How to do the job

Cuomo at his daily press briefing on TV just got tested for the virus to show the public how easy, quick, and painless it is.

He says in NY anybody with symptoms or who has been in contact with somebody who tested positive can get a test for free.

He and his medical advisors think lots of people who should get tested are not doing it.

Hence the personal demo.

A doctor in full PPE (it looks like a hazmat suit, only less heavy and more blue) stuck a swab about three or four inches up a nostril as cameras flashed.

And that was it.

He said it was painless and he had no discomfort, but I figure that’s not entirely true.

It looks nasty, and I’ve read if it's not actually painful then at least “there will be some discomfort”.
