Do you know that up until last week Pasadena, California
didn’t have adequate testing facilities up and running?
The day in question was the 18th.

I have a family member in the health care industry and also
working with schools, who needed to be tested. They had to
wait 24 hours before they opened up a facility.

He was tested and waited four days for the results.

You lighten up Frances.

The CDC failed this nation. Government regulations
prevented the private sector from stepping in to pick up
the slack for a period of time.

"The CDC failed this nation."

Militarize the CDC. Treat it like the Coast guard - under DHS during peace time, moved to DoD during war/emergency. Appoint Birx the first commander; re-commission and promote her to general.

Treat Friday 3/13 as Pearl - re-invent our entire bio early warning/detection/response system. A bio-NORAD if you will. Incorporate integrated rapid response/resource allocation via x-agency/x-state/local mechanisms for actual incoming bio-terror attacks.

This shit should never happen again.
