“So sue me,” Dr. Fauci explained.
WHY is it taking so darned long?
Why?
What the heck?
That’s right, Doc. Time to kicks some rears into gear.
Debbie Blabbermouth’s greasy disgusting lice-infested hair is a bigger public health threat than the corona virus!
The WH should ditch the other 8-9 jokers that fill up the stage to give Academy Award type speeches and go with just the Doc here. Let him answer honestly and freely - admit screwups (like this test situation), point to progress and lend hope for the future.
Coming from the MSDNC! Enough said!! NothingButCrap!
So fire him already. I think the reason that supporters don’t blame Trump is that we know government employees are incompetent. He’s the only thing that works in government.....
This is going to be an unpopular opinion here, but this issue was critical enough for Trump to get personally involved and ensure the tests were distributed. The fact that we’re still struggling to make that happen is not a good reflection on him or his administration. He needs to get this turned around, rapidly.
I’ve been a huge supporter of Pres Trump, but this is very disappointing.
Just a quick question, how many were sent in to be tested?
Could it be just a tad over 11,000?
"The question came a week after a nurse exposed to the virus in northern California said in a statement through National Nurses United."
I am hearing a prog supporting Union here...

Yeah, she actually said this...
"They said they would not test me because if I were wearing the recommended protective equipment, then I wouldn't have the coronavirus. What kind of science-based answer is that?" the nurse said.
.
The one comfort I take from this...
It’d be a heck of a lot worse if the dems were in charge.
The clinic I work in is free to run all of the corona virus tests we want. No CDC or state health department approval needed.
I’m curious.. why can we do better and get the tests out across the country?
Isn’t Dr Fauci in charge of the national agency (National Institutes of Health, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases) that is supposed to be on top of getting the test kits done?
Or is there no one boss for that job, no “Czar” for it, and instead we had the left hand (some bureaucrat(s)) needing to get permission from the right hand (some other bureaucrat(s) to move the process one more step ahead, until its done????
How did South Korea do it. It was not the South Korean government. It was two national agencies, one in charge of making the test kits but needing approval of them from another agency. The U.S. people need to be reminded of exactly how South Korea got its test kits going, when the Dims demand a whole new national agency for it because our two federal agencies fell down on the job.
Here is how South Korea got its test kits:

I thought debbie resigned from congress.
CDC has only done 77 test since March 5th.. This is incompetence at the highest level.
Testing kits? Whining about this crap? How many kits caught the flu that has already killed 10,000 Americans this year so far?
Oh yeah, NONE!
Calm the F down crybaby.
The influenza flu can be diagnosed within an hour but that's been around for decades. This is a new virus that has been thrown at us and it's going to take time before immediate testing protocols can be in place.
What good does it do to get tested? To tell you that you may get sick?
Looking at Trump’s tweets it is interesting that he retweeted this article. While Trump is no doubt well aware of CDC incompetence, I think there has probably been a lot of testing done behind the CDC’s back. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-03-12/a-berlin-biotech-company-got-a-head-start-on-coronavirus-tests?utm_medium=social&utm_content=businessweek&utm_source=twitter&cmpid=socialflow-twitter-businessweek&utm_campaign=socialflow-organic
