Joe Biden has promised to deliver 500 million Covid tests but hasn't even signed a contract to buy them or set up a website so that people can place orders.
'That's not a plan - it's a hope,' Jennifer Nuzzo, an epidemiologist at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, told The New York Time.
'If those tests came in January and February, that could have an impact, but if they are spread out over 10 to 12 months, I'm not sure what kind of impact it is going to have.'
It is not even known how many tests will be immediately available

I'm surprised that John Hopkins is calling out the President.

Who cares if anyone tests positive, if they have mild symptoms?
I won't stick anything up my nose that was manufactured in China!

Biden is a living example of that old sign that says Plan Ahead, but there is no room for the final d and it slants off the page. Or should I say Ron Klain & Company are living examples. Should I say this in a stage whisper for effect?

It’s not a plan or a hope. It’s a deception.
Next he’ll have a meeting and then convene a blue ribbon committee.

By the time Biden and his crew purchase 500 million rapid tests from China, they are manufactured, transported to the USA, and are mailed to every American, chances are the Omicron variant of COVID will be long gone. Who knows what variant will show up next or if the 500 million rapid tests will give an accurate test result on any new variants that may make an appearance?
There will be a large amount of taxpayers money offered for the 500 million tests, so the watchword should be to follow the money.

Oh goodie! We can now all test positive for COVID. Keep that panic going indefinitely. Lock that @@@@@@@@ down! Up next, mandatory testing. Up next, 500 million mail-in ballots. Not one word from the Republicants in Congress.
Only good news in this is that the test kits have a shelf life and become worthless after a while.

I picked up several of these kits. It requires you to download an app and set up an account then go online with a computer that has a camera and speaker so that a proctor in India can walk you through the test. The process takes about an hour and the kits themselves only have about a 30 day life before they expire and the proctor will not process expired kits. A lot of people are going to have trouble with this test.
FJB can stand by for serious blowback.

Why 500 million? Or has his wide open borders policy increased our legal and illegal population by more than 150 million in 1 year?

Not to worry...the China test kits will be stuck offshore in California until well after their expiration date. Problem solved, China gets the money and no more positive tests.

The government always ruins everything they touch. Now they plan to test the healthy and the sick, put all the population in house slippers, robe, and kept in bed with a thermometer.

Trying to take credit for things that the private market is already doing?
And, they end up short on the shelves, because some people were buying EVERY test kit so they could re-sell them at a large mark-up.
Just like the port crisis has not been solved, they simply pushed the vessels 150 miles off shore to idle, or drift, while they wait for a berth appointment. Some are down off shore of Mexico waiting for their berth in Los Angeles port complex.

The Biden/Harris regime totally failed at opportunities for Operation Warp Speed-lke actions to lead in preparing for mass testing and advanced medical treatment regimens. They have had a year to take the lead in the pandemic fight but instead they finger-point and arm wave in their TDS-addled ineffectiveness. Lock-downs, harangues and wokeness are just a few of the inept activities of the regime. The Trump developed and produced vaccines have saved countless lives, even through the incompetence of Brandon and his ilk.

Will these be modified from the normal large number of false positives to lots of false negatives to make Demented Joe look better?

Just turn the whole mess over to whoever is in charge for sending out mail-in ballots. We'll be knee-deep in covid tests before New Year's Eve.

Sounds like Hunter Biden hasn't been able to negotiate a suitable deal with the supplier. Plus, of course, the usual 10% from "the big guy."

Remember back during the 2020 presidential campaign how Biden told the nation that Trump should be kicked out of office after the original COVID showed up in the USA from China and from China via Europe out of the blue. At the time there were absolutely no medical treatments available to prevent or treat the newly discovered COVID virus, and as a result the virus killed many elderly Americans, but Trump immediately cranked up his “Operation Warp Speed” with the biomedical industry creating the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines in record time with people starting to be vaccinated even before the 2020 election. Trump also encouraged US industry to manufacture large numbers of face masks and hospital ventilators. During the presidential campaign, while Biden hiding in his basement essentially blamed Trump for COVID, and insinuated that Trump was racist for stopping all air travel from China. Harris politicized the COVID situation by telling the American people that she would not take any vaccines that the Trump Administration developed. Biden went on telling the American people that he had developed a grand plan to shutdown COVID before the 4th of July, 2020. All Biden’s claims were heavily propagandized to the American people. Now it is very evident that Biden had no such plan to shutdown COVID and Biden has now told the American people that he and his administration were surprised by the emergence of the Omicron variant of the COVID virus and will look to purchase 500 million rapid COVID tests in response at US Government expense, tests that obviously will not be ready to go for months, at which time the Omicron variant of COVID will probably be gone. Obviously Biden, Harris, the leftist and socialist Democrats, and their media propagandists faked out the American people regarding the COVID issue especially concerning Biden’s plan to shutdown COVID that obviously never existed.
