Exasperating to read hot takes on how testing ought to be done or why it& #39;s apparently bad by people who quite clearly don& #39;t know first thing about how screening works. Maybe don& #39;t tell medical scientists how to do their job if you don& #39;t know logistical challenges involved. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤦🏻‍♂️" title="Man facepalming (light skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Man facepalming (light skin tone)">

...I honestly don& #39;t know how @Care2much18 has patience to keep explaining this to folks. My new acid test: if the person opining can& #39;t give a working definition of sensitivity, specificity, & how they relate to prevalence, their confidence outstrips their understanding https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤷‍♂️" title="Man shrugging" aria-label="Emoji: Man shrugging">

Final point - don& #39;t try to spin it as you being pro medical scientists but against government handling. Government is actually doing precisely what scientists & doctors are advising. As they should. This is an unprecedented challenge & hot takes not helpful.
