     "We expect the FDA to approve a new antibody test in a matter of days," Pence said. "And if approved, [we] could literally create more than 20 million new tests a month ... that’ll be a test that will tell you whether you have had the coronavirus in the past and whether you might in fact be immune to it going forward."

    Even trump's business leaders are telling him testing before reopening. I totally agree. Meanwhile there is this that will help a lot.

    Exxon boosts production of materials for masks, gowns, sanitizer

    Apr. 15, 2020 12:02 PM ET|About: Exxon Mobil Corporation (XOM)|By: Carl Surran, SA News Editor

    Exxon Mobil (XOM -6.8%) says it is increasing production of the raw materials needed to make medical masks, gowns and hand santizer for medical personnel and first responders to help combat COVID-19.

    Exxon says it has increased capability to manufacture specialized polypropylene, used in masks and gowns, by about ~1K tons/month, enough to enable production of as many as 200M masks or 20M gowns.

    The company also has lifted production of isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) by 3K tons, enough to enable output of as many as 50M four-oz. bottles of medical-grade hand sanitizer.

    The additional polypropylene will be made at its sites in Baytown, Tex.; Baton Rouge, La.; and Singapore, while production of rubbing alcohol is being maximized at its Baton Rouge site.

  • I went to a small Indian run convenience store today and they had masks and hand sanitizer for sale.  Thank you Biden.
