He wants a $100 million program to test *everyone* in the

person could be negative today but go out and become
infected tomorrow.Â* He is proposing this to make sure
we can "open" the country/economy again.
I think I heard that so far 5 million people have been
tested in the USA and this is after a herculean effort
to get more test machines and test kits distributed.
How the hell does he expect to test *everyone* biweekly
as a condition for people to go back to work?
I am not even sure if it would be legal to mandate the
tests.
Make that "$100 *billion* program, not $100 million.
