September 1, 2020September 1, 2020Erik Linask

With the U.S. having now passed the 6 million confirmed COVID-19 case mark, it’s clear we’re nowhere near the end of this pandemic, especially with schools opening and more businesses bringing people back to workplaces.  The increase in movement and activity brings with it increased risk, creating an incumbent need for organizations to closely monitor […]

August 12, 2020August 12, 2020Erik Linask

Two months ago, GM rapidly transformed its Warren, Michigan plant into a PPE production facility.

Since You Have to Wear a Mask, Make it a Comfortable One

August 4, 2020August 4, 2020Erik Linask

Nobody likes wearing a mask.  If anyone tells you they do, they’re not being honest.  They may have gotten used to it, but that’s not the same as liking it.  But, masks are going to be part of our lives for the foreseeable future as we continue to deal with COVID-19 while trying to continue […]

Can Tech Drive Faster COVID-19 Test Results?

July 22, 2020July 22, 2020Erik Linask

Testing, and more testing – that’s what it’s coming down to.  As the number of cases continues to climb in the U.S. and is about to reach the 4 million mark, clearly re-opening policies aren’t working and too many people are simply ignoring health protocols.  The only answer is to continue to ramp up testing […]

So here we are, another day into the COVID-19 pandemic but not knowing much more than we have for the past few months.  The WHO put out a statement about asymptomatic carriers – then later retracted it.  About all we know the U.S. is about to go over the 2 million confirmed case mark, which […]
