My ex works at an urgent care clinic where they literally put a big banner up saying that they do COVID-19 tests.
They have not run out of tests.
This strongly suggests that in Orange County, CA, the bottleneck is not enough people asking for tests.
the bottleneck is not enough people with adequate health insurance asking for tests
In my case, I couldn't get a test despite my wife getting one. I guess they only wanted me to test if she tested positive. Thankfully the test was negative.
the bottleneck is people not being able to access tests. you can't just "ask" for one and get one and if you think you can, you clearly haven't tried getting tested.
That reversed in the last week. She now has enough tests to give them to anyone who asks. Which is why they put the banner up.
