Just watched the Monday briefing. So the US is now able to perform 2 million tests per week. Very impressive figures for the uninformed viewer.
At the present rate that means only 17 weeks or a third of a year to test just one tenth of the US population, and that's for only one test per person.
This rate being bragged about is only a quarter of what is needed.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Aaaannnddd it is a flat LIE, because even if they could perform the (non-existent) tests, processing them quickly in those numbers is far beyond our capabilities. And if you cannot process them VERY quickly, and get the results to the testers, it is all for nothing since you could get infected on the way home from getting the test...it is Not like AIDS testing, where you knew you had unprotected sex.
