What's this?

Biden is President so he can take the heat for lack of test kits available.


That's cool. I suppose I wonder is it a supply side or a demand side problem? I really don't see the point of rushing out to get a test if you are asymptomatic. I've gotten tested twice. Once in 2020 when it was required for a minor surgical procedure. Once this past year before I was vaxxed when I had some suspicious symptoms. I wouldn't plan on doing so now unless I was exposed and exhibiting symptoms, particularly since I have also been boosted. Others need the test more than I do perhaps, plus it's a pain in the ass.

There was an interesting article in the Tacoma News Tribune today about it and the impacts locally. I agree with the conclusion that it really is not excusable that the US doesn't have testing readily available. But there also appears to be some distribution problems related to ongoing supply chain issues. It's a dilemma.

Unless of course, one thinks the whole thing is a hoax anyway.
