far surpassing any other country in the world and public health officials here are concerned of a possible 2nd wave if you take new york city for instance once the epicenter of the pandemic in the u.s. seemingly to successfully contain the outbreak now some concerning spikes in new infections president trump though today said that the nation is turning a corner he says 50000000 of these rapid tests will be deployed to nursing homes and other vulnerable communities the remaining 100000000 going out to be divided among the states to help prop up the reopening to be used in schools and places of work. last week we grossly historic milestone when the united states conducted our 100 millionth test far more than any other country and not even close actually 2nd seems to be india with 1500000000 people and the numbers

would be probably at least $50000000.00 more test by us we've conducted more tests than the entire european union and more than all of latin america combined heidi it wasn't too long ago that don't even believe in these tests is there a feeling now that this is all too little too late. right many critics say that when the administration had a chance to take this virus seriously trump downplayed it and didn't take decisive action soon enough and the criticism goes that that led to more infections more deaths more people out of work and in fact his handling of the coronavirus pandemic is trump's single biggest weakness heading into the presidential election which happens in less than 40 days polling shows that a clear majority of americans think trump has mishandled the response to the
