I'm surprised at what seems like a low level of testing in the US so far, and taking a long time to organise test kits.
My impressions are Australia may have done a much better job on testing...
What Went Wrong with Coronavirus Testing in the U.S.
I'm not surprised
America seems to have multiple agencies that can say NO to expedient progress in anything medical related.
basically giant bureaucratic that is self-reinforcing more bureaucracy.
the same bureaucratic process that is required to stop dodgy medical outcomes, swings the other way and stops expedient Covid19 outcomes.
Australia is smaller population and southern hemisphere, so even without stating it, we also proportionally have a LOT of medical competence from Hong Kong and Singapore/Malaysia, so its more natural to enact an expedient choices. More to the point, ASX20 is Australia's top 20 companies, CSL is within ASX20 https://medicalhistorymuseum.mdhs.u...Australia-The-Legacy-of-antvenom-research.pdf is a serum specialist with deep expertise in flu vaccines Products. We have basically the 2nd largest flu vaccine company in the world listed in Australia.
whoever is advising Scott Morrison, is doing so from a position of deep understanding of realities from flu vaccine experience and understands the difficulties in implementing a SARS/Covid19 vaccine in the real world.
