We are still in the Orange zone. I guess with the Influenza season on the horizon we need to be more careful and do more The best that we can do is to Keep our distance, wear a mask, and wash our hands and face as many times as we can. We also need to consider life style changes with online activities only for now until the vaccines are available.

But people aren’t getting their tests back quickly enough. "Well, that’s just stupidity. The majority of all US tests are completely garbage, wasted. If you don’t care how late the date is and you reimburse at the same level, of course they’re going to take every customer. Because they are making ridiculous money, and it’s mostly rich people that are getting access to that. You have to have the reimbursement system pay a little bit extra for 24 hours, pay the normal fee for 48 hours, and pay nothing [if it isn’t done by then]. And they will fix it overnight." Makes sense. Read the Whole interview and you decide on your own
