    2 weeks would be helpful. Hopefully would not be too bad financially. Government giving checks probably more than any of us make in that 2 week period. Would cost more to pay medical bills. Not just the testing but being hospitalized and maybe death! Go for 2 weeks at least see where we are at that point! Pass the gun permits people have applied for!
