How do we proceed from here?

Every time someone tests positive do we shut down again?

If I takes a test and I test negative once I make contact with one person do I have to be tested again?

False negatives? False positives? How accurate are the tests?

If we listen to the 'experts' and 'trust science' can we ever reopen American business?

I thought they drank MGD on the job and not Corona?

They should test for Muslims.

The latest news I've heard is that if you've been infected by COVID you will test positive for the antibodies, and maybe even COVID itself, but you won't get sick and you won't be contagious.

Dang it, that didn’t take long.

Sounds like any big plant that wants to reopen, should have all of it’s employees tested prior to reopening.

Tyson had to shut another major plant in Texas today.

I wonder if Ford could use the quick test the White Houses uses. I think it takes 15mins for results.

Not sure how feasible that would be, they get tested before entering the plant.

Wonder how many people tested positive. Not sure if they would shut down for 2 to 3 people out of a 100.

Under these guidelines, the country will collapse, Trump won’t be re-elected, and people will just whine about the left.

“The Chicago plant was back in operation by Wednesday morning and the Dearborn one was expected to resume production by Wednesday night.”

I cant be the only one that bothered reading to the end.

A year from now we're going to look back in embarrassment at the overreaction to this thing and how afraid everyone was made to feel.

A week ago the death rate here in Los Angeles County was around 1,600, in a county of 10 mill. That's about 1/1000th of 1%. And 40% of those were in nursing homes.

For that Mayor Dumbass Garcetti is trying to stretch out lockdown through July 4 and still preaches that he's relying on "science and data."

There’s going to be some bumps on the road.

Let’s proceed.

This is NOT the effing Bubonic plague!!! Can we just use some common sense here. If you’re sick, go home. Make an appointment with your doctor, get a prescription for HCQ and pick up some zinc. What happens when someone gets strep throat? Do they shut down a whole plant when someone gets strep or tests positive for TB, which is much more dangerous. We even allow illegal aliens to live and work among us, no problem! Who knows what kind of diseases they carry?

Yup. These incidents remind me of the kid who is afraid of the dark and hides under the covers.

From now on, whatever ailment you have, its COVID 19.

There's no small number of lawyers who are looking for business because everyone has been in a lockdown for the last two months. Tell the business what your plan is to keep the lawyers at bay and you've found the solution.

why did they reopen if they were going to shutdown for a few covid19 positives? that would be expected if you mass test, the might even be false positives.

would they shutdown for a positive roto-virus, mersa or influenza? makes no sense. for a big outbreak of mysterious origin, maybe.
