Previously I would have agreed. After this year, however, I am now convinced that about 60% of Americans are crazies. If he triggered them all it would be a scene from World War Z.
Positivity rate is good for assessing the adequacy of your testing program, period. Useless for talking about how under control the epidemic is or is not. It is useful for these ghouls to know with better accuracy just how many people they are killing, though. So I guess there is that.
They finally found a doctor who will back Il Douche.
Fuuuuuck this dude with an orcano!
They love pointing at the positivity rate until it says something they donât like. Then itâs time for an investigation, not time to take additional precautions.
âAn investigationâ along the lines of âhow did this information get out? Find and close the leak!â That would be Abbottâs modus operandi.
You knows things are really bad when even the guy who played Van Wilder wants you to stop partying
Iâm still waiting for that âdonât kill somebody elseâ message to stop dominating the news, though. When will we see more messages telling teens not to kill (or permanently injure) themselves? Theyâve made it clear thatâs their main/only concern.
Not too surprised. On many of the bases Iâve been to I dont see a lot of mask usage. Also there is a high proportion of COVID-deniers within the uniformed services.
Additionally the military has had a fairly aggressive testing program so they are finding a lot of cases.
For some reason, I thought we had more active military personnel. A quick search showed 1.3 million, plus 800,000 reserve. Those figures are before recent cuts made by 45.
Like how it permanently degrades circulatory function in the genitals?
Some rare good news:
A key component of SalivaDirect, they note, is that the method has been validated with reagents and instruments from multiple vendors. This flexibility enables continued testing if some vendors encounter supply chain issues, as experienced early in the pandemic.
We simplified the test so that it only costs a couple of dollars for reagents, and we expect that labs will only charge about $10 per sample.
Grubaugh and Wyllie said that they are not seeking to commercialize the method.
Good for them!
Was just talking about low number of reported cases in the islands with my SIL (who is from the Caribbean) - WTH!
