BAM! 'an intentional effort to keep data from being collected'

States Are Livid After Trump Sends Useless Coronavirus Testing Equipment

Governors across the country are fuming as tRump sent each state 15 rapid coronavirus test machines, but only 100 test cartridges.

Donald tRump has gone from inept to criminal
as Americans get sick and die from the virus. - PoliticusUSA

It needs appropriate headlines/labels:

Trumps massive COVID-19 crisis coverup now becomes deadly.
