However, I’m sorry to see you say testing is not an issue “for those who need it”, because, ideally, everyone needs it. This is because a sizable percentage of those who are infected have no symptoms, but must be in isolation, to prevent infecting others. To imply that only those who are symptomatic should be tested is to encourage behavior that will cause the virus to continue to spread.
