Wow! I had no idea they could, or would do this.
I guess I'm just glad it isn't me doing it!

I have to say "wow!" too. Talk about Big Brother watching. But, in this case, for the good of everyone in the community.

Um- they really went out a limb there....could be between 2,300 and 115,000. That is some fancy analysis.

Well, we already know that we are doing very little testing, so the number of people infected IS automatically going to be much higher than the number of confirmed cases. I’ve personally given up on the use and validity of Covid-19 testing. Widespread antibody testing would be much more useful at this point. JMHO. YMMV.

(Among other things.) And things / people I didn't believe / trust previously, I absolutely don't now. I just hope this isn't our new long term normal. But think how far DNA testing is going to become. Or so I assume.

Have they found anything crazy in your sewer system?
I haven't heard of anything around my area. But over the weekend, they found a dead raccoon in a water storage tank, in the county next to mine. Yikes!
