We can all agree the CDC and FDA are useless when shit need to get done fast. |

Good thing the CDC took all that time to develop its own test, which was then recalled because it didn’t work (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4460844&forum_id=2#39698366) |

But why are states hamstrung by the CDC. Can't they just contact Beijing directly and ask for some tests to use as a backup. I know that sounds ridiculous but if the governor of NY called Xi, which wouldn't be so crazy and would make Trump look foolish, I'm sure he could get some test kits. |

It is insane though how unprepared we were relative to other countries wrt testing....
I mean holy fuck - whose decision was that to reject an available test and delay (which meant delays of local surveillance testing) testing until they built a completely new one? wtf..... |
