How do you know what we’re doing with positive cases? We have a contact tracing operation that can handle 1000 cases a day, well above what we’re seeing. Yes we aren’t sealing people into their homes like in China, but we’re also not just sitting on our hands.[/quote]

Because we are running out of testing capacity.  It is taking people up to 5-7 days now to get test results back and since cases are exploding elsewhere, I don't see that improving any time soon.

You can't reopen a society and include schools, buses, etc. at the rate of spread we have, without rapid testing, and we don't have that and won't have that.  90% mask wearing will help some but mathematically it will not be enough.  [/quote]

You’re talking about different things.

No one has rapid tests. Yes it’s necessary, but I’m not aware of any country that has ACCURATE rapid tests.

As for contact tracing—aka dealing with outbreaks when they’re identified—yes we are doing that.[/quote]

Wait, what?   No one is able to get test results within 2-3 days?   I'm not talking about stat testing.
