Fewer people got themselves tested?
He has obviously never tried as a citizen to actually get tested, you have to be on deaths door to get a test.
‘And fill out paperwork while feeling like death. It’s again people’s fault has nothing to do with the government’s multilayered process?
Do companies allow workers to take a half day, to get tested?
‘It’s not people’s fault. Idiot.
