Worst post you've ever made.
Better check with PChiknbut and Plano. They might disagree.
It was a low bar.
Wait. Wut?

Why doesn't it say: Those exhibiting symptoms will be tested for the COVOID-19 virus and if positive, triaged for care or asked to return home with self-isolation for 14 days, frequent remote follow up, and contact tracing arranged.

Because apparently, we live in a third world country and testing isn't that important to the administration.

Our President and every one of the incompetent clowns (sans Fauci and Birx) on his "task force" would rather lie than be truthful regarding tests. Fuck 'em all!

Because, obviously, part of being POTUS is having a magic wand that instantly makes testing supplies appear out of thin air; ergo, DJT is sitting back doing nothing and everything that is wrong in the world is his fault. Brilliant.

How many months did President Lysol know that testing supplies would be needed before he could stop watching Fox News and eating cheeseburgers long enough to pay attention to warnings from the IC and scientists?

How dare you imply people feel Donald is sitting back doing nothing? Anyone who is paying attention knows he's been busy tweeting everyday - more often than not, about shit that has nothing to with the "war" he is currently "leading".
Of course the lack of testing supplies isn't Donald's fault. It's Obama's fault. Donald told me (and the world) that.

So, yes to the magic wand thing, then. Got it.

Of course he can't make testing supplies appear out of thin air. NOW.
He could have waved a "magic wand" 3 years ago. I'm not saying he could have known we would need actual COVID-19 tests but he sure as shit should have known we had a lack of testing supplies.
He blames Obama but he's been the President for 3+ years. A LOT can be done in 3 years.
You can believe what you want but I choose to believe he is to blame for not giving a damn that he didn't have a pandemic response team before COVID-19 hit. If he had, perhaps they would have had influence over him and then they or he could have had influence over the CDC, Health and Human Resources, and The Strategic National Stockpile, those responsible for making sure we would have the necessary "testing supplies" and medical equipment should there be a pandemic.

Psych, you're too stupid to know what an IG is or does, so get back to me when you have a clue.

You are in a grocery store and you are wearing a mask. You are wearing a short sleeve shirt. You have no Kleenex/tissue.
There is a woman and you assume her daughter standing an estimated 6 feet (give or take a foot) away from you. You have to sneeze.
Do you remove your mask and sneeze in to your arm or shirt - or do you keep your mask on and sneeze in to your mask?

Hold the sneeze in so that you sneeze-fart. The shock and smell will drive the mother further away and will make the kid laugh. Win-win.

I cannot fathom who would think this is a good idea right now. Besides, I guess, rubes who want to BOOK A CRUISE TO OWN THE LIBS.

I will say - there is a degree of fearmongering in the "healthy 28-year-old drops dead" stories. Yes, it happens. But to blow up these stories, particularly without contextualizing them, is to inflame fears and paranoia (and also perhaps diminish the chances of the most vulnerable having access to acute care).
