  1.  @ruminationstation4200  Canada's testing rate is also 27 people per confirmed case, while the US testing rate is 13.7 people per confirmed case. While it may be accurate to say that mailing tests is a step the US is now taking that the Canadian government hasn't, it would have been more accurate for David to point out that the US still needs to catch up to Canada, and not the other way around. Total tests and tests per million are kind of irrelevant numbers that are totally disconnected from the covid numbers. Tests per confirmed case tells you how you're doing compared to the virus spread. Dumpty was bragging about totals and tests per million, meanwhile the US was testing at a rate of about 5 people per confirmed case, at the time. Meanwhile, countries like A Korea, Vietnam, Australia, and New Zealand, were testing 50+ people per confirmed case. Testing rates seem to have a strong correlation to how well countries have contained the virus. The US should be increasing testing by a helluva lot more than 500k home tests.

  2. To be fair, the Canadian testing rate (tests per confirmed case) is double the US rate, already.

  3. Canada is testing at twice the rate of the US, and Canada's covid deaths per million rate would translate into 500+k fewer deaths in the US. Canada may not be New Zealand or Australia, but they're in the better half of covid responses.
