    Agreed. Darth, the self-avowed health expert who knows very little about medicine, continues to push a false meme about "90% false positives". He's never provided proof this is true. All he has is a link stating that some people who are infected may not need isolation or contact tracing.

    What the link he posted doesn't say is whether or not a person should be regularly tested in case the infected person becomes contagious.

    What makes it true [a fact, actually] is that PCR tests are being over cycled, in at least some instances, to yield positives on people who aren’t in any way infectious. At a rate of up to 90% of the time.

    This was reported in the NYT—of all places, and then it was dropped like a hot potato.

    What that means is when you hear ‘36,000 COVID cases on college campuses’—it’s hard to know what that even means since at significant fraction of the students *may or may not be* infectious unless you know how many times their tests have been cycled.

    Your objection about ‘further testing’ is lame. Give them more tests that may or may not indicate the ability to transmit the virus? Good way to make the test manufacturers happy.

    You go to war with the weapons you have, not the weapons you wish you had.

    Ideally, everyone would have a supply of instant at-home tests which indicate if a person is contagious.

    We don't have that, so we are using what we do have because it is better than nothing.

    Be careful what you wish for lol:

    Those are less sensitive so if they get used on a broad scale the case numbers will drop and some states may feel pressured to ‘open too early’.

    Everybody wants this pandemic gone.

    Everybody wants to have the economy back.

    Here's the problem:

    As long as the pandemic is still raging, we can't have the economy back.

    Attempting to deny it away, wish it away, insult it away, pretend it away, whatever; None of that is going to work.

    We have to take logical science based steps to properly and effectively deal with the pandemic before we can have the full economy back.

    There are no shortcuts. We need a united approach.

    The best way for us to deal with the pandemic at this point is to

    VOTE BIDEN.

    You realize O’Biden’s own guy claimed ‘they got lucky’ with H1N1, right lol?

    It’s partisan wishful thinking to think ANY president would have made a significant difference in this.

    Because...the China virus was already sufficiently prevalent in our population by the time ANYONE could have altered the outcome in any significant way.

    Once here, the virus was gonna virus until it’s done virusing.

    Biden will just have us doing the lockdown-open-spike-lockdown again, dance. DeSantis showed us how to deal with it.

    That amounts to giving up.

    No. I refuse.

    Giving up is not an option.

    I choose to fight.

    America wants to fight.

    It's the humans against the bug.

    I am protecting you by wearing a mask, keeping distance.

    I am depending on you to protect me.

    We all protect each other.

    I've got your back.

    You need to buck up and get with the program.

    Everyone does.

    It is unAmerican to blow off the CDC guidelines.

    It is patriotic to wear a mask.

    Are you an American?

    Do you love your country?

    Do you want to do your civic duty?

    Do you want to be a part of American greatness?

    Wear a mask.

    Protect your neighbors. They are protecting you.

    Show that you love your country.

    Be a part of the solution.

    Help get rid of the pandemic so we can have our economy back.

    It's not going away.

    Another day, another thousand dead Americans.

    Bad leadership.
