Dr. Anthony Fauci on Sunday admitted that the federal government has failed to authorize and distribute a sufficient number of at-home COVID tests, despite President Joe Biden's promise to distribute 500 million free at-home rapid tests amid a surge in new coronavirus cases.In an interview with ABC's Jonathan Karl on Sunday morning, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases admitted that coronavirus cases are continuing to soar, leading to an increased demand for COVID tests that the government has failed to prepare for, and now cannot meet. 'Obviously testing, Jon, is going to be very important,

Now throw in the OSHA mandate that says any unvaccinated employee must test weekly and provide results, weekly. If they cannot do this due to a shortage of tests and a backlog of tests waiting to be read, then what? How can OSHA penalize a company that is trying to follow the rules? Will employees need to remain at home until they can get a test or have results? They might as well quit, or get the shot….hey, wait a minute! This administration is a shite fest. The Supreme Court should throw out the mandate based solely on how badly thought out it is.

The lack of tests isn't the issue. It's that the tests aren't all that accurate identifying Covid from something else, and the fact the politicians and the media is using every positive test as a reason to keep the panic about Covid going.

It is flu season last time I checked. The Moronic flu seems to be the new thing this year. Hang killed a single person yet. Imagine that. The common cold has a twin sister. Fear not. Trust God. Here’s a Bible verses that might give you peace and hope.
1 Timothy 3:16 King James Version
“And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.”

I agree with #4. I gad the Kung Flu back in May. My quicky CVS COVID-19 test was negative so they treated me for an "acute bronchitis" with a 2 week Z-pack followed by another one week antiviral. The doctors only realized it was COVID-19 when I lost my sense of taste and smell along with other standard covid symptoms. If my test had been positive in the first place, they wouldn't have sent me home with anything to combat it.
We need to follow South Africa and stop testing asymptomatic people. If you are feeling sick, showing obvious symptoms or have been in contact with someone sick, then get tested. Otherwise, it's long past time to end the panic!!

Testing is worthless since the medical community will not treat covid until it is too late. If u havent had covid get hcq and/or ivermectin as soon as u can or find someone that will share incase u get sick. If u feel sick, stay home, treat immediately with the mcculough or zelenski protocol and chances r it will be less severe than a the old common cold.

Testing is worth an awful lot of money to the companies that sell the "free" tests at taxpayer expense, and you can bet your last dollar that Doctor Fauci and much of the US Congress have substantial stock holdings in these firms, by sheer coincidence.

Fools. Load up on vitamin c, vitamin d, some quercitin and zinc, they’d be fine tomorrow. Instead, useful idiots and pawns.

Why do they need all this testing for Omicron, which has been shown to produce a stuffy nose and sore throat? If they're going to have mass tests for stuffy noses and sore throats, what next are they going to do? Have mass tests for hurt feelings?

41% overnight spike? Everybody in the country who had a Christmas party must have had at least one unvaxxed guest sneak in. You people did not do your civic duty and check your friends at the door.

Oh sure, the administration failed...not St. Fauci. What a miserable creep to sing the demonrat tune just to protect Joey. It was no "mistake". It was done on purpose.

...and so how long does it take to get these home Covid test results back? Crime scene evidence seems to take months to get results back.

I agree with # 6. Stop testing asymptomatic people. The CDC has already admitted the test are defective, yet we keep hearing about all these people testing positive. I wonder how many of them are actually sick. (?)
The tests are a flawed Marxist tool. This is mostly about government control.

My sister was feeling ill and went to her doctor. She tested her for flu, covid and strep throat and they all came back negative. The doctor said it was probably a cold, and to take tylenol and throat lozenges and just rest. My sister did, and was fine in 5 days. She has had two vaccines and a booster.

We have never tested for the common cold and it is caused by a virus. Sometimes it gets worse and goes into pneumonia and I am sure deaths have occurred as a result of it. So now we have a virus that has killed no one and yet, we are being forced into the government protocol for Covid not because of the threat of dying but because of the death of their political tool is a possibility and they can’t have that. Instead, they have, once again, brought out the tool that will enable them to control how we do process elections. I bet in the depths of the democrat control center for using covid as a tool to steal another election, they are sorely disappointed that this darn variant will just not kill more people. Nevertheless, they know there are enough Karens in this country to run with their narrative. We are living with Little Red Hens running around warning us that covid is coming! I don’t know which is worse the people who use this virus as a political weapon or the people who are so ignorant that they fall for the same lie over and over. Politically malevolent people preying on ignorant fools is a very dangerous combination and we all suffer.

Brandon failed to not only order additional test kits, but where is the increased manufacturing of medications? Oh, that's right, not enough workers to manufacture them.

Isn't that Faux-chi's job to know about variants and to make sure there are enough tests available? That's why the lying weasel gets paid the Big Bucks...from our threadbare wallets to his bulging bank account.

After the 500 million test kits have been used up, what are the Lemmings going to do next week and the week after? Most of them will die from fear and anxiety. Yesterday's test results have a very short shelf-life.

Last Wednesday I woke up with a sore throat and by Friday had sinus congestion and a bit of fatigue. So I got tested for covid and 2 types of flu - all negative. But I still got checked at the door on Christmas Day by family. I’ve been taking extra Vitamin C, D3, zinc and quercetin for months. I’ve also been taking Ivermectin these last few days just in case. But this is obviously just a cold because 6 days into it, my husband doesn’t even have a sniffle. (That is, if they are telling the truth about omicron being highly contagious.)

They're intentionally trying to start a panic. Again. He needs to be indicted for fraud, treason and medical malpractice.
