"Stanford Medicine is seeking volunteers for a study of an at-home test, that’s designed to cost $5 or less, use no electricity and provide fast and accurate results.

Developed with support from the Stanford Medicine Catalyst Program, the test was invented by Manu Prakash, PhD, associate professor of bioengineering, and his group. It involves little more than boiling some water, reading some instructions and spitting into a funnel.

The test takes no more than 10 minutes to self-administer and is designed to detect the presence or absence of SARS-CoV-2 in saliva within 30 minutes, with an accuracy rate similar to that of the clinical tests performed in hospitals. A color display will appear yellow if there’s a coronavirus infection or pink if there’s not. Prakash estimates the kit’s retail cost, if the test is approved, will be as low as $5 — and perhaps closer to $1."

I did as well.  I expect that I don’t have enough contacts to make it worthwhile for them.

Tomorrow I am going to the office for the first time since March.  I got a notice that PG&E will be working on one of the poles on the street and that they need to cut power from 10-3.  During the fires, my company established a program for people who had to evacuate their homes or whose power was being cut-off.  We will see how it goes.
