March 13: I have a low-grade of 100.8 fever. Called the state health department again and also the Mercy line to see if I could qualify for testing. Again told I did not meet criteria. Called LabCorp and asked about ordering a private test. Told I could not have the testing done at a LabCorp testing center because they did not want to put their staff at risk. Testing had to be done in my office. I do not have any of the viral Universal Transport Medium or synthetic Nasopharyngeal swabs in my office (this is not a routine test), so I have to order these supplies. LabCorp rep says they could give me a maximum of five tests which can be done for five people, and I would receive these supplies in three to four days. I asked if I could pick up at a distribution center locally and was told I could not.
