Hate the term “lack of testing” how can one have a test developed and waiting for distribution for a virus that was unknown. A better term might be “limited testing”

There is a test. They're testing very few people. That is, by definition (the state of being without or not having enough of something), a lack of testing.

Why complicate this with semantics?
