Testing is a critical means to a particular end, but not an end in of itself. You gotta do all that other stuff. (contact tracing & isolation, stiffer mitigation of hotspots) too. Whenever we get around to having a second wave, we'll be happy we have this robust testing capacity.

I'm quite sure the CDC knows what contact tracing is. It's literally epidemiology 101 going back to Typhoid Mary. Half the plot of Contagion and And the Band Played On are about the mechanics of contact tracing. Incidentally, one of the great failures of this whole ordeal is that the CDC hasn't led from the the front on testing / tracing / isolation. It's sort of why they're there and in their absence you have no nothing state officials running the show.

We didn’t need Cuomo to say that for us to know it.
They didn’t even contact everyone on the plane of “patient zero.” If they screwed up their first known case, I would imagine it was a total cluster for weeks.
