Covid-19: Update on Testing and Tracing and Rising Incidence in the State

Dr. Colm Henry:

Briefly, if we got to those numbers of cases presenting, particularly if we were prioritising those with symptoms after infection, we would have a lot more to worry about than out testing capacity because, as we know, the virus has not changed its traits at all and it would translate into high levels of hospitalisation, ICU usage and, unfortunately, death.
