If you're following the Sybil style changes at the CDC:

Per MSNBC, now they're saying that a healthy person who is exposed to the virus, but is asymptomatic does not have to take a test. They suggest fewer tests.

This has to come from the White House, because we're back to the problem of having people who don't know they have it (asymptomatic) spreading it to others.

Get back behind the oars, workers. Get those kids into the schools. We don't want testing. That may cause us to have to reconsider the wood chipper plan.
