It appears the KungFlu thing is falling apart.

This will kill the infection rate by eliminating all the false positives on people who have no symptoms. In our county the actual infection rate is at most half of what the reported rate is because of the false positives and the number of people counted multiple times because they are reported as a new case each time they get tested.

If you feel sick, go to the Dr and they will tell you if they think a test might be needed.

Would you go get an X-ray if you don't hurt anywhere to warrant getting one?

About time. The virus is so widespread that contact tracing makes no sense.

My brother-in-law tested positive for ‘rona. Fatigue, low grade fever and intestinal distress for 10 days. My sister lived with him, cared for him, drove his to the doctor and even slept in the same bed. She never got symptoms. If she was positive, she didn’t know it. She has been a teacher for 40 years. She must have had some immunity.

The media is fixated on “new cases” but have little or no interest in “deaths”. This is because so many positive tests are of asymptomatic people who never get sick. Ask why this preoccupation with statistics is absolutely a new response to what would otherwise be a bad flu season.
