As reported by Page Six, Arie shared on Friday that he was in line for a rapid test to see if he was now negative.
He captioned a selfie from the testing site, "Still waiting .... "Rapid tests are really hard to come by here (everyone is out of them). Had to go to an independent lab that charges $125. They do 300 tests a day and run through them before lunch."
Page Six reported, the former 'Bachelor,' who starred on the show's 22nd season, has not yet given an update on those results.
