I understand that people don't want to get infected, but that doesn't change the reality that everyone will be exposed. https://www.npr.org/2022/01/12/1072548446/public-health-expe... The virus isn't going away. No one will be able to avoid it without living as a hermit. The CDC estimated that about 44% of Americans had already been infected as of October 2021 and with the more contagious Omicron variant now circulating we're probably well over 50%. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cases-updates/burd... Additional home testing is largely a feel-good measure. It might ease some people's anxiety but won't significantly change the course of the pandemic. |
