Trump says US will pass 10 million coronavirus tests this week, states will receive $11 billion

Donald Trump said Monday that the country is on track this week to pass 10 million coronavirus tests conducted, and announced that states would be receiving additional funding for testing.

Trump said the U.S. has been conducting about 300,000 tests per day and the number will go up "substantially."

"This week the United States will pass 10 million tests conducted, nearly double the number of any other country," Trump said.

States will be receiving $11 billion in funds from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act to help governors meet their testing goals, the administration announced Monday.

but many of the republican politicians all over the country have to hate Trump! He goes from blowing off testing to reversing completely, and now trying to ramp it up. Recent news of breakouts in rural areas must really have them spooked.

You know, given that everything that comes out of the Tangeranus' piehole is a FUCKING LIE, it's pretty axiomatic.

I also kinda doubt that China hasn't tested at least 10M people yet.
