people act as though the test is the cure.
the test is only good for the moment you took it you could get infected before you get the results it is said that people can carry and be infectious and not know they have it.
so unless you have been in total isolation since the test you may not know you have been exposed after you took the test
Well yeah, as I mentioned above the antibody test in Germany shows that for every person who get treated for WuFlu there are 7 that had it and don't know it, for the most part. Thus they may have been walking around with active infections. Again like almost everything else this falls into the 'we don't know' group. We don't know if folks with silent or minimal infections are infectious. They haven't been tested. The tests have only been given to people with active symptoms.
No I have a question for you folks in the super cautious group. Why would you prevent people from working in your garden around your house and away from others. Why would you stop someone from sitting in his own beach front yard away from other people? Why would you stop people from making repairs and/or improvements on their own house?
It seems that since you are imposing home detention on the population that you would be OK with those people finding productive uses for their time. Why not? But folks are being threatened with arrest and fines if they do the above.
