We could have it under tight control by the end of the year. We have the technology, just lack the leadership and will. https://twitter.com/notdred/status/1306385027194904576

Here’s how you do it...print billions of cheap paper antigen tests. Ship them out so that everyone in a public facing job, every school kid, every college student, every hospital worker and nursing home resident and staff gets tested 2-3 times a week.

You test before you see a movie, test before you board a plane. Positives aren’t counted unless confirmed by a second test.

We could squash the epidemic and lead nearly normal lives until a vaccine comes out.

It’s already starting...at the UT football game last weekend, students could get free tickets but they had to test negative for a quick salvia antigen test to get them.

All of this would be cheaper than a second stimulus btw

Sure there will be people who don’t want to do it but once you test the healthcare workers and schools and grocery store workers and amazon drivers...don’t let perfect be the enemy of good my friends

Some very basic major issues...will we miss out on reporting if we have so many tests? Can make the positive or negative finding into a QR code that has to be reported into an app, and definitely have infrastructure to follow up widespread positive screening tests with 2nd tests.

I’m not kidding when I say we have the tech but lack the will and leadership.
