COVID-19: Chapter 5 - BACK TO SCHOOL

Unless there’s a massive increase in testing and ability to analyze them quickly, I think it will be hard to get above 60k new cases per day and we’re maybe near the max now.

Yesterday, Andy Slavitt claimed tests were no good after 7 days. My sister previously told me it was 9 days. I guarantee you there are a lot of places with large testing in the country that aren’t not getting around to analyzing tests until right around 7 days. The second largest processor in the country said it had hit a ‘wall’ three weeks ago (they were processing the tests from NY, NJ, and one other early hard hit state but I can’t remember which one), so if the 7 day thing is true there are a lot of wasted tests out there just being called ‘negative’. Sigh.
