[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our school just texted us to say they’re out of tests and don’t come tomorrow until we hear from them so there’s that….[/quote]

just pick up one at  library. [/quote]

or another school[/quote]

or a firehouse[/quote]

Firehouses are not handing out rapid tests tomorrow at 8:30.

Do you all understand what you’re asking others to “simply” do rather than admitting DC is f-ing this up.

I mean the whole notion that parents have to test their kids on Wednesday and upload the results by 4pm? To a site that is currently down to teachers.

I am a single mom that lives very far uptown that commutes in person to Fairfax. I work 9-5:30. I have to leave my house (near Silver Spring) by 8am to get to work on time. What time do you think I should pick up these simple tests from my kid’s school? Where? What time should I test my kid? Should I drop him off at daycare at 7am, get test from school at 8:30, now go to a different school which will get me the test by 8:45, go back to test my kid at daycare, get to work at 10:30, use 2 hours sick leave? Or should I leave work at 2pm and hope and pray they will have tests by the time I get to a random school at 3pm? Or should I just go to 4 pharmacies to get an OTC test and pay $25 that I don’t have in my budget this week?

People that say “just do this” really have no idea how the working class live.

At the very least, the mayor could have given families until 7pm to upload.

We are going to just upload at 7pm ish and hope and pray. [/quote]

To this PP, I just want to say I am really sorry.  I'm sorry for your loss, I'm sorry for the responses you've gotten here, and I'm sorry that your life is so complicated and difficult.  This pandemic and our government's response to it has really made life so impossibly hard for parents and kids.  I wish I knew you in real life so that I could help you out.  For what it's worth, and as 'm sure you've learned by now, the schools are going to accept all manner of proof of a negative test result tomorrow.  Best of luck to you.[/quote]
