Blows my mind we have people here who, rightfully, preach against state involvement in healthcare but completely trust the government to manage this outbreak.

The government has fricked this process entirely

I see this is the latest talking point.

I don't "completely trust" anyone with anything.

But, the reality is, all of the resources or at least most of the resources that can be applied to the task right now happen to reside with the govt.

I suppose we can debate in the future whether that's wise. But it is what it is right now.

LOL

Partisan? How on Earth is my recognition that whether we like it or not, govt resources are where most of what will be applied reside "partisan"?

I mean, maybe we should redesign that. But it ain't gonna happen this week.

What is this person supposed to do that they wouldn’t be doing if they had the flu? Isn’t it the same treatment, etc?

You have to make choices, you can’t test everyone all the time. The sky is not falling.

Stop making everything political. We get it. You don't like Trump and you're secretly hoping the stock market crashes and thousands die of this virus so he's negatively impacted.

The OP didn’t even read the article

“The Harrison County resident diagnosed with Kentucky's first case of coronavirus was twice denied testing for COVID-19 at the direction of the Kentucky Department of Health

If anyone is to blame, it is the Kentucky Department of Health

They chose not to test

Well, he did say that. Why did this $8.3 billion go through?

Is he misinformed? Is this out of his control?
