He's the sanest voice out there. Certainly better than a couple of doctors on the internet that run a clinicFauci isn't the be all, end all to this pandemic.
There's a pretty simple, yet self-defeating, reason for Trump not to be promoting testing. Remember how he didn't want those folks on a cruise ship to leave the ship because it meant the number of COVID cases in the US would go up. He didn't give a shit about getting treatment for people or relieving their anxiety. He just saw higher numbers as bad for him.
So too with more testing. Would it save lives? Undoubtedly yes. Will it result in more confirmed cases? Yes. It's pretty clear what Capt. Clorox's misguided priorities are............even though more testing will ultimately lead to a safer, more sustainable re-opening of the economy.
He just SAID it the other day
"More tests...more cases" ..."Less tests less cases". The "cases" will still be there...we just won't KNOW it without tests
We already have the capability to test everyone with symptoms and all at risk people.
We do NOT have that capability...nor would it be enough if we did.
When all nursing home residents can be tested...when doctors and nurses can be tested once a week...and when we can test randomly in mass...THEN we'll have enough testing
