Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!
For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

We have a 2 week Hawaii trip scheduled in November, including a condo right on Napili Bay for one of the weeks. We are assuming they will still have their protocols in place to require a negative test just prior to coming. My wife is considering not going, because she is afraid of the nasal swab
And when I tested positive I paid for the test through a local clinic and was surprised when they had me do a spit-in-the-cup test. That was a little more time consuming to sit there and spit in the cup until I filled to the little line- probably the main reason they do the nasal swab for mass testing. Maybe you can request that one. It cost me like $130 out of pocket."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch! I'll make his whole brand go under,"

We have a one-week timeshare at the Marriott Kauai Beach Club, reserved for mid-August. The current requirement calls for a negative result from a test taken no more than 72 hours before takeoff from the States. Given that results don't become available from the nearby testing centers for at least five days, this makes it impossible for us to go.

As long as you do it at a hospital that is big enough, they may do the testing in house. You could have results in a couple of hours.

I hope his optimism is well placed, and we have a working vaccine soon. Having said that:
That interview came off as a Pfizer promotional commercial. There are some valid reasons why they are developing that type of vaccine, especially in the face of a pandemic. But there are just as valid reasons to work on a live vaccine. There may be significant differences in immunity between a live and their version of a vaccine. And I know if they were to get into those details in the interview it would have quickly gotten bogged down. But since he already has a GA hat, his rooting for Pfizer (I acknowledge it could have been worse) is unseemly. IMO, it would have been a much better interview had he kept his COVID talk to the basics."...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd.

Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

This is kind of analogous to the Salk v Sabin vaccines for polio. Both conferred immunity, but Sabin’s live vaccine was more effective (with the downside of causing rare cases of polio...)."...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd.
