The United States has surpassed 50,000 deaths from coronavirus and it is stated that are one million infections country wide. I feel this number is severely underestimated. There are many states like California that are predicting many millions that could be infected. There is a lack of testing and appropriate testing in this country,. We need to look at other countries with better tests .
Despite what you are reading - there will be a second wave of cases . I feel this will occur in December 2020. This will occur as the government and states issue statements to let people go back to work. I feel without adequate testing we are taking a chance. I know the economy is affected., We all are being effected by this. YOU are not alone. WE are in this crisis together
We are offering Ig G and IgM testing in our office in Connecticut. The test is offered from the company BioTek. Unfortunately for whatever reason the test is not offered in the State of New York. It is important to find out if you had the illness and have antibodies. The WHO made a statement about IgG antibodies . At first it was stated IgG antibodies might not mean you are immune as they don’t know what the level of immunity is. To an extent this is correct but Ig G antibodies do mean you have had the virus and can give us some information to you immunity.
We might be better prepared for the second wave of corona. We also have to understand we have influenza in the Fall/winter that also affects millions and causes death.
The states like Georgia and Nevada are making decisions for the economy. I understand that. This might be a mistake and more will die
Until tomorrow…
