There are no appointments available for rapid tests in my area and everyone is out of the home tests. I tried to go to a drive thru free test today during my lunch break, but after sitting in the same spot for 20 minutes I gave up. I'm supposed to see my 92 year old aunt for the first time in 2 years on Christmas Day. I'm triple vaxxed, but I really wish I could have gotten a rapid test today.
