My son just moved home one week ago. He is in his mid 20's. On Monday he felt very ill. We insisted he get a Covid test. Not for us, but on behalf of my wife's mother who just had hip surgery and is in a rehabilitation center. My wife refused to visit her 85 year old mother without knowing if she, herself, had the virus.

So, yes, get tested. At least once. It is not political. Then again, I am in a zone where individuals are cautious.
