As the days passed, the first colleague through the line each morning would text a scouting report to the rest of us about the aggressiveness of the swabber.

The swabber working in the mobile Covid testing van parked at Conference House Park, Jesse Henry, said he was not vaccinated.

Organizers use unforeseeable lingo such as “swabber,” “delta” and “positive test within the Tier 1 group.”

Maybe five seconds per nostril with a six-inch swabber that reaches the sinus cavity where COVID-19 likes to live.

Perhaps if Bittle gets another chance to partake in the moment, he could parlay his experience into a promotion from fecal collector to nose swabber.
