Coastal Urgent Care is supposed to have them, too. Wherever he goes, call first to make sure they have them in stock. Coastal ran out a couple weeks ago, so we had to get the one that takes 2 days.

Don’t know where you’re located but my wife and I went to lake urgent care at highland and airline in Prairieville Sunday to get tested. About 30 minutes start to finish and had results immediately.

If it’s a rapid blood test, it’s an antibody

If it’s a rapid nasal swap based test, it’s antigen.

If it’s a long response time blood test, they are doing PCR

Unless he’s over 80 years old with health issues, there is an 99.9999% survival rate. He has a better chance of dying from the testing QTip breaking in his sinus cavity.

Treat it like a regular flu. He’ll be fine in a couple days. Take VitC and Zinc.

Guess you missed the part where they needed it for verification from the office.
