These articles are so frustrating—this article doesn’t even contain the “many experts believe this is a result of issues with test sensitivity, not a distinct second instance of the disease” caveat these usually have, and like most, it doesn’t say if re-positives have symptoms https://twitter.com/npr/status/1254655774242021379

Just absolutely useless on an informational level, and needlessly alarming for people who don’t spend 16 hours a day reading about this stuff and talking with people who understand the technical issues at play

We’re at a stage in this where there’s not a *ton* of new information coming out that can be transformed into quick, short articles to keep up with the pace at which some places need to write about it, so you get this: no new info, no context, but scary.
