Faster, cheaper tests could reshape COVID 19 response
The Pittsburgh Post Gazette notes that current testing is insufficient, with about 750000 daily tests and 60000 positives, and slow results impede uptake. Harvard and Stanford researchers propose rapid tests offering minutes results with lower accuracy. MIT works with 3M on rapid tests, while Yale’s saliva test offers scalable processing though not rapid. Regulators fear false negatives but regular testing could curb spread and aid reopening.

It cites James Roosevelt Jr and Henry Wallace Jr urging Biden to advance bold jobs programs, while discussing Green New Deal talk and Republican reactions. It also notes European leaders eyeing Rooseveltian recovery models and critiques crony capitalism in climate and industrial policy.
