It may be raining, but there's a rainbow above you

Thanks for asking, No, I need to go to a doctor, get my liver sorted out, bloodtest done, i thought now you could only see one if it was a real emergency (like fever/pain etc) and if you had something (which might very well grow into something bad in the long run) because you had no pain etc you just had to suck it up, even if this lockdown thing takes till the end of the year.
But even if you are allowed now, do i want to go to the same place people with corona also go too, while i'm a riskfactor? I dunno.

Hope you do better.

Thanks, i changed it although it doesnt change the outcome. ;) also forgot to put a = back in so fixed now.

Lots of "doctor's visits" are now done by video call.
They may doing that too where you live.
That's what my wife is doing right now.
Not ideal but at least you can speak with a specialist without risks.

PS: it's a live version but this works in the US (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i03Yhey8DJ4=JOqtH)

For the moment assistents now decide wether you are even important enough to see a doctor, and as far as i know it's still done physically.

Think it's not really integrated yet here, video calling. We even had a long thing about sharing our medical records through the internet and with everyone (doctor, hospital, pharmacy) etc versus privacy.
I think records were even hacked at one point, if they can't even get that straight, let alone videocalling. ;)
But like with my jobcoach we also skype now, she had to adapt and i read more how companies are adapting, like i read how one office had these circles on the floor for people to know how much to keep distance, plastic boards between eachother etc.
Maybe if it takes months longer doctors will be more prone to do video calling.

Is the other version i put in also not working? Seems US is blocking a lot, weird how some urls end up the same still. ;)

yes both versions were blocked by the same company.
Let me look if I can find a version that works here

Strange for the video calling, my brother in law, in France, had symptoms 3 weeks ago and that was the only way he could "see" a doctor. He is now over it. They still don't know if he had covid-19 as they don't have any test. like here or nearly everywhere.

Luckily, they're working hard on producing them so hopefully in 2-3 weeks they should be available everywhere.

Here they are short of tests also and then hospitals go first, then nurses and people in retirement homes, and then maybe us regular folks. but you can't give them enmass, take the flu shot how many show up and then keep 1.5 meter distance, be a long row.
Maybe sent them to homes, take a swab and then return it. I think if everyone gets tested give a good picture nation wide and gives a lot of people more rest if they know they already had it.
