Definitely not testing everyone here...far from it.

Here's one guy's opinion with supporting data as to why laundromats (on topic) and everything else should be opened back up:

It doesn’t matter what that guy says, most people are like sheep, you have to believe tptb when they say BOO.

I did laundry this evening,
They are still operating here,
There were few people than usual,
No problem getting washers or dryers
There signs asking customers to start the wash them go e wait in their car for 30 minutes,
Come back load the dryers and go back to the car
Then take the laundry home, folding tables were not to be used, some people folded over the carts
I brought mine back home to the RV,

Making the ACTUAL death rate MUCH lower. But that may not be what some would like!

Well, yes the fatality rate would be correspondingly lower if the number of people who would actually test positive were in fact tested. The numbers at this point are pretty speculative considering how many people there are, how many have been tested, what the testing accuracy is, and number of tests kits there are available. Many, many variables in the whole equation.

I have no idea what some would like, and don't intend to speculate.

Time to turn them inside out.

And now, back to OP's original topic . . .

Until they shut down the laundromat.
