        Awesome, that's 1/5 of what South Korea is doing in a day... and this is the cumulative US total. Did they ask how many times Mike Pence's team is praying each day?

        Playing politics with public health emergency response is really going to take 2020 to the next level.

        March 2, 2020 Dr. Matt McCarthy, a staff physician at New York-Presbyterian:I’m here to tell you, right now, at one of the busiest hospitals in the country, I don’t have [a rapid diagnostic test] at my finger tips. I still have to make my case, plead to test people.

        “In New York State, the person who tested positive is only the 32nd test we’ve done in this state,” he said. “That is a national scandal. [...] They’re testing 10,000 a day in some countries and we can’t get this off the ground,” McCarthy said.

        Is there an estimate for how long a person has to be infected for the tests to reliably detect COVID-19? For example, if a person gets infected on Monday and a test is given on Tuesday (1 day), will the test pick up the infection? What about a test given 4 days later on Friday?
