I wonder what the manufacturing conditions are when thats the transport/ storage requirements.

There are something like 3 companies in the US that make dry ice and it can't really be stockpiled. Wonder if they have any capacity that can be increased. Any suspicious stock movement just before the Pfizer annonucement?

The brain tickle variety?

Are tests readily available so you can just get one on a lark, or do you need to have potential exposure/ symptoms to get one?

First was a nasal swab, but just around the inside of the nostrils, not deep. Quick and painless...a pleasant surprise. The second one was filling a vial with about a tablespoon of saliva. Also nbd.

These were free community testing events. No exposure/symptoms required to test. Results took three days for the first and one day for the second.

Yeah, just doing my part to lower the positivity rate.










Also living with someone who tested positive.

I have heard of a handful of people around here claim they are getting tested regularly to "do their part to drive the community positivity rate down."

K reid, that was satire. I took my first test last weekend due to potential, later confirmed, exposure.

Got a slight sunburn today. Pretty sure my current Vitamin D levels will keep the Rona away for at least a few days.

Ever thought of crossing the border to the south to be safe with the rest of us?

I have heard of a handful of people around here claim they are getting tested regularly to "do their part to drive the community positivity rate down."

My family is tested once a month due to our kids being at an in-person private elementary school right now. It’s expensive (about $300/month) but a requirement for them to be there as kids can be asymptotic
