Our son, who lives in Chicago, just found out that someone his entire family was with last Saturday has ALL the symptoms of Covid19. But the guys doctor wont test him because of his age (late 30s).
So what is my son, his wife, and two children supposed to do? This is so fd up. EVERYONE with symptoms should be tested.

To get a better handle on how this is spread & the amount of carriers out there. Not just how many are deathly ill.
