you need responds very, very fast. and in such settings, it may be acceptable to work with a little bit less the curacy and listens to ditty. and that's how these tests have been designed as well. so tests also have a package insert like a drug, like a prescription drug. and it's very clear that these tests have been designed to detect virus in people who are symptomatic and within a certain time window. and those are all in students where these tests are not extremely good at the moment. in the broadest screening, where people are generally asymptomatic, they look and feel healthy, where they could still be infected. and with these people and especially the road test, do not have a very hard sensitivity and we recommend p.c.r. testing should be done instead. but increasingly seeing mass testing programs being carried out in various parts of the world, is that an effective way of actually defeating coronavirus? is it just telling you where seeds? well, it's a different quality of the program. it's not the continuous pe

so i see it as a time when americans are saying we need to make changes in this country and we need toake the kinds of changes that -- that increase opportunities it touches people's lives so for me it means it is -- mandate to joe biden and kamala harris to do the things we can do. to cancel student loan debt for tens of millions of americans. single biggest stimulus we could add to the economy. put investment in child care because we can do it. raise the minimum wage for everybody who works for a federal contractor to $15 an hour. get the pandemic and the economy under control. so i think they've got a pretty clear agenda in front of them it is huge. but a lot of tools in their tool box and a lot that they can do. so get out there and do as much good as you can. that's my view on it. >> i want to dig on all of these things and ask you about one comment because it does get at this issue of how much a mandate there really is in this regard -- this is the comment made reportedly by congressman abigail stand burger of virginia you may have read this before she said we lost races we shoul
