Why do we care about Corona virus testing?

    We can tell if someone is ill by talking to them, taking their temperature and doing those med school things that doctors are taught in med school.  If the person doesn’t think he/she is ill, and a face to face examination fails to reveal any illness, why do we care about a lab style test?  If the test reports illness in an obviously well patient, the test has reported a false positive.  Do we need to run a laboratory style test to determine that a person is ill?  I think not. 

   And, test results are subject to change without warming.  You can test negative in the morning and catch Corona virus in the afternoon. 

   Why bother messing around with tests?  If you worry about catching Corona virus, get yourself vaccinated.
