The main annual event I'm organizing these days is outdoors so air filtration isn't a factor.

I organize community events and I'm very keen to figure out how to make it safe but antigen tests are all we (broadly speaking) have access to OTC and I was told it would be pointless to ask attendees to test with them.

What comfort would testing be if the results aren't all that accurate?

Now that I know about it I want to be there! Might be tough to swing though.

I can try to help

This is true. More people need to discover this trilogy!

The NDP actually*does* have a shitty centrist wing. It's been in control of the party for decades.
