tested once a day.

It could be something he did for a set period of time and then dropped it.

And stopped asking visitors whether they have covid symptoms? And stopped requiring masks near him?

I think they either got lazy, believed their own hype, or decided they needed to LOOK like the virus is nothing. Or some combo.

Or ran out of tests.
