The cdc does the majority of the testing... that is the federal response. Thats been available. Illinois has turned up a few labs capable of teating the samples. There arent "test kits". State level testing is a state responsibility, not federal. So yes, washington state did fuck this up willfully.

Wow. According to that article, they won't actually have test kits until the end of "next week". So we probably won't see much change in the numbers for the US until that time. At least you can get an app for that:  https://apps.nbcnews.com/mobile/ bp

There is supposed to be about 90+ labs in the US ready to do the test on Monday. I wonder how many false positives these tests kick out. Some of the tests are based on PCR so they should be pretty good. From: Ken Hohhof Sent: Sunday, March 1, 2020 8:37 AM To: 'AnimalFarm Microwave Users
