I would volunteer for that. We're shut down for at least the rest of the month, and my job involves a lot of contact with older folks. Might as well have it, get it over with, and reduce the likelihood of passing it on unknowingly when things open back up.

As it stands, I don't know if I've had it or not (my partner had all the symptoms but tested negative in March, but I've recently been reading that the tests could have as high as 30% false-negative rate). I've had a couple bouts of sore throat/stuffy nose in the last month so I'm hoping it was My Corona and not just allergies or something.
