The testing capacity exists, if you count devices that have (still) not been approved for use. That is the primary nature of of the failure here.

This is a state Senator saying that there isn't enough reagent that is needed to prepare the samples for testing:

So if that is true, the testing capacity isn't going to be limited just by device approvals. Also need to establish the protocols for other reagents and so on.
