Covid testing and Vaccine

The company offered PCR test with salary deduction. Oh, it's not free. I thought it's going to be free. Since I'm a casual contact with no symptom, the price is too much for me. So I try contacting local clinic to ask whether they offer the test. A clinic in the town offer RTK test as well. No appointment, just walk in and poke my nose. For PCR, I need to book first. They advised me to go to the hospital if I am a close contact. That's the thing, I'm not a close contact. When will my name is going to be called for vaccine shot? BFF is already on the list. She's overjoyed about it and shared with me at 2 am. Good thing both of us are still awake at the time.

Wow! I'm glad you were still awake when she called with the good news.

Yeah, I hope you get vaccinated soon. I wouldn't worry about you as much, then.

I had two cups of coffee around 9pm, so both of us were awake at that time

I don't know when my name would be call. Even Mom still doesn't get hers.

@prinzcy I see... *sigh* Bring mom and Lil Bro with you when you come and just get vaccinated here. Vaccinations are free and they don't check IDs before they give them.

Vaccine is under the government. We can get the swab test for free from the government hospital if we're close contact to the patient. Unfortunately I'm not. But for the sake of my peace of mind, it's better to get the test done. I'm worried about infecting others unconsciously.

That's my greatest wish too! I need to boost my immune system more as well.

Some of my relatives already got vaccinated against Covid-19. I haven't done that yet.

@YrNemo then it's better to consult with your doctor first. The thing that work for others might not be the same for you.

But it's easy to get it right?

@prinzcy Heard that it is very easy with my age group (but I am a bit reluctant, since I often got very bad side reactions with flu shots.)

I've never had a PCR test before, those are expensive.

I guess they can't afford paying for all, but 50% discount would have been nice, right?

Poor people would just die. Still contemplating to do the RTK. I need to confirm with the clinic whether I can pay with card.

Sadly, I couldn't get one because seniors were still being prioritize but some of my family members from different cities have it.

Yes, but that one is pricey and need to book first. Better do RTK as it's not confirm that I have Covid.

Hope all is clear. Stay positive but test negative is the best approach for all.
