    Which is something people have been discussing for weeks here in San Francisco, including RNs that have been thinking back to early January. So how do we move this from a collection of anecdotes and immediate dismissal to prioritizing some antibody tests to the bay area. Possibly reopening it faster and keeping it open. Just acknowledging the possibility can influence public policy, and the research that some other people want to see before they can acknowledge it.
