This Washington Post article digs into the details for why the United States did not have enough kits in order to have early detection of the virus here in this country and then be able to use public health containment measures to reduce the spread of the virus, What went wrong with the coronavirus tests in the U.S.
The end result is that now 1 million kits have been shipped six weeks late. You can expect the number of COVID-19 cases to expand exponentially by the end of this week. We will be looking at thousands of cases, if not tens of thousands.
I expect more drastic measures to be taken by the federal government.
