Unknown to probably almost everybody because it was not covered by the non news: the delay in the first round of tests was that they sent out like a million test kits that were contaminated with the virus. Not just did they always report positive, I suppose there was a possibility of infection of people in the process of collecting a sample! That alone added 2-3 weeks to the delay in testing. This was not a "leadership" issue the leaders put the ball in motion. The people making and distributing the tests screwed up and definitely due to how exponential curves work it could have been double the cases from that horribly timed hiccup.

The tests gave false readings, I don't think they were contaminated with the virus and infecting people.
The older we are the less effective our immune system is. Even seniors with no underlining conditions are high risk And many seniors with underlining conditions, even some of those in nursing homes do not have one foot in the grave. Segregating those that were terminal would been helpful but guidelines were still needed to reduce the risk for all, including seniors. That is mostly our responsibility. Because nursing homes don't know who is or not following the guidelines many do not allow any visitors including family.
