Testing, Testing, Testing: What Does It Mean?
In light of recent events, it’s hard to believe in the world outside. Stuck at home, the string of fires set across our nation in protest break our hearts for all of the people they may impact. It’s hard to remember that 100,000 people have died from COVID-19, and the threat is far from over, when we see images of people gathered in the streets to speak their minds. However, the fact of the matter is the novel coronavirus will likely not subside for months, if not years, and we need to begin to adapt to a life in the midst of a pandemic. The key to this initiative is testing, and it is likely you will have to take some form of the test in the near future, even if you aren’t feeling sick.
