Also happy to help here, @RobertGehrke.

I believe testing is more than "fine, I guess." Testing saves lives. We opened two testing sites in Utah County today that otherwise wouldn't be operating if not for http://TestUtah.com  and @siliconslopes.

That's just a start. https://twitter.com/RobertGehrke/status/1245818949050101765
We hope to open sites across the entire state assuming our model is proven.

Utah tested 712 people yesterday. 712! That's unacceptable.

Testing and social distancing is how we're going to get through this pandemic.
Utah has tested more than 2,000 people in one day just three times. THREE TIMES! On 3/26, 3/27, and 3/28.

Testing has gone down rapidly over the past five days.

4/1 - 712

3/31 - 1,269

3/30 - 1,428

3/29 - 1,333

3/28 - 2,406
The majority of that testing has happened in Salt Lake and Summit County. As far as I know, the sites we spun up today in Utah County are the first since this pandemic started.

All Utahns need to be tested. Every expert has stressed how critical testing is right now.
Testing will save lives. Every expert agrees.

http://TestUtah.com , @siliconslopes, the state, and the countless people who’ve been working tirelessly on this effort will soon double the amount of testing in Utah every day. DOUBLE!

To me, that’s better than, “fine, I guess."
