Nope,  the CDC hasn't mandated anything. It's wrong in determining who has the virus.  So where's mention of testing?  I think the mandate should be workers are allowed to be at work, if they test negative for Corona Virus. I'd also add an strict enforcement regime with stiff fines and jail time for  business owners who violate this mandate.  Like a scaled fine schedule.  The fine must hurt whoever violates it in the best place, the bottom line.

Correct.  These are someone from the deep state making their own wishes wistfully public, where it should be someone from the administration, likely the president himself, making it official and punishable.  Testing is one of the things that should be required, among other things.

We don't have testing kits for us yet. The testing kits are all on the front line right now. We have friends who are nurses who work for healthcare clinics. They aren't accepting covid19 patients yet. So, we are pretty on our own at this point.

Yep.  I am fully aware that Trump blew it.  Did you bother to watch Maddow's report on the virus?  But I am talking about what we will have to in some hypothetical future when we are releasing the protective isolation.  Judging by how the hedonistic people are ignoring the isolation, that ethics shift to what is best for the whole rather than best for the individual is being slow to take hold.  This is in part because of a lack of leadership.  It will unfortunately take a while.  Hopefully the states will have tests available from their own sources by then, in spite of Trump's obstruction.
