(11,736 posts)To get REAL numbers of who has it and where the densest areas of infection are. We also need to do the serology tests to see who has HAD it and is no longer symptomatic.
The only way that we can make decisions is if we have the most accurate numbers possible. Only 1% of the population has been tested as of today. That is NOTHING. We cannot make any good predictions or plans with that information.
I don't think that it is necessarily a false sense of security IF the messaging on testing is honest and accurate. The problem with that is we have a narcissistic idiot in the White House and would likely get false and dangerous information from him.
If he would just go crawl into a hole somewhere and let the experts run this, the situation could be fixed.
