24. Oh I 100% agree with you there!

I'm just a little disappointed at the current administration and what seems to be a more reactionary response. I remember here in San Diego when the vaccines started rolling out and how it was close to impossible to get a vaccine appointment. That eased up over a few months, but then all of our testing locations dwindled and it's been extremely difficult to schedule a COVID test here. I made an appointment for the soonest appointment a few weeks ago and the soonest I could book an appointment was 13 days later. Here we are two years into COVID and we're just now sending out 4 tests to each household, which is awesome, but... a little behind the curve. What if you have a household of more than 4 people? Then you're back to the luck of the draw for a COVID test appointment in a timely fashion, or hoping you get lucky and one of the handful of CVS, Rite Aid, Walgreens have at home tests for purchase.
