The Trump administration is prepared to send all 50 states enough COVID-19 tests for at least 2% of their populations to boost reopening efforts

today ahead of the White House press briefing, where Trump is expected to elaborate on the plan, which comes after weeks of public health experts warning that the country needs much more testing in order to safely reopen.

So far, 1.6% of the population—around 5.4 million Americans—have been tested for coronavirus, according to the COVID Tracking Project.and Harvard University, Ashish Jha, director of the Harvard Global Health Institute, said: “You can’t just take the national number and scale test availability to states by their population. You have to base it on the size of the outbreak in a state.”500,000. Experts say that’s how many daily COVID-19 tests the U.S.

The researchers found that testing needs vary greatly on a state-by-state basis, with states like Alaska requiring only 68 to 145 tests per day while hard-hit states like New York need upwards of 100,000 tests per day.

testing for 2% of the population is not enough more than that need to be tested to send everyone back to work. Many will need to be tested multiple times

That is like 2 test for every 100 humans This will never work what a joke .'Anybody who wants a test can get one'. Are you serious I wonder the price per test and who is selling them 🤔 Are they kicking back $$$$ to Fump ijs
