Spent several hours today attempting to get a rapid test. Tried Instacart, which failed, then went to Walgreens, Safeway, called two CVSes, checked online catalogues and attempted to see in-store inventories at each pharmacy, and finally was able to schedule a test at a clinic.
The test is tomorrow, and I have to walk to the clinic again, at which point the results will take 48-72 hours to turn around.
While on the East Coast for most of this year, testing was much easier. Resources existed for free next-day PCR text delivery, and NYC had pop-up testing sites everywhere.
For San Francisco, this is nuts. As we continue through the holidays it is nearly impossible to get a COVID test before the end of the year. Massive local and state (and federal) public health failure. @LondonBreed @SF_DPH @sfchronicle
