How come Figment can get a Dr. appt. before I can see a doctor or dentist?

Because his visit is completely out of pocket and doesn't involve the insurance companies. That's my guess.

Nope...got doggie insurance,  but its handled differently than human insurance.

I' might be wrong, but I don't know that there's been any evidence that this can be spread via animals. I'm sure that's the reason.

I thought dogs and cats have contracted COVID-19. I could be wrong.

They can catch it, and apparently, transfer it to other animals, based on something else I just read. The question is can they transmit it to humans? Seems like the answer is not likely, at least at this point in the research.

A four day timeline is not significant.  Need three weeks for a detrimental effect to become known, and even that is a big maybe with the vaguery of testing and data compilation.

Especially since this can be dormant for up to 2 weeks before symptoms begin. But it should be fairly obvious that cases will increase as more people venture out. That's like predicting that if it's raining, more people will get wet if they leave the house.

OK, but what's your point?  More cases now vs March 30th?  Isn't that true just about everywhere?  What am I missing here?

Because dogs have more freedom than people under the pandemic laws rules guidelines edicts.

Good thing, too. Because dogs are happy with their dog food, they're not going to have armed protests because they can't go to Applebees.

I just got out of quest diagnostics for routine blood work and antibody test. 2.5 hours and I almost got in a scuffle. I had to tell a guy he's too close and they are only 10 people allowed in waiting room. That's when he started dropping F bombs and told me to mind my own business. I said you are my business and to go outside like the rest of the other people.
I'm going shopping, bank, and get dog food.. Have a good day. See you all later.

Guess he is missing Applebees, too.  What a douche.

What we'll be looking for is how the trends change once states open back up. But we'll need a couple weeks worth of data to get a complete picture of what re-opening has done as far as cases go.

You're assuming the testing protocols have been constant for the duration, which they have not.  The trend data is flawed.

Well, you're right about that. If we'd had the testing available since the start, we'd have a more accurate picture of actual cases, since it's obviously much higher than we're currently able to identify.
