If you can get the test. Many people wait and don’t get tested. Further, if we hadn’t turned down the German developed test used by the WHO we could’ve tested an order of an order of magnitude more people by now which actually would’ve saved lives and lessened the economic impact.

Government officials in the county that I live are essentially asking for people to avoid all non-essential travel. That includes going to movie theaters, bars and restaurants.
