yes. If you could get a quick test then it would take away that stress a bit. Obviously if

its positive then that would still be stressful but at least you would know what it is and that once you are through it you can move on.

I really hope they are able to develop a test which tells you retrospectively whether you've had it. If this is going to be around for a while then that seems like one of the most important things they can develop (if its possible and I suppose if its established you can't get it twice) so that society can return to some form of normality.
