About treatments and hopeful news by the end of 2020 |
Interesting...? |
This is good news! I’m glad research into treatments hasn’t been shelved in the race for a vaccine. We definitely need them in case a vaccine doesn’t pan out. |

Maryland has purchased 250,000 rapid antigen tests that will be deployed to locations where they are needed most, including nursing homes, correctional facilities and colleges, Gov. Larry Hogan announced in a news conference Thursday morning. The state is a founding member of a bipartisan interstate testing compact for rapid point-of-care antigen testing in which five Democratic and five Republican governors have agreed to work with The Rockefeller Foundation to acquire and deploy five million antigen tests. “This state of the art rapid testing will be critically important to our continued economic recovery and will help us to keep the people of our state safe. Our plan is to begin deploying these rapid tests to nursing homes and assisted living facilities in order to test all residents, staff, and visitors, and to our correctional and juvenile detention centers. We’re also in discussions to send them to dormitories and campuses of our colleges and universities,” he said The new acquisition will help Maryland “tackle isolated outbreak and cluster scenarios” similar to what took place at some nursing homes and meat processing plants along the east coast during the coronavirus pandemic. These are the governors who have signed onto the interstate compact: Republicans: Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine Utah Gov. Gary Herbert Democrats: Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper Rhode Island Gov. Gina Raimondo Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam |
