Thanks. I did a test. Took my own sample and sent it to a lab. In less than a week I had the results. They used FedEx to deliver the test and I needed to send it back. (Shipping was all free...but the test cost about $100.). I really liked that I could track things online.) my test was negative as of one month ago!

The article was very informative, especially about the 6 inch swab. I noticed how uncomfortable it looked for people and wondered why. Now I understand precisely why it is unpleasant. Thanks for the link.

Yes, those long swabs must be the ones meant in the article when it refers to "the brain-tickling version."

Brain tickling? Oh good, I have nothing to worry about!
