Yes, our CDC flubed it big time. When the World Health Organization offered their test in January, the CDC said "No, we always do our own" So, they went and did their own, but, it didn't work right....they rolled out a defective test to the country. After about 6 weeks, they recognized they needed help and the administration cut the red tape and allowed Private labs to develope their own tests. Did you know the CDC had a monopoly? Private l abs could not act without permission, and the CDC/FDA were not about to give it. Yes, Congress gave them that a few years ago, trust misplace imho. The CDC, then, deprived our leaders of almost 2 months of data, and we have not caught up yet. Hard to fight a war without the data.
