We probably need at least that many tests every week.

... tested by last name weekly if we could get a quick turn around.

Right now there's capacity but no throughput

... matter if 1 or 2 days have passed cause people stay mobile.

People aren't getting tested and staying in their basement for a week

How difficult it is STILL to get tested in many areas.

Long wait in line ..... long waits for results .... waiting 2 weeks for an appointment to even get a test .... if they are even available or if you “qualify” .....inconsistent and ridiculous charges to pay for the test .... and we have known about this virus for how many months now ..... ?? So much incompetence, it’s absurd.

Dumpy and his enablers make it sound like you can walk into any pharmacy and get a free test right on the spot!!!

With only 83,581 cases---things that make you go "hmm"

And with less than half our population, Russia has done 22 million...Putin's beating you, Donny!

Trust me, it is only reassuring for a fleeting moment. Then you need food, go to the store, and start the Russian Roulette game all over again. When you receive the good news of a negative test, you just want to freeze time and stand there like the end of a 70's sitcom.

Any test that came back negative in May is meaningless in July. Where has that person gone since then, who has s/he been exposed to recently? How many live church services, indoor restaurants, political rallies, house parties, reopened work places, bus rides, elevators, post office lobbies, and crowded beaches etc. have they passed through since their last test?

Testing alone isn’t enough. Useful data yes and many people who test positive may be doing their own contact tracing and notifying them of the need to self quarantine. But with the number of positives setting records almost every day and the high percentages of positive tests show that the virus is way ahead in this race.
