Bill Gates: testing in the US is not organized yet

昨天Bill Gates在reddit上搞了个ask me anything活动
https://www.reddit.com/r/Coronavirus/comments/fksnbf/im_bill_gates_cochair_of_the_bill_melinda_gates/

一个比较惊讶的问答:
Q: 西雅图/华盛顿州的确诊数量平稳下降,是因为我们social distancing成功还是testing不够?
A: testing还不够organized. U of W每天测几千份, 但是结果没有上报到national tracking system

我的理解错误了吗?原文:

Bill - thank you for taking the time to do this today. I live in Seattle, like you, and it feels like our testing has not increased. Our number of confirmed cases are starting to lag behind other states. What do you think gives? Effective social distancing or lack of testing?

The testing in the US is not organized yet. In the next few weeks I hope the Government fixes this by having a website you can go to to find out about home testing and kiosks. Things are a bit confused on this right now. In Seattle the U of W is providing thousands of tests per day but no one is connected to a national tracking system.
Whenever there is a positive test it should be seen to understand where the disease is and whether we need to strengthen the social distancing. South Korea did a great job on this including digital contact tracing.

回复 1楼turnt的帖子 这个AMA我也看了,他毕竟不是做这个专业的,很多都是他自己的理解有的并不完全正确。比如UW测的结果,如果阳性是必须报到州里的,但是阴性的结果就不用报。

多公开质疑是好的,尤其是有头有脸的人物出来公开质疑,这是好事情。

西雅图开始能一天测2000人很不错,但现在还只测这么多就太少了。UW实验室也是尽力了。
