The press is concerned with it. I guess they dont care about the health and well being of the public at large.

No. I've heard the press ask the stupid question of why the US has the most cases. It was a stupid ",gotcha" question aimed to please the morons in society.

And I dont think Trump was suggesting that, he was making a smartass remark in his usual awkward manner.

Nobody forced Trump to say something as dopey as:

"... If we didn't do any testing, we would have very few cases." - Donald Trump

What a stupid thing to say. Yeah, let's just bury our heads in the sand, and it will miraculously go away. Nobody would become ill with the symptoms of the Coronavirus, if we didn't do any testing for it, right? Trump is such a moron.

He's correct. Badly presented but he is 100% correct.

If that doesn't convince even his strongest supporters that Trump is actively working to undermine virus fighting efforts, I cannot imagine what would.

Mom had a heart attack in 2012 and had two stints put in. Her heart is only working at 60% because she waited so long to call us with chest pains. She's been on HQC since 2014 for lupus joint pain.

Any questions?

My take was an attempt at humor. Since your Mom's heart attack preceded her COVID, you drew a weak analogy.

No, he is not 100% correct. If we didn't do as much testing, we would likely have even more people becoming ill with the symptoms of the coronavirus, because the people who have the virus but aren't symptomatic, wouldn't know to be in isolation from those who are more at risk of becoming seriously ill with it. The only thing not testing as much would accomplish is cutting down on the number of confirmed cases among those who are asymptomatic. However, that doesn't necessarily cut down on the overall number of cases - if those people who are asymptomatic are (out of ignorance) infecting other, more at risk, people.
