When the cruise ship was off San Fran Trump said he didnt wnat it to come to shore because it would just make the CV numbers go up
Keep that in mind and read these two articles:
#1 - No Drive Thru Sites
"Two weeks ago, President Donald Trump promised a network of drive-through covid-19 testing sites across the country where people could be tested "very safely, quickly and conveniently." In a Rose Garden news conference, chief executives of Target, Walgreens, Walmart and CVS said they would work with the government to provide space in store parking lots.
While the four retailers have a combined 26,400 U.S. stores, this vision of a proliferation of coronavirus testing sites has yet to materialize. Walgreens and CVS have opened one site each, while Walmart last weekend opened two drive-through testing locations near Chicago. Target hasn't opened any. Rite Aid, which joined the effort later, has opened one drive-through facility in Philadelphia."
#2 - Florida Testing Site Closes
Two days after announcing that it was conducting free drive-thru testing for the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, a nonprofit in West Palm Beach had to halt new visits after it was overrun by demand and quickly ran out of testing supplies.
and it closed
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. -- The free drive-through coronavirus testing service that began near West Palm Beach on Monday is no longer accepting new appointments.
NOW GO TO NEW YORK, THE #1 TESTING STATE IN THE COUNTRY (BECAUSE OF THE STATE GOVERNMENT)
New York has almost 1/2 of the nation's confirmed cases at 45,000 (and 1500 deaths).
Admittedly, NYC is a big, dense city, but NY is only roughly 7% of the US population, so if you mock it up for the nation (and even round down), actual national testing would probably show
630,000 cases (instead of 102,000 with limited testing)
The only good news out of NY (but it could change quickly) is that the mortality rate is only roughly 1.1%
POINT: TRUMP IS BETTER OF LYING ABOUT TESTING WITHOUT IT ACTUALLY HAPPENING NOW. HES BETTER OFF - POLITICALLY - JUST TALKING ABOUT IT, BUT NEVER ACTUALLY DOING IT . . . JUST LIKE THE CRUISE SHIP COMING ASHORE
