We starting testing for our entire county. First responders are being tested currently, with the general public starting next week. It is voluntary, but available to all residents of the county. I am hearing that this will be rolled out nationally soon.

“After SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes the coronavirus disease, 2019 (COVID-19), infects a person, that person’s immune system will produce antibodies against the virus to fight the infection. A COVID-19 antibody test is able to detect the antibodies made by the body against the SARS-CoV-2 virus from a small sample of blood to diagnosis whether a person has (or previously had) COVID-19. The United Biomedical, Inc. (UBI) Group of Companies (UBI Group) has developed a COVID-19 antibody test that is called the UBI[emoji2400] SARS-CoV-2 ELISA.
Validation tests conducted in China, Taiwan and California have demonstrated that the UBI[emoji2400]SARS-CoV-2 ELISA is highly sensitive, specific, and accurate. 100% of the blood samples collected post seroconversion of infection from patients who tested positive to COVID-19 by other methods were found to be positive using the UBI[emoji2400] SARS-CoV-2 ELISA. We have also tested over 900 blood samples that were collected before the present COVID-19 outbreak and none of these samples tested positive using our test, which means that our test has not produced even one false positive result. These samples included blood samples from patients who have previously tested positive for other human coronaviruses (e.g., NL63 or HKU-1) as well as other infectious diseases (e.g., HIV, HCV, and HBV).”
CA just shut down the state.

Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.
I'm wondering how much traction Bernie's healthcare perspective will receive in the wake of this event. It's certainly not new information, and nobody should be shocked by what's been reality every day of our lives, but it's hard to escape being hit in the face by the "privilege" daily and some are finding it a wake up call.
I just hope Jay Z and Beyonce won't be inconvenienced.
There's nothing civil about this war.
Depends if he lives through this.
I’m only fractionally joking, considering his age and recent heart attack; so many of our key political leaders are just so old. Biden? Trump has a clean bill of health, but he’s still in the high risk zone. And don’t even get me started on RBG—she really needs to avoid this virus to keep her spot on the bench. What happens if the top dem contenders end up on ventilators? Not probable, but stranger things have happened. It’ll be interesting to watch all this unfold.
