Yeah, that's likely going to be the plan, but we now have to delay another 14 days between both me and my wife. It's just kind of pathetic that it's this hard to get get tested for screening/contact tracing purposes when all state/county/local/expert guidance is to get screened as soon as possible when certain conditions (travel/symptoms) are met.
It seems to me like a failure of administration. We have had rapid point of care tests available for quite a few months now but for some reason nobody stocked them for general screening in Maryland/DC/Virginia at least. I have heard firsthand accounts that in Florida and Texas you can get regular screening results turned around in less than an hour, and you don't even need an appointment, much less a doctor's note.
Maybe I'm still just ranting, but I get real pissed when policy and practice mismatch this badly.
