[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tests are more widely available, and people are wasting them. There are tons of threads on dcum where people say they got their family tested before driving to visit grandma or go to the cape, and then they got tested again when they came home. No symptoms. No reason to think they were sick. And their entire family was tested twice within the span of a month. [/quote] Why is that "wasting" a test? Please explain.[/quote] A test administered to anyone, symptomatic or otherwise, has value. We know that asymptomatic individuals can spread the virus, so a positive test result in an asymptomatic person should lead to quarantine, thereby protecting anyone that person might come into contact with. In a perfect world, sick people shouldn't be out and about. Testing helps to keep positive asymptomatic people from spreading the virus.[/quote]
