Even if it’s the truth, which I agree with you, it’s not. Asymptomatic means there’s a lot of people out there that Covid doesn’t affect at all which would bring the mortality percentage rate even lower.

So, if you do not have symptoms you can not get tested. But, if you are poor and want free food, get in line and we will give you food and make you take a test (even if you don't have symptoms)

It's amazing that the Louisiana government has been corrupt and incompetent since before my parents were even born, but somehow i'm supposed to believe that just because a virus showed up they all suddenly gained composure, ethics and competence.

Especially when you consider the accuracy of the tests.

These tests are bullshite. I work with a guy that was tested here in la. Came out negative. Drove four hours to Florida. Took another test. That one came out positive. It’s all bullshite.

Almost 1.3 million people have been tested in Louisiana. Almost a third of the state. He’s basically saying that nearly all of them have had covid-like symptoms since “there are practically no asymptomatic people being tested.” It doesn’t get any more blatant than that.

The positivity percentage has been dropping for the past few days. Someone in the media needs to point this out. The issue isn’t the number of positives it’s the percentage.

The percentage can be manipulated too. It was so high early on because we were only saving tests for old people who may need to be hospitalized. Then we started testing everyone who had a sniffle and it dropped hard. Reopening was always going to cause an increase in cases. That was inevitable. But people still freak out as if it means we should cower back in our homes again.

Totally a lie.

My in-laws (in their 60s, no pics), got tested because someone at one of their jobs was positive. They both came back positive, neither had symptoms and never felt ill during their quarantine.

Also nice downvote you have there from the china bot.

The more you test, the more cases you will get. Simple
