Soon Covid-19 Will Be Gone

Is this a surprise? Trump has been remarkably consistent in his belief that testing is the cause of all of the US's Covid-19 problems. Stop testing and the crisis is over. Yes, lots of people will be dying, but that's an easier problem for his loyal Republican followers, including state governors, to ignore.

The White House confirmed on Wednesday it will no longer fund 13 testing sites, including seven in Texas, despite that state reporting record highs in the number of coronavirus cases.

Funding and support for the sites will end this month, even as Covid-19 cases surge across the US. The sites are in Texas, Illinois, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Colorado.
