    So the answer is a nutshell is NO....

    So how can any number that they put out about the virus be accurate, if not all have been tested or can be tested...

    Everyone needs to be tested....

    The worst case scenario has now hit Alabama.. The virus has hit the rural areas... These clinics are not staffed or equipped to handle this virus and that means a lot of people will die...

    I was just listening to a story on NPR that some people are opposing the directive from the National Center for Health Statistics to categorize deaths from pneumonia as likely COVID 19 deaths. The idea behind this directive is that COVID 19 deaths might be severely under counted because of lack of testing both living and postmortem. Some are opposing this because they feel that this isn't accurate but also that there are political reasons behind it. More COVID 19 deaths would allow states to get more federal resources and more deaths would be used to embarrass Trump.

    Wisconsin was also one of the states where the Republican legislature greatly restricted the powers of the incoming Democratic Governor.

    Are you sure? Word on the street is that Alabama is not California or New York.

    WI election today is straight anti-democracy. 5 out of 180 polling sites open in Milwaukee. Yea, let's pack them up and line them up. This is the stuff you don't even see in China and Russia.

    Why do people even vote in this situation? I don't even go to work or shopping.

    Couldn't they ask for consent to take blood/cell samples of the departed?

    Our approach and will to collect data is hideously outdated.
