@yo_era_mark Anna Mae Cole has been incredibly speedy for a year, but they have had their hours cut back so much. You used to zip in and out and get the results in 12 hours-- which is critical time when you need to know if you have COVID or another illness that needs different treatment.

@NoCopsNoMasters That’s where I ended up going! Unfortunately it is not as fast as it used to be

@onekade A few friends have gotten really bad colds with the same symptoms, so in this world I’m actually praying I have a cold

@yo_era_mark So real. The sights need to open back up for full time testing. It’s like this in JP too

@yo_era_mark last time I was tested I had to go to Waltham to get any kind of timely result

@yo_era_mark Nor is it how a Commonwealth takes it seriously… Hmm, maybe instead of LIFTING a state of emergency that allowed for more flexible rapid response () we should have, oh I dunno, left it in place? #mapoli

@yo_era_mark Hoping for a speedy recovery

@yo_era_mark @WelcomeToDot Is the airport the only place left to do rapid walk ins and they charge a lot. florida had them on the side of road in miami for free!!

@yo_era_mark But the glass slipper???

@yo_era_mark @JosieGL If you call the BWH Covid nursing hotline I’ve been able to get same day testing and results the next morning

@yo_era_mark Insane

@yo_era_mark Boston?? Oh gracious I would have assumed them better

@yo_era_mark If you want to try something quick, they have an over the counter test you can buy at CVS, not as accurate as a PCR, but only takes about 15 min.

@yo_era_mark Mentioned this to someone else, but about a quarter a million people will be moving back to Boston this week and next week for College, and this is likely impacting testing in and around the city. Many schools are providing on campus testing but not all of them.

@yo_era_mark So frustrating. I hope you're ok and feel better quickly.

@yo_era_mark If @MassGovernor took it seriously he would have re instituted a statewide mask mandate and kept all testing sites up and running.
