Lots of people are reporting on this - I'm not sure where you're looking that you're missing it.



It's entirely possible I have missed something, and I'd love some links!

I'm especially looking for reporting on why it's so slow, what the bottlenecks are, and who's responsible.

Even if there is some good reporting out there, I think this should me one of the main news items in a healthy society.

I have seen reporting on the bungling of the initial testing rollout, like this one: https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/contamination-...


This article for example was on the CNN front page, explaining that the major bottlenecks are test swabs and the required reagents and describing a specific FDA action which the governor of Ohio thinks would solve his problems.

Thanks!

That is better than I've seen.

I'm still missing anything beyond summarizing what officials have said.

The Ohio Governor blaming FDA regulations is the closest to an analysis in there.
