[Vhfcn-l] COVID-19 Opinion

[Jerry Feldman]

One big complaint I have is the presentation of some of the data. They are
showing, for instance, the top 10 states with the most cases. But what they
don't show is over capita. Another issue I discovered is the false
negatives. A local Dr from Mass General said it was 30%. In doing some
quick research could be up to 50%. This is dangerous. That Dr explained how
improperly swabbing the nose could miss the virus in an infected person.
And the lack of effective testing. Testing is getting better and more
widespread.

COVID-19 is spread person to person. Large congregations of people is a
petri dish of germs waiting to strike. Wearing a face mask will not really
protect you, but it will protect others around you.
