@datlas We have free testing for everyone, symptoms or not, in my city but what's the point? My neighbors tested negative but could be positive next week. It just seems like a waste of resources to test everyone regardless of symptoms or exposure.
Agree. Testing a sample of the population to monitor disease activity is important from a public health perspective. But of minimal or no benefit to the individual. If a medical test does not change how you are treated (like this one) it’s value to YOU is dubious.
