That's a sneaky way to get out of a fundraiser.

Dewine has Covid.

Now he's negative. Do you think we can get f'ing tests to work correctly?

Well, based on the types of tests used there aren’t a whole lot of false positives, but there are a lot of false negatives. I would err to the side that the PCR test is a false negative more than the antigen test is a false positive.

Without any questions a total f**ing clown show.

You either have it or you don't?

Joseph Heller would approve:

“I don’t think any of us are in a position to balk the governor,” one director said.

As Gov. Ron DeSantis pushed this summer for schools to reopen, state leaders told school boards they would need Health Department approval if they wanted to keep classrooms closed.

Then they instructed health directors not to give it.

How do we know he’s negative? He’s had one positive and one negative. Supposedly the false negative is more prominent than a false positive. So odds are still that he’s positive. Do we go best 2 of 3? Maybe we need a 5 or 7 game series? Are we finally realizing the fact that the PCR tests are garbage?

Clown show is right.

It makes no sense to do a PCR test after he tested positive by antigen. It’s almost like they knew there was a good chance it would be negative so they could get a presser out that he’s now negative. I would bet he’s getting antibody tested as well.

An argument for a 6 week lock down to get to a level where full scale contact tracing is possible.

Careful with the L word ‘round here...

Golden opportunity missed with the first lockdown but there are too many that didn’t believe this to be a serious issue. Still possibly the case just by reading through this thread.
