The Abbott machine runs an antibody test, so it could be that one they are setting up. Is the Abbott test the only FDA-approved antibody test as of now?

private drive thru testing site in Montgomery County currently validating a serology test machine that will give results in 6 minutes
no clue if it's the Abbott machine (I didn't think that ran on serology)
A buddy of mine is setting up a self-pay drive thru testing site that tests both for antibodies and viral RNA in San Antonio. He is using the Abbot machine. Reports results in 5 minutes, per him.cone said:

That's awesome, do you have any more info like what part of town, etc.?
Italy new infections down another 10% day over day. Now the fewest since March 11. (Italy's deaths are kinda flat. Wonder if their system is just simply burned out?)
Spain also with new infections down 10% day over day. The fewest since March 20th. Deaths also dropped 35% day over day.
Germany with a 50% daily drop in day over day new cases, and is under 1000 for the first time since March 14th.

I understand this is a good news thread, but to what end are these numbers really "good news?" Ultimately, Italy cannot stay locked down until there are no more cases. That's impossible. At some point, they're gonna have to say "let's go"
Correct, Wuhan lockdown ended April 8th. Italy is allowing some places to reopen. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-52275959queso1 said:

Germany starting to reopen as well and we'll most likely be in a couple weeks / early May, it's coming quickly (and it needs to)
It looks like the "saddest week of our lives" thing won't pan out.
It's been to long since I have seen anything posted here. So here is something small in the grand scheme but a big deal to me.
I am a 3rd generation car dealer in Waco Tx. We offer roughly 30-50 vehicles for retail and I do alot of wholesale( dealer to dealer sales). I have bought 4 cars in 4weeks...maybe. I usually buy 10-15/ week.
Today I had 2 of my sources call me on vehicles. I was able to buy 11 today! This is a great sign for my business.
Hope this helps others to hear some sort of positive news in the business world.
GIG-EM and God Bless!

How long do you want to ignore this user?

The beach on the left means it isn't the Champs Elysee, as do the palm trees on the right. The filename of the pic is "rk_spain_020520.jpg." It appears to be a picture from somewhere on the Spanish coast, taken on May 2, 2020.Legal Custodian said:

Well I'm a dummy, that's what I get for being oblivious
I consider this good news. In Lubbock county, we now have more recovered cases than active cases.
Praise God for that!!!
