Pixel is the best. I saw someone else wrote it here so I want you to know it’s legit and fast and you never have to see anybody. I’ve used it twice and no issues at all.
I just did walk in rapid testing on Saturday. Waited 3.5 hours but got results an hour later and it was free. You don't need symptoms to go there

Please look into the difference between rapid antigen testing and PCR testing. 
Hilarious to me how willful you’re being at everyone’s very kind and non-judgmental replies, when the real issue here is that you made an enormously selfish error of judgment by traveling across the country during the worst phase this country’s seen of this pandemic, without adequate planning to ensure safety throughout the entire process.
Quarantine. If you “can’t” (you can), just know that it’s people like you who’re making this whole thing last and last and last 😘
I asked about how to find a test, that is all
Fudge 2 symptoms when you need to get a test. Ie: I have a sore throat and headache; I lost sense of taste and smell. It’s sad that you have to do that to get a test but unfortunately, it is only way. We were exposed to someone who tested positive, and they won’t let you get a test until you develop symptoms. How the heck are things going to improve if you are walking around getting others sick???
At OP testing is in short supply in NY again. Not really sure why but the usual way of getting tested is backed up because of recent increases. I had exposure two Saturdays ago as someone I know tested positve last Friday. Took me until today to get a test and wont know my results for two days. At best, Im negative, at worst Im asymptomatic but havw already infected my entire family. Kinda defeats the purpose if you cant get a test within 24 hours.

If you can’t get a test you should act as if you have it and be quarantining for 2 weeks
Fixed lol

I honestly think test centers are overwhelmed right now by people trying to go home for the holidays. Try a hospital instead of a city MD or CVS
Same, live near city MD and there were more than 50+ people waiting outside
What about the guidance to stay home?
Well my office lease ends in 2 weeks and I’m the only admin type person at my company so I need to go in to move us out..

Use pixel from LabCorp. They will ship it to you
I did check that and it still wasn’t enough to fit testing criteria

Testing centers run by NY State don’t require that you have symptoms.

They do when you try to make any appointments or order and at home test
Also tell them you just traveled recently on a crowded airplane and you have a headache or some other symptoms. I just had to do that yesterday
Just don’t- how would they know
Have you tried CVS? I flew into NYC last Mon and got a test on Fri. Appointments fill up but are available. Make sure to check early in the morning as I could only book up to 2 days in advance. I also just got my Pixel box today - ordered on Fri. They put a cap on how many can be ordered daily so again check early in the morning.
For pixel, the options I chose were, no symptoms, low risk and testing recommended.
