"Los Angeles County health officials advised doctors to give up on testing patients in the hope of containing the coronavirus outbreak, instructing them to test patients only if a positive result  could change how they would be treated.

The guidance, sent by the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health  to doctors on Thursday, was prompted by a  crush of patients and shortage of tests, and could make it difficult to ever know precisely how many people in L.A. County contracted the virus.  "

Keep saying unless you are very ill there is really no reason to tests people we all should be SIP.   We ARE ALL GOING TO GET COVID19...we just hope to keep our hospital in good standing  by SIP.  Italy just banned walking and jogging...it is really bad there and if we do not learn from Italy we are doomed to their same fate!
