Eh not for $30 a pop though.. it's not like you take it once and say "Yay I don't have it! back to normal!".

- mlyle 6y agoTesting once per week is $4 per day, which definitely adds up. But if you do this testing staggered across a population, you interrupt a whole lot of transmission chains. Not to mention a whole lot of the $30 is the disposable bluetooth scanner. If you wanted to do this kind of antigen test repeatedly at the population level you'd make different choices.

- TravisLS 6y agoWe in the US spent something like $7000/citizen on stimulus so far though, so $30/test gets you a lot of tests if it mitigates the economic effects of the virus.
