Not enough people to test?
As noted above, they are actively discouraging testing when mere days before some places were making testing mandatory with antibody testing

Maybe it's to weed out all the "new cases" that really are old cases only getting tested now.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Are we going to have to delve into conspiracy theories now to explain the discouragement of testing?

By not testing people who believe they had it months ago, instead only testing them for antibodies.

Chai care doesn't have a monopoly here you can go to others, there are so many urgent cares around that would be more then happy to poke you and your kids, just make sure they use FDA approved tests

2239. Only 2 positives. Seems to dip on the weekends. Rolling average is the way to go.

I get why they don't want unnecessary positives, but it isn't testing the only way to really get a handle on this?

Unnecesaary positives will only make it harder to discern a rise in new cases. At this point if they limit tests to people who actively have symptoms or have been exposed to people with symptoms we'll find the new cases. Because we have the capacity, we can immediately increase testing as soon as there is reason to.

Isn't the whole point to catch asymptomatic cases before they start spreading it, since the most infectious time is prior to onset of symptoms?

Ok. I get that. However my doctor will only allow us to start interacting with married kids, etc if everyone tests negative.

Mass randomized testing is the only way to catch it before there is some serious spread, as you will need to wait for the test of a symptomatic patient showing up positive before we catch it, while there could have been an week or two after incubation plus asymptomatic people spreading it around. Especially without adequate contact tracing, as is the case for most of the US.

An easy place to start mass testing would be anybody showing up to check for antibodies. Mandate a COVID swab test as well and you’ll have people constantly being checked for COVID. Bonus- it’ll only be people who haven’t been proven to have antibodies yet! For example, this guy should have tested

Sewage sampling accomplishes this perfectly.

Just test everyone who asks. If COVID is really declining to nothing in Lakewood then there won’t be that many older cases asking to get tested, that will be testing positive. And whoever does ask, will get tested now and be done with for good. And we won’t risk a 2nd wave just to keep the numbers down.

Don’t test don’t tell brought on the first wave, and will be the cause of a potential 2nd wave.
