        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Joe Rogan flaunted his ability to obtain coveted coronavirus tests in an episode of his podcast with comedian Chris D’Elia Wednesday, sparking backlash from angry fans.</p><p>“I got tested yesterday, and I got tested two days before that. I’m just going to test myself every three or four days. F&#8211;k it,”<strong> Rogan said on his show</strong>, “The Joe Rogan Experience.”</p><p>Rogan is paying Los Angeles concierge doctor Abe Malkin to test guests, including D’Elia and Bryan Callen, who come onto his podcast, <strong>Yahoo reported</strong>.</p><p>“Chris D’Elia is negative. Yayyyy!” Rogan said at the start of the show.</p><p>“That’s right, I got the test,” D’Elia responded.</p><p>Rogan then asked D’Elia, “Isn’t it nice?”</p><p>“You know why I got the test? Because I know Joe Rogan. Because I came here and he had a doctor,” D’Elia continued.</p><p>In New York City, <strong>hospitals are &#8220;days&#8221; away</strong> from running out of COVID-19 tests and city officials are sounding the alarm on the disparity between the wealthy&#8217;s ability to get tests and <strong>low-income folks&#8217; lack of access</strong>.</p><p>Rogan’s fans have slammed the UFC commentator and &#8220;Fear Factor&#8221; host for bragging about his ability to get tested for COVID-19.</p><p>“If you can’t get a #coronavirus test it’s cause Joe Rogan hoarding all them bitches. Good lord,” <a href="https://twitter.com/thegreyrock/status/1250673779543609344" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">@thegreyrock tweeted</a>.</p><p>Huffington Post reporter <a href="https://twitter.com/rklein90/status/1251197159623528448" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Rebecca Klein tweeted</a> that a doctor friend of hers couldn’t even get tested. “A close friend, a doctor, presumably had coronavirus but couldn&#8217;t get tested in NYC. Cool that Joe Rogan is able to test his pals like it&#8217;s nothing,” she wrote.</p><p>Others joked that the only way to get tested <a href="https://twitter.com/Bicuriousbogle/status/1250952883404668928" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">was to appear on his podcast</a>.</p><p>“I don’t need to talk to joe rogan I just want a corona virus test,” <a href="https://twitter.com/Bicuriousbogle/status/1250952883404668928" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">wrote @bicuriousbogle</a>.</p><p>“People like Joe Rogan bragging everyday how him and his friends are being tested daily is just ridiculous,” <a href="https://twitter.com/RJB_Calif805/status/1250975524773482496" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tweeted @rjb_calif805</a>. &#8220;Joe Rogan has had multiple coronavirus test with negative results. What the hell man?”</p><p>Malkin <strong>told Vice</strong>&nbsp;that Concierge MD LA began offering nasal swab testing several weeks ago, but he now mostly administers an antibody test that is not approved by the FDA.</p><p>&#8220;There&#8217;s about 70 companies producing antibody tests, and only one of them is FDA approved, that&#8217;s Cellex. I don&#8217;t know how the hell they got that contract that they got FDA approval, but it&#8217;s impossible to get those tests,&#8221; Malkin told Vice.</p><p>&#8220;I give everyone a disclaimer, it&#8217;s not FDA approved, you can&#8217;t use this for diagnosis, it&#8217;s more for peace of mind, for epidemiologic data. But if they need a definitive diagnosis, they have to get a nasal swab.&#8221;</p>]]></content:encoded>
