It makes no sense. I dont understand this test kit problem at all. Its unacceptable and inexcusable.
If you dont test it and find it, then no one will know it is there. We dont want to panic the masses, dont you know!
Thats the only explanation I can come up with.
If you know 80% of cases will be mild...
Why bother counting the cases? It just gets the people riled.
