Why exclusive?

1) Profit

2) Engineer exclusions against blue states

People test and the number of confirmed cases will greatly increase. Remember how he did not want the cruise ship to dock in the U.S.

Trump is simply a child. A child who got caught in a lie. He’s still trying to ignore it or explain it away. He openly stated, “I take no responsibility at all”. It’s not my fault!

To mitigate his inevitable fit people around him are telling him, “It’s okay. You’re a good boy.”

He’s used to just walking away from his failures and declaring victory. You can’t walk away from this.

Is that the WHO test "doesn't use the rna" and has a 40% false positive rate. I had an argument about this on Facebook. I had to inform the individual that the WHO test uses rtPCR and that's impossible without the viral genome. And then I pointed out that the 40% false positive rate was b.s. because primers used in rtPCR are very specific. And then pointed out that even if the 40% false positive was true, it would have resulted in more stringent measures which would have been much better than the lack of response that we've had. He didn't even bother contesting that.
