Trump admin just said 195k completed tests have been done. Thats testing witth results.

In denmark we've only done like 12k+ tests.
We re starting to run low on tests kits or parts of them, so we're apparently only testing people that show symptoms now.

I know if you account for the population differnces (denmark is like 1/50'th) between the two countries, its like three times that of the america's.
It still feels like a low amount to me, just a small 12k and we re starting to run low.

A spoke person said, their working on getting more of the peices their low on.... still feels like she was makeing excuses.
She didnt talk about how they where planning on getting said peices, just said their trying.

Update:

yesterday we found out we've only done like 12k+ tests, and we re starting to run low on certain parts when it comes to testing.
So we cant just wide-spread test (people in contact with others ect,), only for those we believe have symptoms ect.

Now today on a danish news site, I read that apparently we have a company here in denmark called PenteBase,
that make more than 100,000+ test kits pr week, and have all the parts/expertise that follow and are needed for such.

They sent a email to "health minister" and were apparently just ignored or not discovered.

Right now, their makeing all these solutions to it,.... and their shipping them mainly to India, Australia, and Spain.
Like out of denmark, when we could be useing them here.

This sorta stuff makes me abit angry.
Why are we running low (here in denmark) when we re makeing huge amounts that we instead sell to other countries.
Like I feel bad for india and Australia, but I rather these tests be used here to cover our own needs first.
