Also, even our too-expensive tests are not that expensive, so the cost of claims processing here relative to the cost of the underlying tests is going to be enormous.

True for covid tests, true for all health care.2. So a cashier who wants to be sure some unvaxxed shopper in the supermarket where she works hasn't infected her (and wants to be sure her kids are fine) is supposed to spend a hundred of dollars a week on antigen tests and then...send the receipts to her friendly insurer?
