For those clambering for "Test Kits"Â* Roche Diagnostics
has been issued immediate approval by the FDA to start
distributing a coronavirus test that produces results
faster than those currently in use.

A spokesman for Roache said that they currently have
400,000 kits available for distribution now and
the company can produce 400,000 additional kits
*per week*.

Nice to hear something encouraging and a product of
cooperation between big business and the US Government.



Gotta be a way to make some bucks off of this, right, righties?


We can't make you happy can we. First you bitch about the lack of kits
and a week later when someone starts cranking them out you bitch that
they may actually not take a loss for doing it. I bet they are still a
lot cheaper than a government manufactured kit would be, if the
government was even capable of doing that.
I bet in a month the kits will be in every drug store in the US and
the taxpayer will pay the bill.
