doctor to have a q-tip shoved all the way back to the brainpan of our three-year-old.

    Awesome.

      I hope it’s just allergies comrade. I’m currently getting my ass kicked by them. :meow-hug:

        they don’t do spit tests for kids? ouch

        The rapid test still needs the q-tip.

        Also, good news, it's just normal kid crud.
