How to test everyone for the coronavirus. It all depends in which country your testing in: Russia, N Korea and China 100% MANDATORY, UK, Australia, Canada and America 100% Voluntary.

No, this means EVERYBODY, and not just once but frequently. At home. This guy Rothberg is trying to develop at-home antibody testing AND diagnostic tests in the $3-10 range.

The article is particularly well written, IMHO. Most of the reporting in the universal press has failed to explain what the heck is holding up much higher volumes of PCR testing now: is it personnel to make the kits, personnel to administer them, labs to process? Plastic bags to put them in? Labs are saying the volume in the US is FALLING. I've read swabs are scarce; I suppose they all come from China. Anyway, this article gives more detail about how these tests are run and why they take a bit of time.

Very encouraging. I'm pretty sure this invention will come, just hope it's sooner rather than later.

Thanks for the FYI, I am encouraged and hopeful that home PCR testing becomes a reality and soon.
