Supposedly, we have a bipartisan ‘team’, in Congress, pushing for mass testing, as a way to open up the economy....

I thought the Fauch said that testing wouldn’t help, as you can test negative one day, but become positive the next.

Is this a DAILY testing requirement??

It would have to be daily in order to provide any sort of useful information, because the test result is just a snapshot of that precise moment.

I can’t get the images from that Ecuador video of my head. That really was apocalyptic looking. Bodies washing up in the surf. That is the stuff of true nightmares. I don’t think testing is going to save us if this beast is truly capable of that.
