The economy won't be re-opened till there is mass testing, with only 39,000 tests out of 100 million Filipinos.

On another note:
Yesterday the price of oil went below zero for a short time. On the May futures market oil is 10.01 USD per barrel. June delivery is $11.57 USD per barrel.

Agreed : 'OIL'...I've never seen anything like this in my lifetime nor has it ever happened before!

Almost never. It dropped to about 10 cents in the 30s for a while, but there has never been anything like this. I'll bet the oil producing countries are absolutely bricking it at the moment. However, it has shown environmentalist may have a point.

If anyone fancies exploring that sort of subject further, HERE would be the best place to start a discussion.

On topic - Mass virus testing, IMHO, is a bit of a waste of time as a negative in the morning could easily be positive by lunchtime.
The only way is to test everyone every day (or maybe once a week), and that's impossible at the moment.

Pro rata that's probably about the same as the USA

WRONG

For all those that are negative, they been negative since the beginning, weeks, weeks and more weeks. Now if they been negative since the beginning, probably by following all the safe instructions.

So after all this time they are going to throw all those safe practices to the wind and get infected between breakfast and lunch.

Work in progress!
Rectifying earlier lapses!
Maybe praying to our 'SUN GOD' too!

I would presume that the US figs should be pretty accurate.

No hope because the vast majority of people have not been tested, will never be tested, and many of the dead weren't tested because nobody expected the death to be caused by a pretty well unknown bug. Add deaths put down to flu that could have been covid19, and flu deaths thought to be covid before accurate testing, and you have a statistical soup that's been well processed and ready for flushing.
That applies to every country, not just one.

Historians will argue about the numbers for years, but it's unlikely anyone will ever get it right.
