Deer ignorant Democrats, testing is not a preventative measure. Only 19% are testing positive.

That's a fact. 2,670,674 tests have only resulted in 532,879
confirmed positive cases.

Testing does not prove where the infection started.

Testing does not change a contagious condition.

Testing does not stop the spread.

test

verb
carry out a medical test on (a person, a part of the body, or a
body fluid).
produce a specified result in a medical test, especially a drug

If you are stupid then testing doesn't affect contagion.

The countries that are smart use testing to find out
who needs to be quarantined and to follow up with
testing on all the people who had contact with the
infected person and test them also.
Hong Kong has used this strategy successfully and
has only 4 corona virus deaths even though they are a
densely populated city of 8 million. Every person wearing
masks in public is also a necessary ingredient in a successful
strategy to limit the damage.

If only 15%-19% have the virus and there are this many deaths thne the
mortality rates will be significant. Probably 5 times the lowest
estimates they made which had predicted that 80%-100% would get the
virus and only 0.5% would die.

The BIGGER QUESTION is who is susceptible to the virus because if it is
100% then we could see those other 80% get the virus over the next few
years... and that's NOT counting those with damaged lungs and hearts
that will die in the next decades from their reduced ability to breath
and that now have heart problems or weakness that they didn't prior to
the virus.

This is far more serious than just the body cout wee see today and
tomorrow, those counts are connected the hospital bed and ventilator
needs but don't connect to the future damage from the virus.
