When you have the ability to test and contact trace, you can ascertain COVID problem areas or hot spots. For instance: restaurants, bars, schools, and churches. In WA, +70 cases were linked to the capital protest.https://twitter.com/DrEricDing/status/1259003903393312769 …

Need to program and launch my AR "heatmap" / exercise program / gowashyourhands reminder. Wish I had a team!

Heat maps aren't optimal. Fever is only 1 symptom. We need testing and masks.

You're absolutely right, I, err, meant "heat map" in the data presentation sense, but I see how that can be confusing.

The idea is to use testing and modelling *to help direct further testing and modelling* We can use data from social networks (anonymised) and other sources to synthesise a current risk map, and also a sort of, I'm not sure what to call it, risk squared map...

Put the entire US inside it. Now. We need to provide access to tests for symptomatic people. I tried 5x's to get tested. My friend had a fever for 54 days. Neither of us were able to access tests.

I understand this, this is why I fled on Jan 27th. It is possible there are some places that are ok, but honestly I have no idea. My network on FB (we called ourselves the "Earth Defence Fund") has some success in acquiring and distributing tests. Let me have them reach out.

There really isn't a point. Either we have it or we don't, but looking for hotspots is futile sheen your entire country is a hotspot and refusal to test is your strategy.

To be clear, I have advocated for (and we eventually have done, who knows what the causality is here) a closed border with the USA. We aren't even allowing travel from province to province. My heart remains in the US, and I ache for it. I would travel there to fight if I could!
