Cardi B Complains Of Expensive COVID 19 Tests! Cardi B is complaining of exorbitant Covid 19 tests admitting Covid testing is a now a new business. The hip hop star says she has to pay $250 (£180) for each COVID-19 test for her and her team in order to continue working during the pandemic.
The “WAP” hitmaker admits she has to foot the bill multiple times a week because her entire hair and makeup crew and members of her management must all receive the COVID test all clear before they can join her on a film, TV or music video set, and it’s costing her big.
“I get Covid tested bout 4 times a week,” she shared on Twitter. “My glam and management gotta get tested as well. Every time we get tested is about 250$ each. This is seriously a new business (sic).”
She explained that she has no choice but to abide by the rigorous testing schedules if at all she wants to work, because it’s all part of the strict health and safety regulations introduced by industry officials to minimize the spread of the virus while at the same time enabling filming to continue.
“It’s necessary because if you in my space and you get Covid I can get sued (sic),” she told one follower. “If I do a commercial and I get Covid the company can get sued.Its all about not being a liability and is a requirement… we pay out our own pockets (sic).”
One follower who was of the opinion Cardi was making a fuss out of nothing got the following reply;
“Well this tweet is not about complaining is about CAPITALISM! How Covid is becoming a business…,” she wrote. “How ya getting mad at me because it’s a requirement to get tested? Just to shoot a commercial even the janitors must get tested twice (sic).”
