when do you get results and how did they conduct the test?

Well as I understand it, it is good enough-ish. The problem arises when/if we have to keep this up for 18 months, or forever.
If there is no vaccine, they will just end up with a rapid test so that the ambulance drivers can direct you to the coronavirus hospital. The nurses will be walking around in those astronaut costumes. Rich people will move towards changing the DNA of new humans so they can be born to survive coronavirus. Asymptomatic individuals will likely search out other asymptomatic to mate with. The chasm between rich and poor will grow exponentially. Population sizes will shrink massively.
I mean, itâs fucking creepy but if âEarthâ is trying to stop global warming⌠this seems like it could really help.

If the elite knows this, it explains why the Federal Government wonât share PPE.
I wonder if itâs a give it early keep it from getting bad, especially immune system damage- similar to HIV. Outcomes are much better early before full blown AIDS develops.
What if I gargle grain alcohol constantly?

Results came back in 10 minutes - negative. They prick your finger then pipette a drop of blood off your finger and drop it on the test. Looks like a little home pregnancy test.

You would be in Iran.
are they posting the results while it is running or not until the end? this was stanford university?
Pregnant women are going to doctorâs visits and hospitals so are prolly a little more likely than average population to be exposed.
Would be great if 13.8% of NYers had gotten it already so they would be 1/5 to 1/4 of the way to herd immunity but Iâm skeptical to say that based on one non-random sample.
The other problem is that 4 to 5 times as many need to die. Another 40-50,000 dead New Yorkers.
(No dis intended. Just the brutal math).
And if itâs really 5% immune now then make it another 200,000.
You arenât counting at home deaths
More like 52 to 65k
You were saying that people (of a unknown sample size) who initially tested negative now testing positive is like the end of civilisation.
This is a virus that most will survive, not a gigantic meteorite on a collision course.
Not sure why religious followers/church goers donât see what their real value is to these pastors.
There are plenty of churches who didnât think twice about shutting down, they just did it. If your church is fighting tooth and nail to risk your life in exchange for accessing your wallet, you have to reevaluate your worship rituals.
I feel like we still havenât really seen the disaster in waiting of India to unfold. Maybe they dodged a nuclear missile here but I would be surprised if they donât have a massive regional disaster or two.
No vaccine and reinfecting is bad but still nowhere near end of civilization bad as long as people with no or minor symptons continue to be with no or minor symptons. Also a vaccine might never be found but we will find ways to treat patients better and shorten hospital times and increase survival rates. Civilization survived without antibiotics and through several other pandemics so why would it fail this time around.

Because if this thing is officially killing 3-4% of infected, as measured by official numbers displayed by major media outlets, the worse it spreads and the more people hear about reinfection, or worse, reactivation, the more people will walk off the job and the more supply chains will break down.
My cousin delivered for Amazon, and I found out yesterday that she quit a couple weeks ago. Way til thatâs widespread.
