Ya except that wasn't Yahoo's title. The article was written by Bloomberg. Yahoo for the most part is just a repository where they pick articles to show. They do have a few of their own articles but by and large most are from other sources.
Thanks for the clarification. Then I will fix my statement by saying that the articles they link as news basically seem to have an agenda and are mostly opinion.
Did you have to change your underwear after you saw this today?
Minnesota seemed to be the last state to really have it start up. They're still close to the best per capita numbers but I wonder if it'll just be really late and they'll be similar to any other state that has at least one big metro.
No I was commando and crapped all over my couch. In the process of cleaning it now.
It does sound promising. Widespread testing, including a goal of testing asymptomatic people, is exactly what we need to move past this thing. And its a system that has already been tested in another state. Obviously some people are going to be skeptical this will work, but this is something that everyone should want to see succeed in our state. We can't make any informed decisions without information, and this should provide our state lots of information on this virus in our state if its successfull.
I still have an email account there so go there...there's a headline now about how a symptom of Covid is also skin reactions.
Depending on someone's immune system, a skin breakout last I knew is a pretty common reaction to many viruses, as it's part of the body's reaction.
I'd put it at maybe 1/10 articles on there are useful.
What's awful is in the middle of weird or bad news or imperative information, there's still all this B.S. about reality TV stars etc. Those are there because it's what people are interested in, because sadly that's what a large enough part of our society values.
I'd like to know how often tests can be done at workplaces to be efficient and allow for things to keep running if people need to quarantine. Twice/week?
Also was this sort of thing done in Italy? I've only seen that they've got general tests.
Yeah, I did a double take last night when I saw an article with that bad headline was written by Bloomberg.
The real question is why are we 6 weeks in and just now ramping up meat plants. So stupid.
Here's some more info about it.
I still have questions about why we are using a start-up company from Utah, what provisions are in place for privacy and what the cost is to Iowa taxpayers to use out-of-state private facilities for testing.
Only during the CCP Virus can I go 50 Miles per hour in a 35 in Ames, drive right past a police officer and not get pulled over.
