Realistically, if the false positive rate is as high as it sounds like in this article, first responders are eventually going to be forced to ignore the thing. At which point it looses all value anyway

From what I understand, a lot of film & TV projects actually DID take COVID compliance pretty seriously.

You know what's a *little* bit expensive? complying with restrictions from a COVID officer

You know what's a *LOT* expensive? Shutting down your entire production for a couple of weeks because of a COVID outbreak in the core cast (or core crew)
