My conspiracy theory is still

Full scale antibody testing will never happen. Not because it couldn’t but because of what it would say. The states and the CDC know that the results would cripple the narrative and put them in the crosshairs.

    It needs to. This has been my position the whole time. Whether people agree with it or not isn't the point.

    The point is the antibody tests are how we put this virus in perspective to the nation. I actually am getting more comfortable that this is alot more prevalent than is being shown. I am using common sense with limited data to come to my conclusion, but many won't. Many are just scared and want to see proof and MSNBC's coverage isn't helping. Again, I'm not advocating for that position, just stating that the polls are showing that to be true. The way that can be disproved is by scientifically proving that 30 mil+ have had this and 70k died. Not much worse than the flu.

    I truly feel for small business/restaurant owners that are getting crushed by this. I do. But, you cant just say "the country is open". The consumers will decide that. If the majority of the nation isn't comfortable with sitting in a restaurant or salon (and polling shows that to be true) at this time then it doesnt matter what the governors say.

    Just my two cents, but that is the path that I see to get out of this.

    FWIW, I just had the antibody blood test and I was negative for the VID. So come on man, I can still die. All you fuckers need to stay home!

    Antibody tests in Europe will do the work if avoided here. Sweden don't give a fuck, and its what they are hoping for.

    Yeah, that’s the fucking point. Your governmental heroes are fining people for trying to let the consumer decide because Daddy Governor says they can’t let the consumer decide. How noble of you to “feel” for people losing their life’s work for what looks to be a Nothing Burger illness unless you’re old or weak. Meanwhile, this is house arrest of healthy people and not a “quarantine” at all.

    The people crying for more tests have the maff skills of the dazzler.

    More tests are going to drive up the denominator and drive down the mortality rate.

    So, yeah. More tests I guess. If they just want to empirically prove out what a debacle this false alarm has been.

    Asking for things that you don’t actually want and then blaming the lack of for inaction/results is a classic stall tactic.
