So, remember how the Trump administration said the reason they didn't take test kits was because they were unreliable?
Well, they're pretty much wrong from top to bottom.
The study they cite was from China and was focused on test kits produced there.
The kits that the US rejected were produced in Germany.
The study also didn't look at the performance of the test, but rather to testing on a-symptomatic individuals.
And it was retracted within days of publishing it.
TLDR: The administrations story on why they turned down test kits is still bad.
