I can’t imagine saying “this is the fault of anyone in the government because they didn’t tell me what to do properly.” That just doesn’t make sense.

Straw man. No one (or hardly anyone) is saying “they didn’t tell me what to do.”

Nonsense. This is EXACTLY the kind of thing that we need government for. What we needed was early and fast action on tests. We could have had far fewer infections and probably avoided some of the economic damage, also, because less social distancing is necessary if you know who has the virus.
Who else would have the resources to take that kind of action? Who else would spend the money to take that kind of action? Private industry? Capitalists? What’s in it for them? Charge everybody who takes the test and see if you can make your money back? Good luck with that.
