Guessing if they tested the entire student body - the number of positives would be 5x that

but since they are only testing students that show some level of symptoms and come in for treatment - the actual number is somewhat irrelevant

Doctors in Texas can prescribe it. Mine does.

But that won’t stop the spread because the vast majority of people have little to no symptoms and don’t require treatment
