[quote=Anonymous]Not to pile on to the CDC, I'm not impressed by the fact that the site reporting testing data, which says it gets updated daily at noon, is still not updated for today (three hours later).  Particularly unimpressive considering that yesterday's data reports no test results since 3/6 -- although state labs have pushed through over 2000 tests since then.  In all, looks like state labs have done about 7200 tests since 2/22, and CDC has done about 1000.  Has CDC just decided it's not doing tests anymore and letting the private and state labs do it?  I guess that's fine, but it would be nice if they'd just say what the plan is.

Also, has anyone heard what the plan is for ramping up production of masks and other PPE, as well as things like oxygen, CPAP, vents, etc.?  Seems like we should be re-tooling factories and coming up with a system of priority distribution for those things, but I haven't seen ANYTHING talking about that.  It's like we can only focus on one thing at a time, and it's still containment.[/quote]
