It's ridiculous that states have had to bid (against each other) on kits and supplies, there has to/should be an equitable way to ensure everyone has the tools they need to insure the safest easing of the current regulations.

Again, I think testing is being a bit overblown. We don't need tests to see our hospitals are obviously not overflowing. Don't get me wrong I am not against testing at all and think kits should be available but what is the strategy with testing at this point in regards to opening back up?
If I am sick I am staying home, especially right now. If I have symptoms I am being counted as positive even if I am not. I just don't see the correlation between testing and it being a requirement to opening things back up?
I mean, if you have an outbreak or are in a hot spot, you're gonna know without testing because there is going to be a run on the hospitals and doctors.
We are laying off doctors and nurses right now while at the same time we are being told we have to shut down so we don't overrun the hospitals.
