That's for sure. It's something that we can count on.

It’ll be interesting to see if the Duggar cult falls prey to Covid-19, with their fundamentalist “togetherness.”

I wish that "they" would stop calling them testing sites. You'll be evaluated. A few who look like a danger to society as we know it will be tested, but that's it.

They will be evaluated over the phone. Those who meet the criteria will be tested. The drive-thrus in Arkansas so far are by appointment only.

Don't rely on the testing much. Please don't.

I'm reading online in the Paradise Post about people who had been tested 3-4 times. At one time they tested free from the virus, then a few days later infected, then free again next week.

Anyway, I can be tested, declared free, and five minutes later while touching a door handle or pumping gas get infected. Someone infected won't show symptoms for several days and he can hurt / infect anyone who comes near him.

Some people get infected and never become aware because they have a robust immune system but they can go around infecting dozens including their grandpa.

Five days later: "So tell me grandpa, the classic Corvette you promised to leave me if the day comes, when was the last time it had an oil change?"

What does their religion have to do with the virus? It isn't spread by bad habits other than not washing your hands, etc. No one is safe from exposure unless they have isolated them selves for the past 3 or so weeks.

What a stupid thing to say. If you think the Duggar family is a problem in this country, perhaps you haven't visited big cities. I'd rather be around them or any of their kids before most others.

Can't rep you for while, but I totally agree with you: lets see if the poster returns to explain.

there's nothing to "explain;" I'm merely wondering (which we are all free to do.)
