The sad truth is that we're low on reagents to test if people are infected. If the general advise is to stay home and self-isolate anyways, then we can stretch the supply for healthcare workers (nurses, doctors,...). I might be wrong but I think this is the reasoning to prioritize and ration testing for certain critical people in the health supply chain of things. edit: "low on reagents" was meant relative. I just wanted to convey we need to be smart how we use this limited supply.
