Yes, absolutely. The lack of testing capacity was a total failure of the government.

After the acute phase of the crisis, we should investigate what happened in great detail.

But the advice about who should get a test is based on the testing capacity we have now. If we hadn't failed at testing capacity, we would be recommending more users get tested.

So, if the critique is: "we failed to produce adequate testing capacity", then I absolutely agree. If the critique is instead: "The recommendation of who gets a test is bad", then I disagree. The recommendation is correct given the test capacity failing.

The solution is not to recommend everyone gets tests, because they can't! Those tests are being rationed. The solution is to rapidly improve out testing capacity.

Yes, we are 3 months late. These wasted last 3 months were critical after the December outbreak in China. I don't think it is the U.S. problem, Europeans didn't move a finger until the beginning of March either. Literally everyone watched China as if they could contain it properly. They didn't even tell people until it was very late.
