4 -  When might we see a widespread rollout of anti-body testing? (5:50)

5 -  Is there any timeframe for having a reliable antibody test on the market/ (7:40)

12 -  I've heard that if a person has the virus, wearing a mask will protect others, but if they don't have the virus, wearing a mask won't protect them from someone that has it.  Is that true? (22:40)

13 - Will the state do anything to keep trailheads from being packed with people this weekend? (24:15)
