Testing for COVID-19 Via Anal Swabs


 In America we're pretty lucky. Our COVID-19 tests only require reaming of orifices above the belt.  

That's changing in China. They are switching to tests based on anal swabs. This is apparently more accurate than the traditional nasal swabs.

In the near future I fully expect to see a headline that says "China Experiences Acute Shortage of  Sample-Taking Personnel."
