But the fda has approved two new tests, all in the hopes of ramping up testing soon.

Came after the president defended a move that he would be winding down the Coronavirus Task force by months end. Are you saying Mission Accomplished . No, no, not at all. The Mission Accomplished is when its over. When its over, jim, Mission Accomplished. Hes talking about stopping the Coronavirus Task force at a time when deaths go over 70,000. Think about this. Weve just gone over 70,000 deaths in america. The media needs to make up their minds about whether they want the Coronavirus Task force briefings or not.
