I have other MAGA hats slogans that are not suitable for public display … so this one will have to do
The MAGA minions know everything because tRUMP told them so.
Did you know 5 million test kits were sent out last Friday? This guy insists it true.
Fact Check. 950 Covid 19 cases in the nation and as of Friday over 5 million test kits (and that’s just from the feds). So millions of tests for something hopefully very few will get
FACT CHECK indeed! TEST KITS: “test kits” refers to the large batches of materials sent to state public health labs by the CDC. Each test kit contains roughly enough material to test 350 patients, unless otherwise specified by a state health department.
5m x 350 = 1.75B test available? Wow… according to this guy everyone can be tested several times by last week… or maybe he means in 4 days from his tweet.
In reality...
After saying 1 million tests were available March 02, the task force in charge of being CDC liaison with White House pulled back on that statement March 05 because less than 1,000 were carried out. The next day, they said 4 million tests would be available this week ... But in reality…
CDC: ‡ As of March 4, 2020 1,526 patients had been tested at CDC. This does not include testing being done at state and local public health laboratories, which began this week. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cases-in-us.html
Also March 5th:
CDC:† CDC is no longer reporting the number of persons under investigation (PUIs) that have been tested, as well as PUIs that have tested negative. Now that states are testing and reporting their own results, CDC’s numbers are not representative all of testing being done nationwide.
And
@CDCgov As of March 9, 78 state and local public health labs across 50 states now have the capacity to test up to 75,000 people for #COVID19. State/local public health staff determine which specimens should be tested. See updated interim testing guidance: https://bit.ly/331U9jY.
Also, Sec Azar said Feb 29th that a total of 93 labs should be able to process the tests by early March. Is that true? Previously regions were all allowed to test, but the final confirmation had to come from CDC Atlanta labs. if that has not changed it will be catastrophic.
As of Friday March 06…
To find out how many coronavirus tests are being conducted, BuzzFeed News contacted the public health departments of all 50 states and Washington, DC, between Tuesday and Friday The hard-hit Washington state, for example, says it can now test nearly 900 people a day. But Wyoming has yet to get state testing off the ground. Even so, some common answers did come up: Few states have access to commercially produced tests, despite promises to the contrary from the FDA earlier this week.
As of Friday evening, BuzzFeed News confirmed that at least 2,187 people have been tested across the US, either at the state level or by the CDC. (Alabama and Pennsylvania did not provide information on how many tests they had done to date, and their information could not be found online.) An analysis published by the Atlantic on Friday found similar numbers.
Since then the number available for this friday are in the millions...1 to 4 million but they can’t say for sure because… Sec Azar lies through his teeth. Not knowing the numbers keeps “tRUMP’s numbers” down. He insists TWICE they have a surplus when Doctors and nurses are saying NO not true, they are being told when and who to test.
Azar: “At no time, at no time… at no time… [3 repeats, how tRUMPish] could a public health official not be able to get an individual tested for novel corona virus [it is COVID-19 for some time now] been unable to get them tested through the CDC’s labs or other labs authorized by CDC.”
Also on that thread… This person says she works in research but writes like a 12 year old and thinks the tests were defective because (get ready for it...)
“The corona virus is not new but this is a different strain of the virus, the test kits were probably outdated and didnt have this strain on it. Besides this virus is man made.”
At least she knows the first batch was defective, but she is also implying where she does research, there are incompetents. Let me see… ah yes, I see she retweets Q-Quislings, is “deeply” religious and considers her self a “digital soldier working for Christ, tRUMP, Q and is a nurse working in research according to her timeline. She also loves guns I see as I scroll through her timeline. Sigh.
In reality … Heaven help you America…

March 12th actual numbers tested, 11,000 TOTAL! Meanwhile in South Korea they are testing twice as many a day at drive throughs to keep the rest of the population safe. Australis and Germany also have drive through testing kiosks. WTF America.
“Frankly, the testing is going very smooth,” tRUMP said moments ago. But Republicans and Democrats were furious at what they heard at today’s House and Senate briefings - how just 11,000 have been administered and the country is nowhere near the pace of others like South Korea.
The handshaking going on with tRUMP is to try to prove a point and to troll Dems because that is all he cares about right now… revenge and his money… and he is going to prove something all right… Karma is real.
I am glad that Biden is showing the USA how leaders should speak and act...

Damn. If you have not seen this video, you must. Please, go watch this woman lead for Americans. I am Canadian and she took my breath away and made me cry...hard…
Rep. Porter read the testing costs to CDC Director Redfield, who did not know them, and got him to commit to using his authority under existing law to make Covid_19 testing available for all Americans regardless of insurance.
