    This is the first hopeful story we’ve gotten to write since March. It’s 7500 words about the huge, fraught plans to return the country to something like normalcy through massive amounts of cheap, fast testing.https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/08/how-to-test-every-american-for-covid-19-every-day/615217/ …

        For me, at least, this is *the* glimmer of hope for a return to normalcy. And it is also risky and unprecedented. The questions aren’t just technical — though there are a lot of those—but political and social.

        Can an effective, equitable testing system be built from these new parts and ideas? As a human being, I hope so. As a reporter, there’s still a ways to go.

        no. they won't matter so much if testing is frequent. couple times a week for everybody would be good. daily, better.

        Nespresso tests vs. instant coffee! Amazing. This is such a helpful way to think about it.

        👉“The lack of testing is a motivation problem.” 👉"This is a national emergency." We need Frequent, Fast, Cheap & Easy (#FFCE) testing to return to anything close to ~normal life. @OpenCovidScreen @michaelmina_lab Innovate & make it happen:http://xprize.org/covidtesting

        Kolstad and Johnson should look at using a wearable like the M1 (by @coalition_app) to optimise pooling http://M1.nodle.io  cc. @anthenor
