Upon being told by an ED staff member that Covid PCR tests were not done 24/7, I asked why, with the emerging community spread? I believe the staff member replied blame the premier.
Then, when I asked if not 24/7 testing, why doesn't the hospital employ Rapid Antigen testing to aid throughput of patients?
I recall the answer by the staff member was because the premier doesn't believe in them.
I felt like I wasn't being respected when making a genuine query. My parent was in ED with a cardiac related symptom, but it seemed to me the Covid investigation took precedence.
