    I am in absolute agreement with one small caveat.

    If I can go some place and have the triple test done for like $5 I am totally in. Flu, strep, and Covid are all tests that a run on me and my kids when any of us don’t feel well. (Me when I am just done and can’t move) my kids when they go to the nurses office and I get called to pick them up due to a fever. If this can potentially replace urgent care and get me a prescription to treat me and my kids for one of the minor issues that are tested positive for I’m totally in on that.

    If these tests come back negative then we go to our real doctor and get thing figured out.

    I know this may not be its actual use case. However, I can see this as being a potential benefit. This could potentially provide lower cost care for people who otherwise wouldn’t get their kids tested for any of these things and send them right back to school, continuing the sickness to other students.

    Anything else you talk to a real person.

    (Edit see reply I did as I’m a dumb dumb) but not as dumb as this idea.

      And I commented before reading… I still say my concept would be cool but what they offer is a hard freaking pass.

      Don’t compare medical concepts to a self driving car that still has huge issues that causes deaths.

      Also $100 a month duck off with that bs.

        Your concept is great. Technology should be used to supplement human knowledge and ability, not replace it. Just like with ChatGPT.
