WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Vice President Mike Pence said Sunday the United States has enough testing nationwide to allow any state to start lifting lockdown orders forced by the coronavirus, if they have met other criteria.

 

"We believe we have the testing today around the country, that would allow any state in America to move to phase one (of the recovery plan) if they have met the other criteria," Pence said at a briefing. Those criteria include 14 days of declines in infections and enough hospital capacity to treat everyone who gets sick, he said.

What a clowns parade, the boss incite rebellion, the deputy try to amend promising c19 test, which a good 60% of US population can not afford due the lack of cash and no med insurance.

Plus lack of availability, see governors statements.

lCurrently priority is being given to health care workers, first-responders and those over the age of 65 with symptoms in Palm Beach Florida, my home city.  So I don't think testing is very wide ranging.  Similar things here in New Jersey where I am working.  To get tested, one has to get a note from their doctor, be in the risk group and supposedly assert you came in contact with somebody with the virus.  Well, few people know who had the virus as they do not release that information.

 

Testing process is suspect

You can't test without the supplies to conduct the tests but these people are so brain dead they cannot understand that

 

3 different people saying the exact opposite things.  Trump, Pence, and the governors, here read all the gory details:
