Getting tested - have you? - is not neutral on your body. The nasal swab is sterilized by a carcinogen gas which exposure should be limited and you can’t avoid wrong gesture by a nurse physically damaging your nose. It’s fine time to time but not everyday.
- BjoernKW 5y agoRegarding that claim about the carcinogen gas (ethylene oxide) see https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-coronavirus-swabs-idUSL1N2P30YI https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-coronavirus-swabs-... , for example That an object has been exposed to a compound during that object's lifetime doesn't necessarily mean that you'll be exposed to that compound upon touching the object.
