    I remember one of my political opponents here, hoping that Trump tested positive, after it was revealed he was near a positive case. So there is that.

    You'll have to ask those countries. As far as why the CDC/'WHO could not create tests in time, who knows. But to blame this on the President, is just absolutely absurd.(Absurd, but we should expect it at this point.)

    The lack of critical thinking inside of my own country, depresses me intellectually.

    Unless Dr. Fauci is an expert on Pathological Lying, that he can diagnose Trump, it doesn't apply here.

    Fact is anybody in this administration knows that, if they want to keep their jobs, they better not rub Trump the wrong way. So what would he gain by saying that it was Trump's fault? Especially since everybody already knows that it was in part the consequence of poor leadership.

    This is about a hiccup in the covid19 test kit supply, not your pathological fixation with smearing the President. As for their jobs, I'd venture that all of them could find a job in the private sector for more money and less stress. It also stands to reason that when any administration presents a united front, it is for the cause of peace and progress towards a common goal. Fauci btw, has served under six Presidents.

    Because their first batches did not have a bad reagent.

    "There [weren’t] any bad guys there. It just happened," Fauci said. "And then when we realized, when the CDC realized, and the FDA [Food and Drug Administration] said both the system itself as it was set up, which serves certain circumstances very well, was not well-suited to the kind of broad testing that we needed the private sector to get involved in."

    And thankfully we have the best in the world to correct this mistake on the government level and Trump showed the proper leadership and fast tracked that private sector involvement.

    Really? Talking about a big lie being spread. Trump, The Bushes, Reagan, each and everyone of them, along with the whole conservative movement,with their lip service to Capitalism and their ass-kissing of Socialism have led to this unprecedented calamity. May they burn in hell, along with their offspring, the nationalists and the Religious Right, and their twin sister, the Liberals.

    The capitalists save us again from bureaucratic blundering. The best thing government can do is get the hell out of the way.

    • 10-minute test for coronavirus exposure utilizing blood from a finger prick can be performed anywhere by trained professionals, e.g. airports, schools, work, doctor’s office
    • Biomerica has begun shipping samples of this COVID-19 test to multiple Ministries of Health and government agencies that have requested the product through the Company’s distributors in the Middle East, Europe, and other countries
    • Price point of this single-use, disposable product as low as $10 per patient
    • Biomerica has filed a provisional patent on rapid test technology to identify multiple coronavirus strains including the strain responsible for COVID-19

    Want to save the world from poverty, disease, despair? Hire the capitalists, they know how to make money.
