After what I experienced today, I wonder if the “COVID is a hoax folks” are right.
One of the guests at a holiday party we went to (everyone there was vaccinated) tested positive for COVID several days later.
Being the good citizens that we are and not wanting to risk adding to community spread, we decided to get tested.
Well, the first call was to our primary health care provider. They are no longer testing. Next was all the local big-box pharmacies. They are no longer scheduling testing. Then on to over-the-counter tests. No one has them in stock, and they don’t expect them in any time soon.
I called the Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention. They were worthless.
I wonder if the past two years were some kind of scam by the so-called “health care industry.” They keep saying the virus is spreading but want nothing to do with stopping it. I guess they are taking the Donald Trump approach of “if you don’t test, you won’t have the virus.”
