Biden administration struck a deal a German company to build a factory in Wisconsin to increase production of COVID-19 testing kits
MilliporeSigma's new factory will pump out 83.3 million tests per month – but the facility won't be operational for another three years
'Construction is expected to begin the second half of 2022 and initial planning and preparatory work is already underway,' a MilliporeSigma spokesperson said They told DailyMail.com: 'We estimate that the facility will be capable of providing lateral flow membranes in the latter part of 2024'
Fuels speculation the administration thinks testing will still be needed in 2025
Does not fix immediate concerns of testing shortages and hours-long lines to get tested for COVID-19 as the Omicron variant sweeps the nation
Biden caught heat Wednesday with news contracts won't be finished 'until next week' for the 500 million at-home tests that he promised
There are still unanswered questions about how the at-home test distribution will work and how long it will take for the tests to arrive once ordered

The factory will be constructed on the site of a defunct Betamax tape manufacturer.
“You can’t leave your house until you are tested. Oh, by the way, the tests will be available in 2025.”
10% for the big guy and 10% for life printing of mail-in ballots!
President Retard does it again 🤪

So, they plan on this never ending pandemic ruining everyone’s lives. Super.
How much of a kick back is he getting?
Covid will be a bad memory by then.
operation Warped Speed?
There aren’t any American pharmaceutical companies that would be interested in this deal?
There aren’t any ways to get this done faster?
Then there isn’t any point in doing it at all, in my opinion.
Didn’t Puerto Rico manufacture a lot of pharmaceuticals, before TPSB decided that everything should be made in China?
There’s probably even empty factories.
Operation: Slow Joe. What a dimwit!
Money Money Money....
MONEY
So he’ll leave next administration to dump this, so can complain about it
Money Money Money....
MONEY
And the $$$ came from where?
All spending begins in the House.
Democrat infrastructure.
Why couldn’t that have been an American company?

That was exactly my thought. Plus, this bio-weapon virus obviously won’t be going away for a while.
How about increasing production of monoclonal antibody therapeutics?
Unfortunately your proposal makes sense, which means they won’t do it. The pattern is to do everything in favor of more vaccines and vaccine profit, and everything against alternatives. Like monoclonal antibodies. Right now Biden is restricting distribution to red states like Texas.
