I May Have To Travel Abroad (Original Post)

Mar 2020
OP
dawg day
(7,947 posts)1. I saw that the "third-world" country Senegal-
has plenty of tests and you get the results in 4 hours.
Really, if poor countries like that can manage this, why can't we? It makes no sense. What happened that we don't have tests and we don't have the analysis materials-- we're the United States. What's wrong?

Wow.

I dont know what state you live in, but contact your county health department and anyone else you can.
If you really think youre infected, contact your local news stations.
Meantime, drink lots of fluids and take care of yourself. Keep us posted.
