The man gets a lot of flack, but he usually had the opinion reflecting the best science at the time. People don't seem to understand that this is a new virus that is acting in a very unique way. We've never really seen a virus like this that causes both pulmonary and vascular issues in such a severe way. It's all new science. The unexpected will continue to pop up.
Maybe that should tell you something about the “best science ay the time.” Which is starting to mean less and less
Incorrect. It gets better day by day. It takes time to get the best evidence and elucidate the best methods. I get that it's frustrating for the general public that the experts don't get it right the first time. But there is a lot about this bug that is new. No amount of expertise could have prepared them for it. It's like being put in a maze and criticizing the person stuck in it for not choosing the correct path perfectly the first time.
Good lord lol. Please don’t shoot at em sir. You have a family to support and hopefully some home WVU football games to attend in the Fall.
That'll show em.
Of course, they're only trying to do their job in handling a worldwide pandemic, but screw that, it's your property, and you shouldn't have to put up with that ****.
has there ever been a better argument for "the wall"? I bet liberals and leftist will line up now to help secure our border.....yep
This really doesn't have much to do with a wall or limiting immigration. Most people that come into the US do so for purposes of legitimate trade and tourism. An actual hard line restriction on all international travel would be devastating to the economy.
Well the “legitimate” travel has been addressed with travel bans. Thankfully we are addressing the”illegitimate” travel with the wall. If thousands of infected immigrants were crossing out southern border it would be a disaster. I am sure you are happy people are not entering our country unfettered with possible CV19 without a barrier to allow us to test them first.
I don't know which morons to which you're referring, because quite frankly, there's a bunch out there on "both" sides, but your response made me think of this...
Aaaaaaaand the name calling begins. Fishing for tuna with a trout hook....and catching em all.
Yea...the wall. Like the ones in NYC where rich liberals put up to keep the great unwashed out. Except they call them doormen. Nancy Pelosi actually put up a real wall cause she doesn’t live in a high rise bldg. but tells us regular people it is a bad thing....weird
Or Pink Floyd’s signature album....
The original message was about potential bias in the positive test counts, obviously you can't comprehend that. Thus your equally a douche.
And don’t forget about the wall that the far left nuts in the CHOP in Seattle put up. Lol!
Speaking of The Wall, has anyone ever listened to Dark Side of the Moon while watching The Wizard of Oz? Pretty crazy stuff.
Had beers last night with the guy in charge of medical logistics for Novant. He just got a 500,000 square foot warehouse to hold excess PPE.
He's gone from 1.5 million square feet of warehouse space pre Covid to 2.5 million.
Yeah, they are stocking up.
Has nothing to do with what I originally posted. A wall is stupid. The fact leftists can afford them and right wing nuts need guns is a whole other issue.
I bet if a great angry horde of illegal, COVID riddled, right wing Trumpers were crossing our southern border by the millions you would be for a wall....lol

That's just the real time tests. Those were never considered to be ery accurate. I knew some folks who were doing those weekly required by their work. If anyone popped positive, they were sent for a lab test then home pending those results.
I never heard the 97% accuracy stat for the rapid test. Maybe I missed that when they came out. I heard studies shortly after they came out that put the accuracy potentially as low as 55%-ish. Of folks who used them, I had not heard of an example where a positive rapid test was not verified by the more standard lab test. I'm not saying that my experience represents a large sample size.But the CDC and the FDA said they were accurate.
