1. I find it hard to believe we are only doing 7000 tests now per week instead of the 20,000

that was being done earlier. I don't think we are getting the full story. A couple of weeks ago it was announced that the Trump administration was sending in a large amount of testing centers. Are we getting these numbers?

This was from August 5:
To date, Arizona and the federal government have partnered to:

Stand up two surge testing sites in Maryvale and South Phoenix capable of conducting 60,000 tests. Additional test capacity is being sent throughout the state;
Procure an additional Roche testing machine for Sonora Quest Laboratories to further bolster testing in the state;
Deploy 170 surge medical personnel throughout the state;
With the help of Senator Martha McSally, send 100 ventilators to Arizona for critical need areas, including tribal nations;
Distribute more than 1.9 million N-95 masks, 12.1 million surgical masks, 5.8 million surgical gowns, and 380 million medical gloves to frontline medical workers;
Coordinate the donation of nearly 2,000 cases of Remdesivir for Arizona health care providers;
Allocate rapid point of care testing to more than 100 Arizona nursing homes, and more.
