@jokerzwild My guess is that tests being done at pharmacies are low priority tests. I know they just collect the tests and ship them out.

Our hospital collects the tests and sends them out also but the reason for the test determines which lab gets the swab.
If someone is sick and being admitted to the hospital the results are back the next day.
If someone is going into the hospital for a planned surgery the results are back in 2 days.
If someone has been exposed the assumption is that the person is self-quarantining and results are back in 4 days.
Some people wanted to be tested before Christmas so they could get together with family. Their tests were back in 4-5 days during which time they were supposed to be quarantining.

No offense but I’m sure travel to HI is considered low priority. Some insurances don’t cover stuff like shots required for travel because its not medically necessary. Its like Plastic Surgery. Skin grafting because of a bad burn is covered. Chin tucks are not.

@sonofzeus So, looks like we lucked out. I hadn’t canceled one of the early reservations that I thought I had canceled… That is a week at just over $300 for a mid-size SUV. I have a backup reservation at just over $600 for the week for a Jeep. As much as I’d like the Jeep, Hawaii is expensive and I think I’d rather spend less for a car, especially since one of our travelmates backed out. Since the prices have skyrocketed, there’s no way I’ll get that $300 rate again, so thinking that’s the best option. Unfortunately, the time it’s due back is 1pm (it was for our old flight) and now we’re leaving at 11pm (same day). So, I’ll see what their hourly rate is for going over the time and returning 8-9 hours later.

It’s through Hertz and I am President’s Circle status with them although in reading some of the forum posts, they assign a car and don’t have a “take what you want” option at this location.

I was too slow.

OOS now.

@mom2jel thanks! I’ll give it a try. I’m trying to keep up with some of my reddit feeds and some of the news sources, etc., so it’s helpful.

Thanks!

That’s what I thought too… $317k. Price was listed on the package they supplied at the showing.

@atikovi said in Flood Insurance questions:

How much is the house worth? That seems like a lot unless it’s a million dollar property.

Thanks!!
