DAYS WHERE THEY %
HAVE BEEN
GETTING THE %
CORONAVIRUS AND %
PASSING TO OTHER %
PEOPLE AND NOT
NECESSARILY %
GETTING THE TEST
RESULTS. %
>>> THE WHITE
HOUSE SAYS THE %
PRESIDENT GETS %
TESTED MULTIPLE %
TIMES A DAY
USING ABBOTT %
RAPID TEST. %
HOW ACCURATE ARE %
THE RAPID %
RESULTS? %
>> THE RAPID %
TEST HE IS USING %
IS DIFFERENT %
THAN MOST OF THE %
TESTS YOU ARE
SEEING AROUND
THE COUNTRY. %
THIS RAPID TEST
IS A 15 MINUTE %
TEST, USING A %
NASAL SWAB AND %
RESULTS COME
BACK QUICKLY. %
IT STILL USES %
SOPHISTICATED %
EQUIPMENT BUT
THE CONCERN IS %
SOME TESTS HAVE,
INDEPENDENT %
TESTS HAVE SHOWN %
IT’S NOT AS %
ACCURATE AS WE %
WOULD LIKE. %
IT IS SHOWING %
PEOPLE THEY’RE %
NEGATIVE WHEN IN %
FACT THEY’RE %
POSITIVE. %
SOME SAY IT’S AS %
HIGH AS 25%. %
SO ONE OUT OF
FOUR IT’S %
MISSING. %
IF THEY’RE %
TESTING MULTIPLE %
TIMES A DAY OR %
DAY AFTER DAY, %
YOU CAN’T PUT A %
LOT OF %
CONFIDENCE INTO %
THE TEST %
RESULTS. %
GETTING THE
OTHER TESTS THAT
ARE MORE %
SENSITIVE, MORE
SPECIFIC CAN BE
HELPFUL IN THE %
INTERIM WHILE
THEY’RE USING %
THIS TEST AS %
WELL. %
>> WITH THAT %
CONCERN, DOES IT %
MAJOR SENSE THAT
THE RAPID TESTS %
AREN’T READILY
AVAILABLE TO THE %
PUBLIC? %
WHY IS THAT? %
>> THE TEST IS A
GOOD TEST IF %
BEING USED %
APPROPRIATELY %
AND BEING USED
IN THE %
APPROPRIATE %
ENVIRONMENT. %
IN A SITUATION %
LIKE THE WHITE %
HOUSE WHERE THE %
SAME PERSON IS %
TAKING THE TEST
OR PEOPLE THAT %
ARE HIGHLY
TRAINED ARE %
TAKING THE TEST,
THAT RATE OF %
SENSITIVITY AND %
SPECIFICITY, %
POSSESS AND %
NEGATIVES CAN BE %
HIGH. %
IN A PLACE GOING %
THROUGH IN MASS %
NUMBERS, IT’S
MORE DIFFICULT %
TO DO THAT. %
USING THEM ON A %
MASS SCALE LIKE %
THAT WOULD BE %
TOUGHER BECAUSE %
THE ACCURACY %
MIGHT NOT BE %
THERE LIKE IT %
WOULD BE FOR THE
OTHER TESTS. %
THAT’S WHY
THEY’RE USING %
TESTS THAT HAVE
SUCH A BIG %
BACKLOG BECAUSE %
THEY WANT TO BE
SURE THEY’RE %
ACCURATE IN THE %
ASSESSMENT. %
LETTING PEOPLE
KNOW THAT YOU %
HAVE IT IF YOU
HAVE IT AND NO %
YOU DON’T HAVE
IT IF YOU DON’T %
HAVE IT. %
>>> I HAVE A %
VIEWER QUESTION %
FOR YOU. %
ARE THERE %
DIFFERENT %
STRAINS OF %
CORONAVIRUS, AND
HOW DOES THAT %
IMPACT PEOPLE? %
>> I GET THIS
QUESTION A LOT. %
WHAT THEY’RE %
REFERRING TO IS
ANY TIME A VIRUS
COMES BACK,
VIRUSES %
CONSTANTLY %
CHANGE,
CONSTANTLY %
MUTATE. %
THAT’S WHAT %
VIRUSES DO. %
THE CORONAVIRUS %
IS NO DIFFERENT. %
THEY FOUND THAT
THE CORONAVIRUS %
THAT ORIGINATED %
IN CHINA IS %
DIFFERENT THAN %
THE CORONAVIRUS %
WE ARE SEEING IN %
EUROPE AND UK. %
THAT LITTLE BIT
OF DIFFERENCE, %
MOST EXPERTS ARE %
SAYING IT LOOKS %
LIKE IT CAUSES
THE VIRUS TO BE %
MORE CONTAGIOUS. %
PEOPLE CAN CATCH %
IT QUICKER BUT %
IT IS NOT MORE
DEADLY. %
IT MAY BE LESS
DEADLY THAN THE %
ONE IN CHINA. %
GOOD NEWS, BAD %
NEWS, IT’S
EASIER TO CATCH
BUT DOESN’T %
CAUSE AS MANY %
COMPLICATIONS OR
DEATHS AS THE %
ORIGINAL ONE. %
THIS IS NOT A
MUTATION IN THE %
SENSE OF
MUTATIONS THAT
PEOPLE THINK OF. %
PEOPLE THINK OF %
A HUGE %
SIGNIFICANT
CHANGE THAT THE %
CURRENT
TECHNIQUES, %
TREATMENTS, %
VACCINATIONS %
WOULDN’T WORK %
FOR. %
WE ARE NOT %
SEEING THAT WITH %
CORONAVIRUS. %
THESE HAVE BEEN
VERY SMALL %
CHANGES WHICH IS %
CONSISTENT WITH %
VIRUSES ON A
NATURAL BASIS %
AND CORONAVIRUS
IS DOING THE
SAME THING, %
SAVANNAH. %
>> THANKS SO %
MUCH. %
I ALWAYS FEEL %
BETTER TALKING %
TO YOU. %
WE KNOW AT LEAST %
A LITTLE BIT OF %
WHAT’S GOING ON. %
THANKS FOR
BREAKING IT DOWN
FOR US. %
>> YOU BET. %
>>> YOU’RE %
WATCHING NBC %
NEWS NOW. %
>> WE’VE GOT %
SOME BREAKING %
NEWS. %
>> IF THEY GO
BACK TO THEIR %
JOBS, THEY WANT
TO BE SURE THEY %
ARE PROTECTED. %

THAT’S WHY WE %
ARE DOWN HERE. %
THERE IS ALWAYS %
ANOTHER WAY. %
THAT’S ALL I
WANT HIM TO SEE. %
