Ultrasound, then blood work.

I'll be wearing both a mask and a full face shield.

I'd wear a spacesuit if I could.

I was totally dumbfounded the last time I walked into a lab to get blood work. People with their masks around their neck, eating, coughing in between bites. No one enforcing the mask rules.

I won't even wait in the waiting room. I'll give them my phone number, go stand outside, and ask them to call me when they are ready for me.

I'm not letting some dumb fuck infect me if I can help it.
