If we test EVERYONE, and the numbers hold, that's almost 30,000,000 positive cases.


That's over 800,000 dead, absent a vaccine or a miracle.



And everyone who dies had a Family and friends who loved them. You are very fortunate that you haven't suffered the loss of anyone you cared about. Here's hoping and praying you never do.
The number of people that die would not change just because you test more people. you will just have more people tested that didn't die.
