Pence promised over a million tests by the end of this week, but currently it’s looking like that number will actually be in the tens of thousands, and widespread testing is still days to weeks away.Trump is currently working on that with the two largest laboratory providers in North America. Tests should be available in a matter of days if not hours.
Remarks by Vice President Pence at a Coronavirus Briefing with Diagnostic Lab CEOs | The White House
Pretty sure in that first briefing with Trump, Pence, and the gaggle of CDC people they said they expected more people in the US to get infected and the numbers to go up. Perhaps you have selective hearing and hear what you want to hear.
Remember, your crowd was calling Trump a racist when he floated an idea of restricting travel to/from China back in mid-January. Hope you guys didn't tear a muscle shifting positions so quickly.
Your complaints are so dumb. You think these people in your scenario are going to quarantine themselves until the labs get back to them?
Additionally, is someone going to come find them and emphatically state when each person is no longer contagious and thus can resume life?
You are an effing baby.
What is your goal here with all of the coronavirus Trump hate? You're not going to change one single vote to dementia man or crazy Bernie
If anybody was calling him racist over travel bans to China this is the first I'm hearing of that. If anyone did say that, I'd want to see the context and who they were.
Depends on how long to get the result. If its a few days and the doctor suspects it, yes, I think a lot of people would self quarantine until they knew.

Just idiots on Twitter, the usual suspects. In their minds, Trump was using this as an excuse for authoritarian crackdown until about a week and a half ago, then when the stock market started going down (all of a sudden they started caring about stock market declines too, even though only the top 1% own stocks) all of a sudden he was deemed to be way behind the curve.If anybody was calling him racist over travel bans to China this is the first I'm hearing of that.

At the national level my main complaint is the lack of preparedness and lack of testing (the farts are mostly just funny). At the local level here it is pretty damn chaotic and we’ve done a piss poor job of containment. I can provide anecdotes if you like. I hadn’t accused anyone of putting politics over public health, I’m just noting the overall incompetence.Please elaborate. Other than the State Department employee(s) that brought sick people back on an airplane with healthy people, haven't most of the "real" steps followed sound scientific procedures? The CDC and the local politicians seem to be making sounds moves. Yes politicians are involved and they are so full of it that occasionally a fart comes out the wrong in and everyone gets to make hay, but I don't think anyone is putting politics over public health at this point.
His goal? I just bumped his 26 month old thread that claimed he'd be out of office soon.What is your goal here with all of the coronavirus Trump hate? You're not going to change one single vote to dementia man or crazy Bernie

Okay so you weave your narrative into whatever is the crisis of the day and determine that is why Trump needs to go. Take your one vote and use it.If anybody was calling him racist over travel bans to China this is the first I'm hearing of that. If anyone did say that, I'd want to see the context and who they were.

Jebus Christmas! I'm not saying people should vote against Trump because of coronavirus. I do think his generally incompetent manner of handling things, his constant lying, his making up facts that make him feel better about himself, and his egomaniacal refusal to admit bad facts is a reason he ought to be voted out ASAP, yes.
You're right, he can't win but truthfully Trump should stay in his lane on this and defer the opinions to the people with letters behind their names. Politicians commenting on public health matters is a recipe for misinformation that will result in further distrust of the .gov.
