Problem is that those who test negative today could go out and become infected tomorrow. In order to confirm that people going back to work are free of infection .... they'd have to literally be tested every day. Another thing that he addressed is that many believe that once infected and recovered, a person is "immune" to becoming infected again. He said that's a reasonable assumption based on the history of other viral diseases, but it has not yet been 100% proven to be the case with covid-19. Everyone will need to be tested frequently, as I previously stated. But that won't happen the way Trump is ****ing over the possibility of a national response. How many can you test a day? 380 million? The approximate population of the country. 10 minutes a test, minimum. 380x10xx6 times 10 v 380x10xx7. Divide by 6 to get the hours. Divide by 24 to get the man days required. Which is about 33,000 man days required. Every day. Then we have a logistics problem. We better hope than immunity comes with having survived the infection. Now, how is President Biden going to accomplish his testing? How would YOU accomplish the testing? Maybe you need to take the bus in to DC and have lunch with the President and tell him how to do the job. We're way way behind on testing, Bilious. No one is suggesting that everyone be tested every day. How frequently are you suggesting? Every other day? Then you only need16.5 thousand man days. Once a week? Who is making 380,000,000 tests aweek?The math is too far above his head. Keep asking that question. His answer shouldbe interesting.--Freedom Isn't Free!


Fat Harry and Joe Biden are on the same wavelength. They both have
significant cognition deficiencies.
