Order your rapid tests from the USPS (US only)
So I had a sister that got sick, she took a test, not COVID. She was still sick a little while later, another test another negative. She finally took a third one and that returned a COVID positive test.<p>In the meantime my children have been sick for a little while, and we got one of them tested and it was negative; however right before they got sick we had interaction with someone who had a positive COVID test shortly thereafter.<p>I am starting to wonder at the efficacy of the tests and is it that they just can't catch Omnicron as well? Are my kids really just sick with some other random thing despite dozens of people in our social circle getting COVID?<p>I'm just wondering at this point if there is a reason for the mass testing, because it doesn't really let you know anything except whether or not you have COVID and you'll get better or get worse. I can understand in hospitals or something like that, but in the general population I am failing to understand as it seems Omicron is incredibly virulent, and you can spread before you have symptoms, so what is the end game with the mass testing?
