[ExI] ;covid test

[William Flynn Wallace]

Report today:  Thousands of BRits may be false negatives.

Well, duh, if you don't have a perfect correlation and make a cutoff you
are going to have false negatives and false positives.  The question is:
where do you set the cutoff?  I assume that the worst thing is a false
negative.  For a false positive you test again.  For false negatives?
What?  Anyone know?
