Our fucking CDC really screwed the pooch here. They didn't test people when the virus first started showing up here. Not sure if it was due to lack of tests, politics, whatever. But they entirely fucked up containment. Every single ED doc has had cases that could have been COVID 19. Every single one of those patients should have been tested. Instead, the CDC help to their guns and only tested cases that were so likely to be COVID 19 that you almost didn't need to test. We only got 70,000 tests nationwide, but up until a week ago we only used 500 with millions more on the way. We entirely fucked up containment.
