Holy shit. WA people, listen up. There are a bunch of these centers in WA (I'll do locations in this thread) and they're listed on some government sites as legit testing sites. (1/x)
So, first off, USA Today has already done an expose on this company.

"Marchett, who is a developer, said he looked into the website’s code for the link and found it was "hardcoded," meaning the link was not providing unique information to each user."

usatoday.com/story/news/nat…
So did Newsweek:

"Other state officials are warning people to be wary of illegitimate test sites that could be used to steal people's personal details."

newsweek.com/nationwide-cov…
And here's a Medium article from someone who did a bit of digging into the owners.

"Neal’s response should probably pique the interests of every state attorney general that the Center for Covid Control operates in...

figmic.medium.com/the-center-for…
"...and the federal government authorities funding their activities.

Syed: “So, what’s your annual salary at right now.”

Neal (stumbling and smirking): “1.45 mil. One million and four-hundred and fifty thousand.”"
And again:

Government sites are listing Center for COVID Control apparent scam sites as legit testing sites. E.g.

kitsappublichealth.org/CommunityHealt…
Here's a list of their locations in WA:

-Free COVID Testing Everett
2606 Wetmore Ave, Everett, WA, 98201, US

I cannot emphasize enough:

DO NOT GO TO THESE LOCATIONS FOR TESTS

at BEST, they're not using proper testing procedures and are giving everyone negative results whether they're infected or not

they also appear to be using your personal information to scam federal money
at worst, they might be collecting your personal information for other types of fraud
the question I have is why they're being allowed to operate in WA, and why WA government sites are recommending them as testing sites

@AGOWA
I'd suggest calling the AG and your local representatives and asking to have them investigated, and their sites removed from gov lists of testing sites
The good...? news is it doesn't look like this is being run by Republicans/churches/Qanoners/etc. so I guess it's just an old-fashioned scam and not weird conservative COVID-party/vaccine destruction disease spreading attempts.
But again, why is this scam company, being investigated in multiple states, listed on official lists of testing sites in @KitsapWa?

kitsappublichealth.org/CommunityHealt…
WA residents:

Governor Inslee's phone number: 360-902-4111
Okay, I called the attorney general's office, and they said they can't comment on whether or not it's being investigated, and referred me to the department of health.

Their number is 800-525-0127

Also we can email covid.vaccine@doh.wa.gov
I'm going to try contacting my state-level representatives to see if I can get more traction, since the DOH was kind of like "well, you can file a consumer complaint" and this seems a little different from "this vacuum repair place overcharged me."
I've emailed my state senator and state reps. If anyone else has ideas about who to contact, please drop them here.
and crosspost--another potentially scammy popup testing company in Bellevue and Northgate:

Not sure about OnPoint Testing--it's VERY hard to find actual information about them, but they appear to be a company founded solely to do COVID testing by a founder who also owns import companies, so looks a bit sus
Look, just go get tested at one of the official state-run sites, or at the university, or at a pharmacy, or at a hospital

stay away from these popup sites until we know what's going on

kingcounty.gov/depts/health/c…
yeah, this is a common refrain in the BBB complaints about a lot of these pop-up sites: people who didn't actually submit a sample getting negative results

Another kind of sus testing company:

Covid Clinic

it operates a location in Tukwila, but they're national

the Google reviews are abysmal
And it sounds like they have a history of maybe not having their shit together:

medpagetoday.com/infectiousdise…

ktvu.com/news/sudden-cl…

madison.com/wsj/news/local…
Maybe not, at least this place appears to be a nonprofit, and the founder is actually a doctor, so maybe they're just disorganized.

I'd still go to a state or county-run clinic, a pharmacy, or a hospital, though.
Follow-up on the Center for COVID Control

they've hired Walmart and Uber's PR firm

obviously the above list isn't comprehensive--there could be plenty of scammy sites that are local; these are only two national companies that I know about--and the scamminess is not definitively proven (see earlier in the thread for documentation)
Check your state/county testing locator sites, and if you see any of these sites listed, you may want to contact your department of health to get them removed

otherwise, I'd advise sticking to state/county-run testing sites, pharmacies, and hospitals
Please warn your friends, family, and neighbors about scammy sites in their area.

We gotta look out for each other, folks.
okay, I'm going to go watch something frivolous on TV and then go to bed because I've exhausted my faith in humanity for today

stay safe, y'all
Heya, good morning all, was reading about more fake popups in Philly (but if they're there, you know they're elsewhere too):
Here's more info on fake COVID testing popups in Philly. They tell you they're funded by FEMA but FEMA doesn't know anything about them.

aldianews.com/articles/polit…
"Residents should be suspicious if the pop-up tent is located in the middle of the sidewalk, if staffers say they’re from FEMA, and if there’s no logo on the materials."
"“If you just see a tent set up there with a table, and somebody hand-drew a sign that says ‘free testing,’ probably not legitimate,” Garrow said.""
"However, staffers were allegedly lying about what agency they’re from, and requesting unusual amounts of personal information, including social security numbers."

THEY DO NOT NEED YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER TO ADMINISTER A COVID TEST

DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY #
More about the fake Philly popup testing sites--be on the lookout in your area.
slate.com/technology/202…
Good news, though--the Oregon DOJ is investigating the Center for COVID Control.
wweek.com/news/2022/01/1…
And FYI there were fake testing sites here in WA as early as last April. :-/

seattletimes.com/seattle-news/f…
Again, and I can't emphasize this enough--go to official state-run sites, hospitals, or pharmacies for testing.

I get that if we're exposed, we all want to know immediately if we got COVID, but better to wait longer and be safe, get accurate results, and not risk your PII.
Another potentially scammy company.

Gotta do a couple meetings and some day job work, but will poke around after lunch.

well, if you thought this was bad, I have news about another local testing site, GS Labs in Bellevue, that you're not going to like
Okay, so this is a wild ride.

I googled "free COVID testing Bellevue"

and GS Labs came up pretty early

520 112th Ave NE, Bellevue, WA 98004
interesting that their SEO appears to be tailored to searches for free testing (although I am not an SEO expert, in case anyone who is wants to take a closer look)

because their fine print specifies that you'll pay about $300 out of pocket

Yom Kippur is like the one Jewish holiday that you SHOULDN'T try to do religious tourism at a synagogue.

We're BUSY. It's the most intense, personal, inwardly-focused day of our year.

We don't have bandwidth to guide around gawkers.
Like, I've done multiple threads about why Yom Kippur is not a great time to visit.

And why if you want to visit a synagogue to learn more about your own Christianity, don't:

The other thing I think we all (and I mean *all*) need to reckon with, in the US, is that we can't just handwave things like Jan 6 away with "they don't represent Christianity any more than the Taliban represents Islam."

That's a comforting framework, sure.
But here's the thing.

The Taliban doesn't represent Islam. And it *especially* doesn't represent American Islam. It holds no political power here, and the over*whelming* majority of American Muslims are horrified by it.
Israeli setters don't represent Judaism, and they ESPECIALLY don't represent American Judaism. The *overwhelming* majority of American Jews vehemently oppose them.

Here’s how we KNOW that “progressive” Christians see Christian nationalist evangelicals as Christians, even while they insist to the rest of us that they’re not:

They don’t have any initiatives to proselytize to them.
Like, ok, a lot of more liberal denominations either don’t have missionaries anymore (which, don’t get me wrong, is a GOOD thing) or downplay them, but if y’all genuinely believe that Christian nationalists aren’t really Christian, AND that they’re giving you a bad name…
…it’s not as if you don’t have a bazillion historical models for how to sway non-Christians to your Christianity.

And I mean, none of us were even pretending to be you.

Like, this was literally the 1st QT of the thread with all the Christianity in the Jan 6 failed coup

not "hey, fellow Christians, we have work to do"

not "hey, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, and other non-Christians who might be terrified, I'm with you"

nope. just a #NotALLChristians
and I could pull out a dozen more examples without scrolling that much

Christians are way more concerned that we might not revere them as unquestioned avatars of good

than that *we have to be afraid that they might kill us*

Why are we not making a hundred thousand of these

Let’s all wear diamonds on everything like drinking out of the skull of a defeated enemy

Can they make them in colors?

Also in thin sheets? Diamond iPhone screen protectors?
