I have been trying to figure out how many tests are actually being done.
From a lengthy zero-hedge article with a virile case of TDS on display:
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/white-house-pledge-deliver-1-million-coronavirus-tests-friday-might-be-997500000-short
Private labs:
The Association of Public Health Laboratories, which represents state and local government laboratories around the country, has said that its labs would be able to conduct about 10,000 tests a day when all of its 100 members that can perform testing are running. Scott Becker, the executive director of the lab association, said Monday that labs can run about 100 tests per day. As of Monday, he said fewer than half of those labs were able to do so.
That shows a capacity of less than 5,000 tests a day.
337 additional C.D.C. test kits were made available for distribution on Tuesday and Wednesday, according to two people on the call and the person briefed on the discussion who were not authorized to discuss it publicly. Each of those tests would cover about 350 people, officials said.
So, the first of these kits was available no earlier than today.
My read--only a handful of tests were done today.
Expect a major ramp up each day this week to a maximum of several thousand tests per day.
Expect the reported case numbers to start exploding by Thursday imho.

President Trump, Sec. Azar, and Tony Fauci announced today the FDA has approved a fast track program to begin Phase 1 dosing trial of a COVID-19 virus in one month. They didn’t name the company involved but it appears to be Inovio Pharma in San Diego from the way their stock soared today. They briefed the President’s team on their proprietary platform that sequenced the virus from the genome provided by the Chinese in 3 days and then synthesized the mRNA chains that produce the vaccine in volume.
They have indicated they can produce 1 million doses by the end of 2020 once they have shown safety and effectiveness in the Phase 1 and 2 clinical trials.
Never underestimate the power of smart people that are liberated to solve problems in Trump time. Thanks Inovio!

Thousands of intensive care patients to be tested for Covid-19
NHS bosses in England ramp up efforts to detect virus amid fears it is circulating in ICUs

Thousands of patients in intensive care will be tested for signs of the coronavirus amid fears that it is circulating among units treating people who are seriously ill in hospital.
Coronavirus latest: at a glance

NHS bosses have ramped up their efforts to detect the virus by ordering all 135 acute hospital trusts in England to routinely test anyone in intensive care units (ICUs) who has a breathing problem.
They are worried that people who are already very sick in hospital with different illnesses could be infected with the virus by a fellow patient.
The plan is a direct response to the detection of Covid-19 in patients in intensive care units in Europe whose illness cannot be traced to any of the areas where the virus is circulating, such as northern Italy. Staff working in these units have also contracted the virus

Oregon has just under 20 confirmed cases of Wuhan flu. They just announced that there are probably 500 undiagnosed cases in Oregon.

Thanks for the new thread.
The "Flue Bros" are going to be interesting to watch over the next couple of weeks.
We already have them rationalizing that the fatalities were people getting old and had a good life. Of course they follow by "what me worry?"
Waiting for the next step (if one) when the "Bros" become infected and pass it on to others who will then suffer severe symptoms.

Would someone help me understand that if this virus is less virulent and has a lower lethality than the flu why I should be overly concerned?
Just let it run it course like the flu.....it will peak quickly and be forgotten by June....
