By the time you stand in line a day for a PCR test and wait 3 days for a result, it's too late for Monoclonals
That's the killer strategy by DeSantis, tout the monoclonals but then deny availability by screwing up testing
I'm not quite sure that explains the national shortage of mabs.

Given where things are in DC  and the limits on executive power, not much else he can do right now. Especially if the Supreme Court limits OSHA's ETS powers. He's really stuck if OSHA gets its wings clipped.

I agree with this. 

Legal experts told us early on that state governments have broad powers to protect public health during a health emergency (e.g., setting quarantines, business restrictions, gathering limitations and personal protection measures), while the power of the federal government is limited by law and legal precedent. 

We also found out early that the use of emergency health powers would vary among the states.  Some states took aggressive action.  Others left key decisions to local governments, and a few restricted the imposition of certain measures at the local level. 

I wish the feds had done much more to support the states and local health authorities in controlling the spread of the virus.  I think the Trump and Biden administrations both dropped the ball when it came to providing leadership and funding for things like testing, PPE, improved ventilation and contact tracing.

Thanks for asking! Rapid test from shady pop up testing place came back negative this AM. Have to wait for the other test. PassiveWoman has been concerned as she has a busy few weeks at work. PassiveSon is caughing all the time in the basement. AggressiveSon seems fine. Dog and bird seem good.
It's paywalled, but just sayin.
Jack Posobiec, right wing nut job born and raised in Philly, said Philly gonna Philly.
In the city that works, where LabElite is based, it would probably be 'test early, test often'.

Passive/aggressive status of dog and bird?

Bird is over 20, so it is PassiveBird these days. The dog is PassiveAggressiveDog.

Yeah idk what the fuck Murph is talking about. Just wants to bash Desantis. I got mine within the 10 days but the Administrator/Director at the public health department said I could still get them after the 10 days as long as my doctor said it was alright and approved it.

Maybe we should stop wasting these "precious few" tests on asymptomatic people?  To quote the great Tony Fauci "asymptomatic people are not the major vector for transmitting disease"

So the friend of the family that just died of Covid (the 2nd one) was only 29. Yep, only at risk if you’re old. Had a 4 year old, 1 year old, and a baby on the way.

There is a freakin' testing place seemingly every block on Harlem Ave.
