I think the complaints about the lack of Test Kits
in the USA is a lot of noise but may not be as
meaningful as it would seem.

We are reminded daily that South Korea produced kits
and tests 20,000 people *daily*.

Yet, South Korea has 7,979 confirmed cases of coronavirus
(and still rising) in a population of 51.5 million.

The USA with a shortage of kits is only testing 200-300
people a day.Â* Yet, with a population over 6 times that
of South Korea, the USA has about 1,600 confirmed cases.

How is the availability of test kits helping South Korea?

Other factors and initiativesÂ* in the USA seem to be
more successful.

Someone with a science background would know there aren't enough
test kits/results in the USA to determine anything yet.

But I am sure the Trumpsters appreciate your never-ending asskissing.

My question is what do the tests accomplish that following the
recommendations of the medical and scientific community doesn't?

That is a completely absurd response.

Why is that?

Patient with cough, fever and shortness of breath calls doctor.
Doctor says, "you need to self-quarantine" for 14 days.Â* If it
gets worse, call me again."

Patient with cough, fever and shortness of breath visits doctor
and has a "Test".Â* Test is positive.

Doctor then says, "you need to self-quarantine for 14 days.
If it gets worse, call me again."

Patient with cough, fever and shortness of breath visits doctor
and has a "Test".Â* Test is negative.

Doctor then says, "you don't have the coronavirus now but please
follow all the recommendations of the medical/scientific community,
limiting your exposure to large crowds.Â* But, it's still very
possible you'll end up becoming infected."

What did the test accomplish?

Simply:

1. Your "diagnosis" covers more than the corona ailment. Waiting 14 days
might hide an illness and result in more serious condition. Seeing the
doctor for a test might help determine the ailment.*

2. You cannot keep track of an ailment like corona without accurate
statistics.

3. If there is a large outbreak in a particular geo area, you want to
send resources there. The test results help determine that.

* Cough, which may produce greenish, yellow or even
bloody mucus.
Fever, sweating and shaking chills.
Shortness of breath.
Rapid, shallow breathing.

DIAGNOSIS: PNEUMONIA.

But stay at home for 14 days...

Most people who are not special like you probably can't get in to see
a doctor for 14 days anyway, particularly now.

The practice I visit has three large offices in the area, its own large
office building, and a patient can always get a same day appointment. We
got a memo about care during TrumpCorona, but I havenÂ’t read it yet. Maybe
things are different in Flyover, Florida.

Calling this "TrumpCorona" is yet another example of the stupidity of
the left. Congrats.

Kinda hoping the name sticks...

The name that will stick is all of the kids born next winter as a
result of people being locked in their house with no sports to watch.

"Coronials"

Yup. I think you're right!

Not sure about the name, but definitely going to be a batch of kids. Like
9 months after the great Northeast blackout.
