I posted an email from a hospital with a few thousand patients a day.
Im telling you that urgent care places are referring folks to hospitals. Telling them dont come to our facility. Go there.
They go and no testing.
Lets assuje your theory is correct and what you described is the national norm.
Do you actually believe only 77 people wanted to be tested in the past week?
More likely (per a poster response here) they are out of a key ingridienr to test and are lying to the public to prevent panic.
It is a failing. Let’s admit it,’ Fauci says of coronavirus testing capacity
“The system is not really geared to what we need right now,” Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said at a House hearing.
An admission is first step to correction. This verified the premise of my thread. Thanks to those that responded with useful info.
