This is an interesting thread by Dr.Gottlieb.
He is very technical but hes been saying there are alternatives, and the FDA can work with other institutions to roll this out quickly.
I wish someone in the WH would talk to him:

Cryin Chuck Schumer is complaining, for publicity purposes only, that I should be asking for more money than $2.5 Billion to prepare for Coronavirus. If I asked for more he would say it is too much. He didnt like my early travel closings. I was right. He is incompetent

The small number of U.S. cases thus far may be a reflection of limited testing, not of the virus spread.
The virus is beginning to spread locally in countries outside China, but no one knows if thats the case here, because they arent checking.
