Tests are free in the rest of the world and so is the hospital treatment if needed. How can you guage the extent of the problem if you are not testing folk ?Back to my original critique. How is South Korea testing 10k a day while we’ve done 10k total? And why does it take 4 days in some casesI disagree. If somebody feels sick they should get tested and that process should be quick and easyA young person with a sniffle can give a death hug to their grandparents. You get that right?
And your wrong about testing... getting tested quickly and easily can calm fears and identify those who need to be treated. I promise you a ton of people out there with a cough or allergy attack are getting very worried about the what if’s.
The test then becomes worthless after because a person can get infected 30 seconds after the test is administered. That's why blanket testing is worse than doing nothing.
If they feel sick. And the problem is a "sniffle" can be due to allergies, especially this time of year. Then you have to worry about not only the number of tests availible, but the number of people able to administer them.
Probably because we centralize our testing via the CDC, and the federal nature of our system where health issues are a local matter by statute.
Also, getting anything approved in our system via the FDA has always been longer than outside the US.
Socialism wins again.
