Attempted to go to CVS' Minute Clinic. Several others were waiting to be seen, but no medical professional came out. Got OTC meds on what was available on sparse shelves.

News story. At home tests are not included in data in this state, anyway. Staffing shortages to investigate contract tracing.

At home tests are not included because they are even less reliable than the pcr test and give many false positives.

There is no reason to test yourself for covid because there are no special medications or treatments being given for anyone with mild symptoms unless you get lucky and have a doc that will give ivermectin. Or recommend supplements like d3, vitamin c, quercetin with zinc (careful with taking to much zinc though).

Can you imagine if they had all this testing for the flu. Talk about a money maker. Maybe they will have it in 2023 then people will be able to test themselves all winter.

I will never get tested for covid or take the vaccine.

Most BP devices check BP and pulse.
The oximeter tests O2 and pulse.

I haven’t seen a BP device that tests O2 but I see on Amazon, they exist! Good to know.

"I will never get tested for covid or take the vaccine."

The stance of my niece-in-law... until... she was in the ER with her 11-year-old niece who NIL has custody of. The child couldn't breathe, tested positive for covid, and was too many days in for antibodies to work well. In 14 hours she would be on a vent. Her younger sister who went thru the original covid with moderate symptoms 3 months earlier, was also positive but an antibody infusion worked well. NIL ended up hospitalized and on oxygen. The five other members of the household (my nephew and his kids as well as her older son) were vaccinated and had mild symptoms for 1-2 days. I also had mild symptoms for 1 day after I began taking care of NIL's 7-year-old son (my grand-nephew) while his mother was hospitalized.

Thank God for the vaccine and my nephew who took the vaccine and had his sons vaccinated! We are still praying the 11-year-old gets to come home soon.

Getting used to the new NH. My new wheelchair got delivered. Monday PT will come to help me lead how to get up. My surgeon says I can be out of the sling for half an hour a day. Looking forward to this little bit of progress. Having surgery on my leg and ankle a week from next Monday. Counting the days.
