In late January my wife and daughter visited Disneyland, and there were a handful of COVID-19 cases reported in SoCal around the same time. On the Sunday they were due to fly back, my daughter came down with a very strong cough (she said it was even "hurting her throat") and a high fever of around 102F. We had been following the outbreak in China and my wife called the CDC to inquire about getting her tested for COVID-19. They said they had no ability to get her tested, that we should not be concerned at all that it might actually be COVID-19, and she should visit a clinic. The clinic said it was probably just the flu, and told her to go ahead and fly back but to wear a mask. This was absolutely criminal incompetence on the CDC's part.
