NY Gov Cuomo made an analogy a few days ago and effectively stated "Testing (COVID) is like what missiles were to WW2"
Sorry that was an inept odd analogy IMO.
Missiles usually have a guidance system. The only main known ones were used by the Germans late in the war, were mainly ineffective infrastructure wise, and primarily served as a revenge terror weapon.
A better more relate-able analogy to WW2 should have more like, "Testing (COVID) is like the the Jeep of WW2".
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
