Instead of mass producing test kits and attempting to
determine who has and who doesn't have the virus,
here's a recommendation:

Let's try to determine how many people as a percentage
of the population have decided that the CDC
recommendations and requests don't apply to them
and feel they are entitled to ignore them.

Work on that percentage, get it way down and then
we may see a "flattening of the curve" and an
end in sight.

Then you have to let it go. I watched the spring breakers. They don't
care. We have convinced most of them if you are under 40, you will
shake this thing right off. I see more kids in the grocery store than
I ever have. It is the only place to go. They end up in the line with
a drink and some chips or something.
I am usually in and out pretty fast. I have been there 2 or 3 times a
week for 25 years so I know where everything is. If you are careful,
you really don't touch that much. It is times like this when a hook
would come in handy. Maybe one that oozed disinfectant. Use it to open
cooler cases.
The problem with a glove is your hand is safe but the glove is
contaminated so now you can't touch anything you want to keep with
that glove. This really gets tough if you are serious about it.

Around here the stores have trash cans very close. After leaving the store take
the glove off, pulling from the top, and throw the 'inside out' glove in the
trash. (Or the poop bag, whichever.) Not near as hard as you think.
