CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/JOE BIDEN/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “If Trump and his team understand how critical testing is to their safety — and they seem to, given their own behavior — why are they insisting that it’s unnecessary for the American people? And why does the president insist on trying to turn this into yet another line of division, […]

CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “If we didn’t get the tests, if we did no tests in the White House, you’d be up complaining, ‘Why aren’t you getting tests for the White House?’ See, we can’t win, because if we didn’t get the tests, you’d be up — I understand you very well, better than you understand […]

CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “To battle a virus, my administration marshaled every resource at our nation’s disposal: public, private, military, economic, scientific, and industrial — all at your disposal.

CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “[A member of the Vice President’s staff] tested very good for a long period of time, and then all of a sudden, today she tested positive. She hasn’t come into contact with me… This is why the whole concept of tests aren’t necessarily great. The tests are perfect, but something can happen […]

CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “I just had a test, as you probably heard. In fact, I had one yesterday and I had one today, and it’s negative. Mike just had a test, and it’s negative. But they do the tests, and it just shows you that the fallacy — it’s what I’ve been saying: Testing is […]

CHINA/CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “So the media likes to say we have the most cases, but we do, by far, the most testing. If we did very little testing, we wouldn’t have the most cases. So, in a way, by doing all of this testing, we make ourselves look bad. For instance, they would say we […]

CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/ECONOMY/JOE BIDEN/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “The choice between the economy and public health is a false one—if we don’t beat the virus, we’ll never get back to full economic strength and will lose countless lives.

CONGRESS/CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19: “Interesting? By Congress not wanting the special 5 minute testing apparatus, they are saying that they are not ‘essential’.

CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/JOE BIDEN/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “On March 6th, Donald Trump said: “Anybody that wants a test can get a test.” It was a lie then, and it’s still not true nearly two months later. It’s a disgrace, and it’s slowing efforts to reopen safely. This administration needs to act immediately to surge testing nationwide.” -Joe Biden, Twitter.com, […]

CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/JOE BIDEN/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “We are now several months into this crisis, and this administration refuses to own up to the original sin of its failed response — the failure to test.

CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/JOE BIDEN/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “We should be running multiple times the number of diagnostic tests we’re performing right now. And we should be ready to scale up a second form of testing: rapid serology tests to tell who has already been infected with the coronavirus and has antibodies. This isn’t rocket science; it’s about investment […]

CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/JOE BIDEN/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “In recent days, there’s been talk that we have to choose between public health and our economy. That’s not just a false choice.
