I'm not sure I would want to be

tested for the virus. I don't know how bad this pandemic will be, but I believe that the problems are going to continue to 2021. I am so polarized against this fake pRes that I don't want my name on the list of positive results. For all I know, I'll get picked up and shipped offshore to some petri dish of a ship floating there with no port to disembark.

From all the reading I've done, I feel that I am not in the group that would receive treatment, anyway. So, they don't need to know my status. I am quarantined by life anyway. I'll stay away and wait. Except for buying groceries, of course. Maybe I can set up a grocery delivery deal with Walmart. And avoid getting out of my car altogether.

It is way past the point where testing would have done us some good. Just presume that everyone has it, and act accordingly.

We don't know so many things about this virus. Those are the things I want to hear about. Not the knee-jerk crap that Trump addresses. It's too late for that. I want to know what he is going to do economically to keep us from going into a depression. Great business man that he is, and all...

Could you get tested, and the next thing you know a HazMat SWAT team is sealing your house and taking you to a Quarantine Center?
