I’m trying to understand your point. I truly am. From what I understand, the 100% positive rate is not due to a high false positive rate, it‘s due to the same labs not reporting their negative tests because those weren’t required. So it’s not skewing the number of positive cases, it‘s skewing the percentage of positive cases based on all tests. And this is in Florida, not nationwide (or worldwide for that matter).

So, again, what exactly is your point? That the percentage of people testing positive out of all tests given is skewed in Florida due to negative tests not being reported? Ok, so? The number of people contracting COVID-19 is still going up exponentially. Nowhere in any of the articles about the Florida tests does it state that the positive tests weren’t actually postiive.

He doesn’t know. The freaks grab at these things, because that’s what they’re told.

These trumpies are convinced this virus was engineered and aimed directly at the USA in attempt to crucify their Jesus . . . or it's all a hoax . . . or it is a weapon developed to force America into a socialism . . . or enslave us by first stripping us of all our liberties . . . or, whatever trump tweets or retweets next.

No, dipshit, the hoax is your libtard media making it as scary as possible in hopes of destroying the economy. That way you can blame everything on Trump, which you have, and try to get one of your fucking morons elected since they sure as shit couldn't get elected on merit.

Ummmmm.....okay?? I’m talking about an unprecedented massive uptick in people dying from respiratory failure. So, if not COVID-19 did people suddenly take up smoking en masse while simultaneously insulating their homes with abestos??

My family may travel to Europe, so I was reviewing one small eastern European country's travel rules. Not only are there very strict protocols about tests and/or quarantine for travelers, but if you are driving through the country you must stick to, specific routes, including roads, permitted gas stations, etc.
That's how you beat the virus. Not by minimizing and denying it.
This will definitely cost Trump the presidency.

Really? What ignorance? Listening to you morons laugh at Trump for 6 months and then roll on the floor in liberal tears when he won? When have you losers ever NOT been ignorant? How many times have you removed Trump from office in the last 4 years?

My middle son just had to get tested (today). His part-time summer job is unloading/loading trucks for a major package delivery corporation. The employees wear masks when they are in common areas, but while unloading/loading the semis it’s basically impossible. Over 100 degree heat and the pace is ridiculous...like doing non-stop squats and bench press for 5 hours (one 10 minute break). But they only allow one person per semi which keeps people isolated. Still, two people tested positive and he started having symptoms about 36 hours ago. He is young (early 20’s) so I’m sure he’ll be ok, but I’m so grateful he has taken this virus seriously from the beginning. Not because he is worried for himself, but he doesn’t want to infect anyone else. He has been acting as if he is positive the whole time he’s had this job—not hanging out with friends, staying in his room when home (loves playing online games anyway), wearing a mask when he goes out, etc. He figured his risk is high working with so many packages. I’m so glad he took that tactic.

We bought two HEPA air filters to hopefully absorb any airborne virus in the house (some studies say they work great, some are mixed...but what the h*ll). It‘s frustrating as hell how out of control this virus has gotten in the US because it didn’t have to be this way. If the US had followed stricter guidelines, like those you just mentioned, and MUCH earlier on we’d be in far better shape.

I put a lot of information in my post because so many questions remain about this virus, especially how contagious is it? My son, if positive, most likely got it at his job. They social distance but don’t wear masks (as I described). So was it handling the packages? Who knows.

If my son‘s test is positive, I think people will be interested in whether or not the rest of the family in our household get sick, or don’t get sick. It would be useful to know what precautions we took and how effectIve or ineffective they were. If reading is too hard for you, then skip over any post longer than 10 words.
