Where does the US rank in testing.

There's no excuse for this, but #COVID45 will try it anyways. He really doesn't want a lot of testing, which will show that the number of active cases is far higher now than what is currently being posted.

Correct. And he screwed up in ramping up testing.
 
It keeps you from getting the virus from someone that doesn't know they have it because.... wait for it Don..... THEY WEREN'T TESTED. Any other stupid questions?

That's one of the things I've always admired about you -- your kindness and attention to the less-advantaged and mentally-handicapped among us.
 
no it doesn't

why should I worry about a virus where 98% of people who get it are asymptomatic or have mild symptoms?

Do you get tested for the common cold?

have you gotten your chines virus test yet? You seem to be very frightened of it

Then don't worry about it. If you aren't worried, why are you here talking about it nonstop? The question was 'how does getting tested keep you from getting the virus. I explained it. You, as usual, didn't understand it. I'm not surprised.
 
Tests per 1 million population, we are not even in the top 30 countries. So that BS about us being 'the best at testing' is just that.

Discuss.

Why is testing so important? Do you actually believe that if you test negative today, you can't become infected tomorrow? What is this bullshit about getting tested? Do we insist people get tested for the flu virus? Why not? In the 2017-2018 season, 61,000 deaths were linked to the Influenza B virus. Did we shut the economy down? Why not?

Do you think we should test 330 million Americans? Why?

You know what would be more important? Knowing how many actually died of JUST this virus. Can this virus kill you on its own? Yes or no?
 

Are you sure? You've never heard about false negatives? How would you enforce this quarantine? What about travelers from abroad? Are you proposing testing every human on the plant on a daily basis?

Testing is better than no testing. So your entire post is just galactically stupid. Why have laws against murder when people still murder other people?
 
Ouch, I didn't bother to count, but we're WAY behind everyone else.

Stupid. The virus leads to fatal conditions. Cancer doesn't kill anyone either. Are you really this stupid or are you putting us on?

How does one contract the virus if someone is not showing any symptoms? How is a RESPIRATORY disease spread?
 
Didn't you claim that the USA isn't testing enough?

Why can't you answer any of the questions I asked?

Yes, I claimed they weren't testing enough. I don't answer stupid question. Well, I did make an exception in this case, but normally, no.
 
Yes, it does. DUH. If someone tests positive and is asymptomatic they can be quarantined before infecting anyone else. Would little pictures help you understand some of these points a little better? Or maybe I could explain it using 'Dick and Jane' characters. Maybe that would help?

So when you are tested, they immediately lock you up to ensure that you don't come in contact with anyone? :palm:

So they hadn't come into contact with anyone prior to getting tested? :palm:
