    a company/startup seems to have fixed the scale problem of testing:

    https://www.billiontoone.com/cov…

    "BillionToOne developed a novel qSanger-COVID-19 Test that is more than 30x higher throughput than existing quantitative PCR (qPCR) methods and is highly accurate and cost-effective.

    Combining the unused Sanger sequencer capacity from the Human Genome project and the proprietary machine learning algorithm, BillionToOne’s qSanger-COVID-19 unlocks millions of daily testing capacity worldwide.

    Test reagents will be made available in 2 weeks to clinical laboratories, pending manufacturing of kits and Emergency Use Authorization from FDA."

    We’re unlocking 1+ million COVID-19 testing capacity per day in the US alone
    using a unique testing protocol with 30X+ higher throughput
