Not sure what is more surreal -- a 44.6% positive rate for COVID in Boone County, Mo., where the University of Missouri just brought students back, or the fact that bars /restaurants/entertainment spaces are still operating indoor service at all. https://t.co/rlG2opMWOU
I've had close contact with 2 students that tested positive and 1 TA. That was on Saturday. It's been almost a week, and no contact tracers have called me. I waited in line for 2.5 hours and was denied a test. You fired my mom and my insurance ends this month. YOU DID THIS.
This information is incorrect. I know someone who tried calling saying they could afford the testing at they said there was no way to get around it. Also the nurse line NEVER picked up because they said the line was busy and to hang up and try again later...for the past 3 days
Important testing info for @Mizzou students: You need a referral to get tested. BUT, there's a FREE nurse assessment line by @muhealth at 573-884-0948 available 8AM-5PM Monday-Friday and 8AM-11AM Saturday. Testing is also free if you do not have insurance.
My roommate and I were exposed and tried getting a test. We couldn’t get tested without a referral and the “free phone screening” wasn’t taking anymore calls because they were full. It’s a shitshow
THREAD: Keeping COVID-19 patients in quarantine is supposed to prevent it from spreading, but @Mizzou students who test positive have a tough decision on where to quarantine. Many of the options could include putting others at risk, even as other schools have a working plan. 1/12
