Love too take time to sit on hold and scan fucking receipts in (for tests that aren’t even available)

    In functioning countries COVID tests are free and readily available. Don't trick yourself into believing that this is normal or inevitable, it is remarkably shitty.

      I can literally go right now to a number of test sites, each within 20 minutes of biking and get a free test after no more than 15-20 minutes waiting. For absolutely free, and not in the sense that I get reimbursed later. In the sense that I do not pay anything at any point. PCR tests are also free. Publice European healthcare, baby :comfy-cool:

        In my suburb this past week shipping containers have been dropped onto numerous shopping center parking lots where you can get a free covid test. I could bike to any one of them within 20 minutes if I wanted to get hit by a car on the way there.
