Singapore deploys antibody testing for COVID-19

BY STEVE USDIN, WASHINGTON EDITOR | FEB 25, 2020 | 4:32 PM EST The Singapore Ministry of Health has used an antibody test developed by the Duke-NUS Medical School to determine the source of a COVID-19 cluster. The ministry reported that it is the first use anywhere of antibody-based testing for exposure to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.

The antibody test is important because it can be used to identify individuals who have been exposed to the virus and are asymptomatic or have recovered from the disease.

Antibody tests can be used, as in the Singapore case, to trace and isolate disease clusters.

Antibody tests could be used more broadly to determine how and where SARS-CoV-2 is spreading in communities.

It’s the same old same old.

If you postulate that having a few weeks of essentials set aside ‘just in case’ it’s OMG you’re PANICKING!!!!!!

NO.

Panic is when your city is put under quarantine for 3 weeks. Or you have a nasty ice storm and no power for 3 weeks. Or you have a hurricane hit nearby. Panic is when you find out after one of those things happen you have a sum total of a half a bottle of expired mustard and a 6pk of skunky beer in your fridge...

Then you can panic.

Prepping prevents panic!
