    The Senate passes a coronavirus response measure that would provide for free testing and mandate that employers provide sick leave to workers who get COVID-19. The package now goes to President Trump for his signature.http://apne.ws/MsFLXo5

        It is really important for this to be official. I you are sick get tested immediately, or your employer may not follow through with this.

        What test. I just got sent home with symptoms and told to self quarantine for 14 days. Did not meet guidelines to get test. I am 65, take an auto-immune drug for crowns, type 2 diabetic, cough, and mild fever. Have not had direct contact. This is real life.

        That’s great. Now we need to figure out how to get tested to find out if we do have coved-19, so we can get sick leave, otherwise you are out of luck.

        What about the workers who get laid off or are quarantined WITHOUT the virus? There are only thousands of people diagnosed right now...

        It's a start, but doesn't do any good to make the test freen if they aren't available in all areas, and that there's the infrastructure to run the tests.
