Likely no one will ever know. If you had stayed at home you could rest assured you didn't infect any one. Had you have worn a mask, you can be fairly sure you didn't infect anyone. If you didn't wear the mask you have no way of knowing. How is that crowd at Sooke Pot Holes any different from the crowd in Kelowna who infected all kinds of people? :)
That is the point , it isn’t , but who cares mos t who contact this disease are symptom free . Protect the vulnerable and get on with life .

We are all vulnerable, with the exception PERHAPS of those who have already had it.

It could be argued that your statement is not entirely true seeing that H1N1 was not considered much worse than the seasonal flu and testing didn't play a big role in controlling the virus. COVID-19 on the other hand is far more deadly, and testing is important for contact tracing and isolation.
Further, the "what about Obama" card is becoming tiresome, and in this case, is flawed. If you believe Obama made a bad call in ceasing testing for H1N1 does that not imply that Trump discouraging testing concerning Covid-19 is just as egregious? In essence, you are pointing the same finger at Trump as you are at Obama.

Maybe Trump should play the Obama card and just stop posting test results and proclaim it's here deal with it.

But we both know the MSM wouldn't let it go and attack him in the name of holding Trump to task, not like they did for Obama and essentially agreed with him and buried it.

What I'm hearing, is immunity is good for maybe 2 months, then you can catch it again.

Same with the vaccine they just developed. It produced a solid immune response that lasted about 2 months.

I'm ok with getting a shot every 2 months if it means we can go back to normal.

Alberta registered 141 new cases, the vast majority being people 20-39 years old. This is the most amount of new cases for Alberta since early May. IN fact, there have been 573 new cases today, the most amount of new cases since June 7.
How many are dying in the streets ?
