☝️ recently got a covid test that based on all my research beforehand, it should have been covered except for $10 I would pay.
Jokes on me, it actually cost me $200 they charged to my credit card two weeks later. I didn’t even get to know the price at the time I needed medical care.
Sometimes other countries make fun of America for things they don’t understand. Not on this one, America deserves every bit of mocking it gets for it’s medical coverage atrocity.
Nose swab into a piece of lab equipment about the size of a bread toaster. They put the swab into the thing right in front of me but I didn’t note any further details about the equipment.
I went in for strep testing (which is what it ended up being). They advised covid test too due to local outbreak, I predicted that they might so had done some prep research and thought I could expect a much lower bill.
Americans stupidity is another one that they get correct but there’s plenty of things to laugh about America as there is to laugh about 3rd world countries.
Health Insurance that covers next to nothing but costs a fortune anyway.

A lateral flow test or something using a lab?
Must be a lab test as lateral flow is like £2:

Lesson learned, avoid getting tested for covid 😂
It’s a developing country. You will catch up.
Also you are very good at destroying things with weapons and intelligence agencies, so that’s something you are good at.
Also we guys in western Europe are happy we are not ruled by Russia or China, and that’s because of the USA I think.
I kind of like the US culture, but it’s ridiculous how they treat human beings when money and power is on the line.
It isn’t and we won’t. The US is a post-developed country backsliding.
Yeah man that and the cheese are just unforgivable
