Any test kit would fly


Current test kits are running 3-4 hours. If we had a 15 test kit for Covid 19, it would fly.





I currently have no way of ordering CV-19 testing. Our local hospital ran a drive thru testing line using Cleveland Clinic's test on Monday and Tuesday, and it closed today due to "lack of resources". We got our office manager through the line on Monday, but she still doesn't have results. She has been sequestered all week. I am advising my patients with symptoms to self-sequester for 2 weeks, and I drop off an N95 mask in their mailbox to try to protect their families.** I consult for an assisted living organization with more than two dozen facilities across the state. They have essentially unlimited resources, and they are highly motivated not to have any of their buildings become a "hot spot." I have advised them when the resources are available to test every resident and every employee at least 1x/week in an effort to avoid asymptomatic spread. So far we have found one contractor willing to test our employees just one time, and that's it. These guys have done every single thing I've told them to do, and I have no doubt they would be buying 3,000 tests per week indefinitely- if they could.



**My daily rounds now include two different Lowe's and a Menard's store. No medical supply companies have any N95 masks, but we are slowly acquiring them 1, 2, if we're lucky, 30 at a time at the home improvement stores. I occasionally find an N100 at Lowes, which are awesome, but Menard's is more likely to have some N95 five-packs. I went through the Menard's line six times the other day (limit of 6/person).



Good luck to all during these crazy times, stay on the down-low and stay safe. Find an N95.
