The results came back and both she and I are negative. I as the parent who has been out as an essential service, my concern was that I could have brought this into my home. – Bongani Bingwa,
I opted for the throat swab where they put that long earbud looking instrument, it’s a little bit irritating, you gag slightly but it is not uncomfortable or painful at all. – Bongani Bingwa,
