[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]1. Which WHO test are you referring to? 
2. Where exactly are these WHO tests?[/quote]

I am not sure if you are just being argumentative or you really want to know. But a German laboratory developed a coronavirus test that was adopted by the WHO and offered to other countries. The US developed its own test which was initially flawed. I am not sure which countries are using the WHO test now, but I believe Germany is since it was developed there.

Am very interested in more info about this German test. Is there a name to it, or a company name?[/quote]

FDA approved mid-March:  https://www.medtechdive.com/news/coronavirus-roche-test-fda-emergency-use/574073/[/quote]

That perfectly demonstrates the problem. We should have been testing from January. Trump cost us the entire month of February and half of March downplaying the epidemic.

First, part of "reopening" is the testing component you keep talking about.  Nobody is saying we are going to resume normal life tomorrow.  It is a phased approach that involves testing, hospital capacity, PPE and the list goes on. If you heard the FDA said they were doing full contact tracing, etc. our West when this first was discovered in US. Then it got out of hand and they changed course but I believe Washington state continued which is why their numbers are on the lower end. Contact tracing is also part of the reopening plan. Testing every single person every single day is not going to happen nor is it necessary.  I am honestly not sure why you keep saying millions will die and we shouldn't open up parts of the economy with all these things in place.  
Fauci & Birx are not under "political" pressure and said so.  Come on man.[/quote]
