How does a tiny country like Slovakia have enough capacities to test all those people on one weekend?

where there's a will, there's a way.

 

 

but these used for this nationwide testing are antigen tests, (yes, sure, not the most accurate, but still accurate to reveal many asymptomatic pacients and send them into isolation with their relatives, stoping them to spread the virus and tilt the curve down in hope to save as many lives as it is possible, considering our tiny hospital capacities). the state bought them two weeks ago from South Korea only for this purpose, around 13 millions by 4 EUR a piece.

 

5000 Testing stations (copied the 5000 voting stations of the country) were open both on Saturday and Sunday from 7 AM to 10 PM. People were called to attend their respective station by alphabetical order of their surnames,. 20.000 health workers performed the tests, 10 thousands of Army forces and Police assisted to kept order.

Canadian broadcasting legend Alex Trebek has died :( 

I watched a lot of Jeopardy growing up. I’ll miss hearing his voice on that program.

    • Ooooooh the group of Canada , they play in Toronto then Vancouver ...look at the distance   
    • now the shooting sport takes a little Christmas break and the new season resumes in January with the Asian Championships for the Shotgun specialists ( Doha, Jan. 11th through 22nd)   the World Cup will be back in late March, beginning in  Tangiers (March 25th through April 3rd, Shotgun specialists only)   the Rifle and Pistol specialists will start their new season with the European 10m Championships in  Yerevan (Feb. 27th through March 5th) and the 1st World Cup stage for them will be in  Granada in April (5th through 13th)   300m, 25m and 50m European Champs will be in  Osijek (May 30th through June 21st), meanwhile the Shotgun European Champs will be held in  Athens from Sept. 27th through Oct. 13th
    • Rare thing not to see Hancock winning gold. 
    • USA will.play in California then Seattle then California ...why hell this long distance , teams should stay in 1 place , this is tiring even for spectators 
    • so, the 2025 season is officially over, after the World Cup Finals have been completed with the Shotgun events, where (once again!!!) a new format for the final stage of each event has been experimented for the first time (before it becomes a regular feature in the next season)   the new format enlarge the starting field in each event's final stage to 8 shooters and dramatically shortens the number of target shots to decide the placings   the only characteristic remaining is the progressive eliminations principle   now, as written above, 8 shooters make the final, where after only 12 targets the eliminations start: by then, the last 2 shooters must leave the competition (7th and 8th ranked)   after 12 more targets (24 in total), 2 more shooters have to leave the final (5th and 6th ranked)   then, the crazy carousel starts: every 4 targets we have a new elimination  so, after 28 targets, the 4th ranked shooter is done; after 32 targets the bronze medallist is known and after only 36 targets (provided there's no need for a shoot-off), compared to the previous 60, the gold and silver medallists are crowned   I guess the tiktok people with the attention span of a chinchilla have won once again
