Limited testing
The first tests that CDC had and used in January failed as they were not useful in detecting this virus. Very quickly the correct test was developed and went into production. However the tests were are sent to CDC labs which were operating on limited staff as a result of budget cuts in the last two years. Fast forward, contacts for testing given to the two largest labs in the country. Even as more test kits became available there are not enough people or equipment to process all of the tests daily so there grew a backlog with the national labs of more than a week. My point is supply will never meet demand at the front end of this virus. If we are lucky we may seem some improvements by the beginning of May.
