South Korea tested almost everybody in the country. If we had been able to do the same then we wouldn’t be in this predicament. The US is such a hollowed out shell of an industrial nation that we didn’t have enough masks for our primary health care workers. This country (and its politics) is an embarrassment.

This isn't correct. Latest numbers I've seen are 1 test for every 200 residents. That's pretty far ahead of everyone else, but not anywhere close to testing everybody in the country.
