My daughter's best friend was exposed to Covid [View all]

Here's how bollixed up things are in TN. She woke up in the night with chills. This morning she had a sore throat. So she figured she needed a test. You have to register for the test online, but there are no questions about whether you have symptoms or for how long. Then you go to the test site. And wait. And wait. Just to check in. After 2 1/2 hours, she was asked if she had symptoms. Yes. For how long? Since last night. "Oh, we can't test you until you've had symptoms for 24 hours. Come back tomorrow." (And expose everyone else while you sit here for another 2 1/2 hours).

Wouldn't it just be simpler to ask that on the website where you register? Jesus, Tennessee.
