It’s 50 million tests a day not 50,000!,,

Quoting right from the article (you can scroll back up and read it yourself):

“The majority of these tests have been sent to outbreak hotspots and we've asked that customers prioritize front-line health care workers and first responders. We're currently manufacturing 50,000 tests per day, plan to increase ID NOW manufacturing capacity to 2 million tests a month by June and are working to expand beyond that.”<\i>

Now that I've highlighted and underlined the number, do you still see 50 million per day, or 50 thousand per day?

So once they've ramped up to manufacturing 2 million tests per month:

330,500,000 citizens / 2,000,000 tests/month = 165.25 months, or 13.77 years to test us all once. And this is why they've "asked that customers prioritize front-line health care workers and first responders." (another quote right from the article you can scroll back and read for yourself)

We're not all getting tested, not any time soon anyway.

As at today they are producing 50,000 testing kits every single day that makes it 1.5 million tests a month. That is at right now not in June or July.
2. The US has already conducted 3.1 million tests. That is vastly more than any other country on the planet. It's not like the US only started testing today.
3. In addition to the tests mention in this article, Abbott Labs is also making this portable rapid diagnostic testing equipment that carries out 4 tests per hour. That equipment was shown on Tucker Carlson a couple of nights ago right here:

4. Abbott Labs is just one one company making coronavirus testing equipment. There are at least 10 more firms that I have seen mentioned in the news if not more. that are currently making coronavirus testing equipment

And and soon everyone who needs a test will get it.
You talk like every single person in the 330 population USA has to have a test. THEY DON'T.
Has everyone in the US had an AIDS test for example despite AIDS having been around for close to 40 years? Of course not!
Like any other disease, you get tested when you show symptoms I don't see why hundreds of millions of extremely healthy young men and women should go rushing to hospitals for coronavirus tests.
