Hivemind: A relative got a coronovirus test at work, having no symptoms...

Last edited Mon Mar 23, 2020, 09:08 PM - Edit history (2)

and there is something that seems to be odd about this - especially since tests are in short supply from all I've heard.

Edited to add: I got hold of an investigative reporter, and they will take it from there.

We can't get tests but a religious talk radio show gets 19.

Somebody needs jail time, for this!

The more I think on it, he has a couple of hundred employees. Why only 19?

Sounds a bit fishy.

He offers some reasonable personal finance advice (such as, don't borrow money), but he is also a trickle down, tithe first, conservative sort.

Last thing (as I pulled into my drive) I heard him say is that maybe this virus will expand home schooling, once people get used to the idea of kids at home all day.
