were caught off guard by omicron. it is obvious they were. everyone was. the exponential growth of the cases is truly alarming. you re right, you can t get your hands on an in-home test right now in you re in d.c. or new york. that being said, you know, they clearly are in sort of a sprint mode right here. they re trying to not just portray that they are on top of this but, you know, actively move the levers of government around it using the defense production act to get more tests to people, sending those tests to people s homes after they dismiss the idea. and they re trying to do it within the confines of not shutting down schools and the economy. part of it is that this is, in fact, a different time than march 2020. people are that are protected from the virus because of vaccines and therapies, but we also know better public health practices. i think part of it is also and you know this too it s political. they cannot shut down schools again. there would be a huge backlash.
