Yes, testing is extremely valuable for a variety of reasons. As cuse, (I believe it was him), mentioned, it’s extremely valuable to know if you’ve already had it since you can then help out wherever it’s needed. (I know this would be testing for the antibodies and not the virus itself.) If people can safely return to work, help other people, etc. it will help get through this thing so much faster and with fewer negative impacts.

That tweet (and mindset) is disgraceful. I also saw a tweet showing a crowded airport full of college kids going home and couldn’t help but be saddened at the sight of a few older people sprinkled in the shot and wondering if they were going to later die because of it

The tobacco/alcohol exceptions struck me as weird too.

But then I remembered that I live in the country that consumes the most beer per capita in the world and where 40% of the male population smokes.
