US is testing too much

The US federal government plans to stop funding and support for 13 coronavirus testing sites in five states on June 30, according to reports from Talking Points Memo and CNN.

The 13 affected sites are located in Texas, Illinois, New Jersey, Colorado, and Pennsylvania. They were set up early on in the outbreak by the federal government to amp up testing capabilities and take some of the burden off local and state governments.

Funding for these test sites expire June 30, and federal officials are said to have decided not to extend it.
