Spouse anon works at a Veterinary Emergency Hospital, 14 years, with 82 employee's. All but 4, spouse included, are vaccinated with the majority triple vaxed. Last week 12 employee's, all vaxed, went on mandatory 5 day quarantine after tested positive for CV. Spouse received an email yesterday afternoon advising she had been in contact with a DR who tested positive and was advised not to come to work until she had a negative test. Spent three hours searching for at home kits, none anywhere and none available online. This morning went to Urgent Care, got a rapid test and it was negative. She can return to work tomorrow.
Here's the issue. Essentially every single employee in the facility has been exposed by the 12 positives, but not everybody was required to test. So spouse will return tomorrow and most likely be exposed yet again and require another negative test, is our assumption. The hospital is slammed and already short handed. If management intends to keep this testing policy, we see their business closing doors within a few months. Per doctor at Urgent Care: CV = the flue and Omicron = the common cold.
