      all the dumbies in his replies made me realize that "only one disease's treatment is free" means a patient's bill for an extended hospital stay due to pneumonia can go from free to bankrupting if their test comes back negative. https://twitter.com/MaxTemkin/status/1244813108071325697 …

      The reasonable thing to do would be confirm the diagnosis prior to a PCR test. Are there other viral pneumonias going around?

      hah i can't even tell sarcasm no more, are you askin me if there's currently any influenzas or ILIs going around? Because yes always. A bad flu case can present just like it, then they're waiting in a hospital bed for the test results to see if the stay is free or not.

      idk if i'd say it "pneumonia going around" as pneumonia's an umbrella of symptoms more than a category of pathogen. It's a stage in a whole lot of stuff, including non-infectious diseases like leukemia

      I just mean in the middle of the spike, somebody emerges coughing from the wall of bodies with bits of lung in their lung, do you wait for the swab to come back before starting HCQ? Nah just take an educated guess.

      Even under normal circumstances there's a lot of overlapping and extremely billable interventions for influenza/coronavirus that ought to be started before confirming it's one or the other. Plus the exam and tests will be billed, price depending on results. It's a vile approach.

      Oh for sure. Mainly just brainstorming ways to get around it if they went through with that scheme (seems unlikely, really, are we gonna pick through the causation to separate out the bill for opportunistic infection or complications of diabetes)
