You and I are going to have to agree to disagree. That would be like
every state negotiating their own tariffs internationally. Sorry but
United States MEANS coordination at a national level. They should have
set up a means to determine need and then sent what wasn't available to
nowhere. Come ON there was no prep for this, nothing at a national
level. Our Federal government has been a joke through all this and is
become more so. The CDC sent out initial test kits that the states had
to go behind their back to determine that they didn't work. The CDC
had gotten it's pandemic response group removed a year ago. Steve, you
are about to have the worst of the worst in your location. I surely
hope you come out ok, but wouldn't it have been nice to have _some_
national preparedness?

you saw what happened with the "united states" on ventilators, every state
demanded the feds give them every ventilator whether they need them or
not. The feds need to stay completely out of the testing game. its
literally the governor of each states responsibility to make sure he has
people in place to make sure systems operate and communicate up the chain

At the risk of breaking Lent.. I wish we were the United States
instead of the Competing States and Utah could use some of it's
excess capacity to help out elsewhere while they don't need it...
Seems a waste to not use that capacity while it's there. Maybe
relax the restrictions and chase down contacts and test to see what
the asymptomatic case profile looks like...

That's some very interesting numbers... And way interesting is
the ability to perform such good testing...

From Utah:
SALT LAKE CITY — Utah health officials said Monday they’re seeing
a low demand for testing for the new coronavirus and they don’t
know why.
“That’s the million-dollar question. We’re really trying to
figure out,” said Dr. Angela Dunn, epidemiologist with the Utah
Department of Health.
Utah reported 60 new confirmed cases of COVID-19 on Monday — a
smaller rise compared to the previous several days. The new cases
bring the state’s tally up to 2,363 confirmed cases out of 45,787
people tested.
An additional 1,500 people have been tested since Sunday,
according to the Utah Department of Health. The state is capable
of administering up to 5,000 tests per day.
