LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) – Los Angeles city and county leaders announced Monday they have purchased 20,000 coronavirus testing kits from a South Korean biotech company.
The L.A. City Council and the L.A. Board of Supervisors jointly spent $1.25 million to immediately purchase 20,000 tests from Seegene Technologies, the two agencies said in a news release.

This should never have had to happen. Because our conflict-riddled CDC insists upon having their own tests so they can patent them for profit, the U.S. STILL doesn’t have a reliable test for COVID-19.

As a result the U.S. has absolutely NO idea how many cases there are due to extremely faulty testing: https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/03/21/study-shows-covid-19-testing-as-bad-as-lyme-msids-testing/
And due to these inaccurate tests, they can not even begin to predict anything about prevalence: https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/03/28/cuomo-admits-decision-to-quarantine-everyone-at-once-was-not-the-best-strategy/
Recently Dr. Sin Hang Lee has created an accurate DNA sequencing test for COVID-19: https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2020/03/25/new-dna-sequencing-test-for-covid-20-100-accurate-can-also-test-for-5-strains/
You may recognize Lee’s name as he currently has a lawsuit against the CDC for dismissing his direct detection test for Lyme disease: https://madisonarealymesupportgroup.com/2018/08/15/milford-pathologist-fires-broadside-at-cdc-motion-to-discuss/
The CDC has a long and sordid history of dissing any tests but their own. They want to design the test for their purposes so ultimately they can create a vaccine and other patentable products.
