  1. Why would you want to get tested for just Sars-cov-2? Why not get tested for other viruses such as other Coronaviruses, Enteroviruses, Paramyxovirus, Myxoviruses and a whole bunch of other viruses which have a mortality rate of 2.1%????

  2. Instead of greasing Democrat voters by using $86 billion from the last COVID stimulus to bailout failing pensions the money could've been used for testing. Less than 1/7th of 86 billion went to testing.

  3. I saw a young man being interviewed on the news, who said he had a headache, that’s why he was waiting in line for Covid test? Is the younger generation that uninformed? Sad, really sad. Get it, get over it, get on with your life. Common cold surging! Dislike button counter still broken YouTube another blow against free speech! Can you say censorship, I think you can.

  4. Mindless Lemmings…..
    I think you should all panic. And crash the economy. In fact please do it. Let’s lock everything down again. HARD! I want to watch what happens when the food supply dries up.

  5. How the "F" can there be a shortage? Did nobody in local or federal government realize the holidays were coming and there would a run on testing. I don't care about the party, they have both dropped the ball.
    From day one this has been treated with indifference.
    Last year I took my 90 year old mother to get vaccinated by appointment in Minnesota. At the time it was very cold and I had to walk my mother half way around the building ( because they wouldn't let us in the front door) only to be met by a cluster of people at the door because the check in was immediately inside the door we had to enter.
    Now this year I am still trying to do the right thing hoping to get tested and the home kits are unavailable and when I see the test sites, I see a line of people with little to no social distancing. Why the hell would I hopefully not have covid only to go get tested and catch covid?

  9. Biden is to blame. His policy mandates the test or loose your job. He did it to put business at risk, and force millions on welfare. No man could be so stupid as to believe it was an accident. He has zero path going forward. What a worthless and pathetic human.

  10. Hey guys I have an idea how we can deal with these worker shortages, we can make it harder for them to get to work and burden the test shortage more by mandating them. God I'm a genius, you're all welcome

  11. Too busy pushing vaccines that don't work to worry about testing and actual prevention measures like better health and healthcare for everyone, and I mean ppl need to get themselves in better health stop being glutons and our taxes should be providing top notch health care largely in the form of prevention and early diagnosis getting ppl involved lived in their own health by empowering them with a means of getting checkups and tests etc….

  12. Everybody has it in my house, I’m supposed to get tested but no tests anywhere and nobody will take me until January 6th for drive thru. I think I’ll know whether i have it or not by then.

  19. I work in Urgent Care. I have tested thousands of people and testing is useless. There is no cure for Covid, and all we can do is treat the symptoms. The biggest issue healthcare facilities who do testing is that businesses keep sending in their employees for testing just for them to get a piece of paper saying they are negative or positive. Companies could help ease up on our healthcare force by testing employees at their company site instead of sending them into us. Most businesses received pandemic funds specifically for testing at the workplace. So, what happened to all that money they received for testing??? Everyone has been exposed at some point by now. We need to just stop testing, send people home if they are sick, and stop clogging up healthcare sites for testing. Heart attack patients can't even be seen because everyone keeps panicking that Covid is going to do them in and then they rush to the ER or Urgent Care, and it leaves no room for actual emergencies. Stay home if you're sick, take OTC meds, and rest!!!!

  22. So am I the only one baffled why people still wait in huge lines to get tested for no reason (unless an employer or the likes requires it). If you suspect you have it, then stay home.

  24. The M ARE ENN AY injections have been shown to enter cell nuclei and damage DEE ENN AY, but the JJ injections have only been shown to create a tiny, short-term risk of blud klotz.

  26. Funny thing about statistics- since most of the US population has been vaccinated all recent outbreaks have you at statistically more likely to contract COVID if you are vaccinated than not based purely on the numbers of vaccinated getting infected than unvaccinated. ie the Massachusetts outbreak 73 % of the infected fully vaccinated

  28. Can someone help me understand their strategy now?

    I know they’re dumb, but are they

    Guys, I don’t know how to say this any more clearly: it is OVER.
    The Omicold (pronounced Immacold) variant is about to bring this clown show to its inevitable conclusion.
    I know none of our supposedly non-racist public health authorities were willing to believe the South African numbers, but we now have almost a month of data out of Denmark.
    They are real. And they are spectacular.

    

    Between Dec. 13 and Dec. 20, Denmark reported approximately 50,000 confirmed Omicron cases.
    Given the approximately one-week lag between infection and hospitalization, those people should be flooding into hospitals.
    EXCEPT THE NUMBER OF OMICRON PATIENTS IN DANISH HOSPITALS HAS NOT RISEN IN THE LAST WEEK.
    You read that right. 50,000 positive tests the week before, no change in hospitalizations. Admissions have risen slightly, but patients are being discharged as fast as they are being admitted.
    The result: as of Dec. 21, Danish hospitals had 47 Omicron patients, with under five (the report is not more specific) in intensive care.
    As of Dec. 27, the hospitals had 51 Omicron patients, again with under five in intensive care.

  29. Omi has 200k confirmed cases and despite circulating for almost two months, only, what, 15 deaths? Hospitalizations are down, and the wave is falling in South Africa. This is good, good news. I think it's going to infect everyone, not kill many, and give them natural immnutity. (Intentional typo.)
