Rich and Famous Getting Access To CV Testing
Lots in the media over the past few days about how NBA teams with asymptomatic players are managing to get everyone on the team tested while actual sick people can't.
One counterargument is that knowing celebrities are getting tested and are okay after testing positive makes it more likely "regular folks" will get tested but that mostly sounds like bullshit to me.
Pro athletes are by definition in peak physical condition. Why are we testing them and others who don't even have symptoms?

I've been sick for five days and my doctor sent me for CV testing -But they wouldn't do it as I wasn't considered likely to be infected (though at very high risk if I catch it).

I agree 100%. We should all have access to testing.

And when asked, Trump, who according to the Constitution can “do whatever he wants” says he can’t do anything about that and promptly gets hustled off the podium.
