@ClaraJeffery @jdesmondharris The at-home test kits are pretty good for the "probably fine but just want to be careful" circumstance. — PolitiTweet.org

The better argument (I don't know that I agree, but it at least recognizes people's strong desire for normalcy) is the opposite one. That people *can* get back to ~normal because vaccines << hospitalizations/deaths so we can take our time figuring out how to boost the right way. — PolitiTweet.org

@ClaraJeffery @jdesmondharris I don't know that's quite right. The one I took (Abbott BinaxNow) has about 98.5% specifity and 85% sensitivity. The specific chance you get a false negative or false positive depends on what your prior probability is about how likely you are to have COVID. — PolitiTweet.org
