HOW DARE YOU ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING WITHOUT US! F.D.A. Halts Coronavirus Testing Program Backed by Bill Gates.

The program involved sending home test kits to both healthy and sick people in the hope of conducting the kind of widespread monitoring that could help communities safely reopen from lockdowns. Researchers and public health authorities already had tested thousands of samples, finding dozens of previously undetected cases.

But the program, a partnership between research groups and the Seattle and King County public health department that had been operating under authorization from the state, was notified this week that it now needs approval directly from the federal government. Officials with the Food and Drug Administration told the partnership to cease its testing and reporting until the agency grants further approval.

One thing we’ve learned from this pandemic is that there’s too much regulation.
