And probably everywhere

Sounds a little shaky to me

What does it mean if the specimen tests positive for
the virus that causes COVID-19?
A positive test result for COVID-19 indicates that RNA
from SARS-CoV-2 was detected, and the patient is
presumptively infected with the virus and presumed to
be contagious. Laboratory test results should always be
considered in the context of clinical observations and
epidemiological data in making a final diagnosis and
patient management decisions.

Testing doesn't even matter when there are no test kits

L.A. County gives up on containing COVID-19, tells doctors to skip testing of some patients

The nation’s second-largest municipal health system has told its staff that it is essentially abandoning hope of containing the coronavirus outbreak and instructed doctors not to bother testing symptomatic patients if a positive result won’t change how they would be treated.

The guidance, sent by the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services to its doctors on Thursday, was prompted by a crush of patients and shortage of tests, and could make it difficult to ever know precisely how many people in L.A. County contracted the virus.

The department “is shifting from a strategy of case containment to slowing disease transmission and averting excess morbidity and mortality,” according to the letter. Doctors should test symptomatic patients only when “a diagnostic result will change clinical management or inform public health response.”

The guidance sets in writing what has been a reality all along. The shortage of tests nationwide has meant that many patients suspected of having COVID-19 have not had the diagnosis confirmed by a laboratory.

Dear PCS Member,

Regrettably, I am writing to tell you that COVID-19 testing supplies are currently exhausted. We are frustrated as we know all of you are.

We will be in touch immediately as soon as more information and access to supplies are available.

In order to both provide better quality customer service and to assist our staff in accommodating needs at home, we are setting our office hours to 10 AM to 6 PM ET.

As always, all results are available in real-time on the PCS website. The PCS News box on the Launchpad will have the most important information displayed. With the situation being as fluid as it can be, we will update you whenever appropriate.

In Health,

J. William Beakey, O.M.D.

Correct.

And then treating and killing patients ensues
Thus perpetuating their phony epidemic
