South Korea currently tests about 10,000 people per day, and the virus is slowing,
The US tests less than 200 per day, because we don’t have test kits distributed. We can not get more test kits because the administration cut the health budget each of the last two years,. And, the virus is spreading, Even in the nursing home in Seattle where many have died, they can not get test kits to test those remaining Tuesday alive.
This is incompetence- and it kills,
We now have had more than a month to prepare to defend our people against the spreading virus. The U.S. still is not responding at the necessary level because the Trump government is spending its energy and time managing perceptions to influence the stock market. See the statement by the nurse’s union.
They have not used emergency authority available to them to mass produce masks and test kits. They also need to be preparing auxiliary hospitals for the coming surge !
This is incompetence. People will die because of the incompetence. I hope that it is not you or a member of your family.

Many businesses, including Facebook and Amazon, have postponed most employee travel altogether.
