Couldn't save me of the swab test. / No pude salvarme del hisopado. 😅

I thought I was going to be victorious in this pandemic without having to do a nasal swab test even once, but I didn't. Luckily I have no symptoms of Covid, but anyway I have to do it on a routine basis as a study prior to a surgery that I'm going to have in a few days.
Pensé que iba a salir victoriosa de esta pandemia sin tener que realizarme el hisopado nasal ni una vez pero me temo que no fue así. Por suerte no tengo síntomas de Covid, pero de todos modos debo realizarmelo a modo de rutina como estudio previo a una cirugía que voy a tener pronto.

Here in Argentina, fortunately we have a public and free health system that any citizen can access. During the pandemic, hospitals were a bit collapsed, however luckily it never got to the point of having to deny medical care to anyone.

Currently, to carry out swabs and PCR to detect Covid, this hospital in particular has set up care facilities on the outskirts where they receive people.

Aquí en Argentina afortunadamente tenemos un sistema de salud público y gratuito al que puede acceder cualquier ciudadano. Durante la pandemia estuvieron un poco colapsados los hospitales, sin embargo por suerte nunca se llegó al punto de tener que negarle la atención médica a nadie.

Actualmente, para hacer los hisopados y PCR para detectar Covid, este hospital particularmente ha montado en las afueras unos recintos de atención en donde reciben a la gente.

When it was my turn to do the swab test, they made me wait in a small isolated room until the doctor came.

Cuando llegó mi turno de hacerme el hisopado, me hicieron esperar en un pequeño cuarto aislado hasta que vino el médico.

And here is a photo of me before having the horrible sensation of a swab digging into my nostrils, almost touching my brain 😂.

Now I'm waiting for the result, I will know it in a few hours.

Y aquí una foto mía antes de tener la sensación horrible de un hisopo escarbándote en las fosas nasales, casi tocándote el cerebro jajajaja.

Ahora estoy esperando el resultado, lo voy a tener en un par de horas.

They scratched your brain huh? Lol. My wife had one done a whilst back as she had cold symptoms and was having an operation - It turned out negative for covid, but the positive was that they scratched that itch she's had on her brain for a while now! :)

(Just kidding of course.)

Let's hope you don't have to do it again, but if you do at least you know what to expect.
