A scientist on a podcast recommended an easy way to stop covid a year ago--print up billions of paper self-test spit-test strips and use them daily if you think you have covid and just quarantine it out if so. We have the technology to make these tests at 95%+ accuracy and for pennies.
So I went looking to buy them, because it's a good idea and surely I can buy 1000 covid tests for $100 right? Nope, that's not the world we get to have under capitalism. The first test I saw is individually wrapped in a box. You have to swab your nose and mail it in to a lab and you get your results in two days.
We have wweaponized thehealthcare system against ourselves.
