The CDC is still instructing healthcare providers NOT to test UNLESS a person has either come into contact with a known COVID-19 carrier OR recently traveled abroad. Otherwise, the guideline is "do not test."
I am married to a healthcare provider. Nevermind clinical judgement, context, or an abundance of available tests. If you don't meet the above guidelines, my spouse is being firmly instructed by the clinical practice manager to follow the CDC guideline: do not test.
- MikeAmelung 7y agoSomeone needs to update your clinical practice manager with the info from 2 weeks ago: https://emergency.cdc.gov/han/2020/han00429.asp https://emergency.cdc.gov/han/2020/han00429.asp
