How long can you stand the heat?

The window doesn't open, and the fan is broke,
And my face is turnin' blue.
I haven't been in a crowd like this
Since I went to see The Who.
Well, I should'a got off a couple miles ago,
But I couldn't get to the door.
There isn't any room for me to breathe.
Now we're gonna pick up more, yeah!

Testing Spam.

Dear friend,

As is well known, the reagents for virus detection are facing serious shortage situation in many countries and it will take at least $1400 USD/ per person for the coronavirus detection. As result, there are a large number of people who have already show some symptom cannot be detected. Not to mention those asymptomatic infections, they might be the close contacts who remaining undetectable and are potential risks to person around them. To avoid this bad situation, I would like to recommend a test kit for COVID for you. Compared with $1400 USD test cost per person, the test kit we have is only $298 USD per box, and each box contains 25 pcs of test cassette which can be applied to 25 person.

You can tell the result within 15 minutes using this test kit by identifying where the result shows, as indicates negative, positive and uncertain position. The accuracy of the result is more than 95% and it is made by the National Military Research Institute. Most importantly, this test kits is the one that recently donated to Iran by China government.

Should this test kit be of your interest, please let me know. My Email is: [REMOVED]
