There's no sides here, and the particular reason for failure doesn't matter. This is a disease that will kill people. Letting people go untested out into the wild is not going to help.

People fuck up, that's what people do, leaders catch and acknowledge failure early and try to fix it. Unfortunately, at this point, people will die that didn't have to. And that's going to be because:

1. Tons of people weren't tested that should have been.

2. People can't afford to get a test because of the health insurance situation in this country.

Aggressive no cost testing would help, I'm sure trump is going to announce that here any minute for a problem that he doesn't think is real.
