There is no realistic way to ramp up testing enough to test our way out. And there are no game-changing meds in trials or we would know by now, as the leaks would be guaranteed.

I bet you can order a test kit from Bio-Rad and have it delivered next day air.

+ the assumption that the tests would be as accurate as the most accurate as diagnostic test ever created, which has no standing.

People who have no clinical laboratory training are completely clueless. It’s a lack of exposure to the profession. How the lab is portrayed on television is part of the problem. Most of the time it’s ignored. FFS, Klinger did crossmatches on MASH. smh

I don’t think it’s a lack of resource issue. It’s a public health policy decision to only test people who are experiencing symptoms.

A complement is diagnostic-grade wearables. The UCSF/Oura and Scripps/Fitbit studies are ones to watch. If they predict COVID-19, then you can do at-home continuous diagnosis from wearable data. Separately, at-home test kits should also be approved. See: https://twitter.com/search?q=from%3Abalajis%20oura&src=typed_query&f=live …

I wear a oura ring and a whoop. Last year both were able to predict a couple of days right before I had the flu. Most were the notable increase in HR, temp, and decreased HRV. Glad to see the studies.

If testing is voluntary, and most people show no symptoms and do not get tested, do we have a shortage? I am not aware of a shortage in my area.
