lauradi7dwI tested yesterday using a Binax. Negative. I tested today using Flowflex. Negative. So was the positive for Covid outcome on one of the two Walgreen's brand Covid + Flu A + Flu B test my fault? I wouldn't guess it was a badly made test because they were both in the same box, presumably made at the same time in the same factory, but who knows?
Question: Why does every different test brand require a different number of drops of the reagent or whatever it is? Porosity of the test stick?
At the advice of an even-more-cautious than me friend, I am still going to isolate another couple of days. That is an inconvenience for a variety of ways, including a somewhat odd one. The Stop Massport from letting ICE use their airports folks want letters written to the governor and the Massport board. I couldn't get the links to work to do it online. They suggest that it works better if one puts a paper letter in an envelope with a stamp. I am willing to do that, but I don't have a printer at home - I use the library to print things. My handwriting is not good enough to write the long, complicated letters they suggest, although I could shorten things.

I have sent email messages in a fury to my elected folks (Rep Clark, Senators Markey & Warren, useless loudmouths Schumer and Booker) saying we don't want "accountability" (Clark's term) or better body cams (Booker and Shumer), we want ICE gone entirely. The Senate spending bill for DHS is coming up soon.
