Rapid testing is possible today. Here's an example from an apparently more advanced country with a sophisticated effective government:

Dan My Friend (and Vita),
After our Honeymooners exchange I am surprised my humor is too dry for you. Of course I do not believe that there is an Arab country with a government that is as advanced or effective as our own. But the 10 minute pre-boarding test is a damn good trick, and it is disappointing/sad that they beat us--American, United, FAA, TSA, CDC, etc--to the punch. Don't ya think? |

Talking about the Emirates ..... the Emirates Airlines is a big sponsor for tennis
http://www.emirates.com/US/english/a...orship/tennis/ including the U S Tennis Open in NYC ...... that now has two large tennis stadiums converted into a field hospital and food distribution to support victims of the coronavirus in New York. So that Emirates Airlines sponsor money is now going to help with the support effort in NYC.

Testing and vaccines will be a part of our foreseeable lives but when and how are almost 7,000,000,000 people going to be tested or inoculated? Advanced? No, they have lots of money and can buy technology and people. |

Additionally, if the test shows the person has had Covid-19 antibodies it is still not known for certain if these antibodies actually do protect and if they do, we do not know how long the protection lasts. BUT it is exactly the kind of test that should be perfected and can be helpful in opening up the country. We are not quite there yet with this antibody test.
