I've repeatedly tried to get tested. All in the bay area continue to require that you certify that you have chills, cough, fever etc.

SUPER annoying. Sometimes you are just under the weather, sore throat etc and want to do your part - you cannot do that in the bay area. LA area I hear has removed the gatekeeping.

You also have to have a doctors order.

However, you can pay for antibody tests out of pocket around here - that part seems to have escaped the lock down on testing they have going.

There's going to have to be a point at which they allow you to at least pay for your own test if you want - no certification or doctor referral needed. I don't know how we can take the idea that testing is a priority when they make it so hard to get tested.
