Not a complaint. It happens a lot, and seems to be due to some limitation of the forum (search probably). Posting a link as I did allows comments to be focused on a single thread, which can be useful as news develops.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

Why are people showing symptoms but the people who just came from Africa are not?
