let's bring in lena when, professor at georgetown university school of public health. prepared is the u.s. administration to deal with this rapidly growing outbreak? top health officials are saying there is a dire lack of testing kits. this is a very quickly evolving situation and it is easy for us on the outside to look in and say, they should have done all these things differently. i think the u.s. government has done some things very well, including their initial aggressive response to try to contain the outbreak. thate other hand, i agree the lack of testing is a major misstep. ifre are probably hundreds, not thousands of people in the u.s. who have coronavirus and don't know. so there's a lot more to be done and i'm also worried about our health care system and what happens when it becomes overburdened. anchor: let's talk about leadership issues. president trump appointed his vice president as the person leading the charge. in times of national emergency, people look to the president. do you think trump is shifting responsibility just in case things go sideways? >
