True, but if that's really the case then how often should a person without any symptoms be tested? Especially if they haven't really been anywhere that they probably were never exposed to the virus in the first place?

Being a Cylon for awhile might be cool. Where do I sign up to download into one for a week?
Don't want any part of 19 though. Doesn't seem like any fun at all.
Only once. Test everybody, and quarantine the infected. Presto, 19 gone. America can go back to work.

You're absolutely correct...we are a very mobilized society.

All I'm saying is that if we started testing the ones who didn't have any symptoms then where would be the breaking point to stop so they wouldn't constantly be tested all the time? Seems to me our focus should be the ones who already think that they might have the disease so we can prevent others from catching it.
It's the exact same thing of if you were to be tested for the measles on a daily basis even if there were no signs of you actually having the disease. At least to me it is. Now, I don't actually know how long symptoms develop with the measles, I'm just trying to make a point that it doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

On the brighter side...
They have identified 70 different drugs that have the ability to stop this virus...
Effectiveness is another thing altogether. Trials can begin with the ones that are available.
It appears that there's not much that is going to happen with science intervening to stop this pandemic.
It's going to go through the WHOLE world...China thinks that they stopped it from spreading into their country...ha ha...they are going to get it again and again and again until it goes through their entire country. Maybe someone from Italy will bring it back to them.
The trials for a vaccine... don't get your hopes up. That's going to be at least 10 years out.
I know that they are starting one trial in Washington State...but I doubt it's efficacy.

I thought that it already spreaded through their entire country though.
Anyways, either way, I hope that they can take care of this thing by summertime. It's going to be a lousy summer if we're going to have to be forced to stay home all of the time.

TSSSSS...

...It worked in the town of Vo. They tested everyone, quarantined the infected, and then the town was safe.
Only if they are silly enough to let infected Italians into their country.

They must have accomplished it rather quickly then if they managed to do all of that without the people who tested negative developing symptoms. Haven't some people needed to be tested multiple times though until they were tested positive?

Vo has a population of about 3,000. To test everyone in the US requires 331,000,000 tests to be completed simultaneously. I know we have some very capable, dedicated, intelligent people in this country but even that would be an impossible task. Since it would take weeks to accomplish, or more, the virus could still be spreading while the tests are being done.
So, I get tested today and it comes up negative. As I am leaving the facility I happen to touch the doorknob or handrail or breath the air where the virus has invaded and I become infected on my way home. Lucky me, I don't have any adverse symptoms and in fact have no recognizable symptoms so I go about my business without a care, thinking I'm in the clear. In the process I pass the virus to hundreds of others over the course of the next couple to three weeks while I remain infectious and the process starts all over again.

I was booked in as I had a safety recall on my vehicle to get something done and I cannot get a new safety certificate on my vehicle because they shut down and it expires Tommorow.
My intention was to have my vehicle road legal and have everything done but the government said I cannot do it.
Im not going to be stuck because the government created a situation my car cannot be road legal. I still got work and need to get essential items. I work 40mins drive and can legally still work, I cannot borrow a vehicle that's a big ask and also I'm not insured for other peoples vehicles.
Sometimes you have to break the rules when it conflicts. Not my fault.
