See How Much Testing Support Your State Is Receiving from President Trump
whitehouse.gov ^ | May 12, 2020 | White House

The United States has become the undisputed world leader in Coronavirus testing. More than 9 million tests have now been completed, and this month, every single State will be able to test more people per capita than South Korea and other leading countries have.

To continue expanding capacity, the Administration is sending nearly $11 billion to help States, territories, and tribes meet testing goals. The President is also sending approximately 12 million testing swabs to States over the course of May to supplement private-sector resources.

Here is how the latest round of Federal support breaks down by State or territory:

Am still waiting on antibody/serology tests (Central CA). Without those no “big picture” on severity vs. “regular flu” and politicians will be reluctant to give up “lock-down” policies.

Is Cuomo going to use the $753 million for actual testing or he will use the money for far left activism as usual?

1,200,000 in California.

I’ll be impressed when that leading “1” is a “4”.

Pretty lame; this is where we should have been by the middle of February.

CA should have emergency supplies for pandemics given the way they’ve been warned that their festering slums in LA and SFO are contributing to hantavirus and other illnesses common to 3rd world countries. I don’t want the “central control” that the SOviets favored; let the states maintain readiness to serve all the illegal immigrants they welcome to roost in their “sanctuary”. If CA didn’t pad it’s population so heavily with undocumented people, they might not need half a billion in Federal aid to test their population.

Tell me about it.

Ever since the Bushes opened the border, the Democrats run everything (into the ground). We conservatives can’t get anything done, since the Republicans sold us down the river, thanks GWB.

We’re like in occupied territory, and many of us *CAN’T* leave (at least not for years; but the cowards running the GOP don’t care as long as those tax dollars flow (CA pays a LOT of taxes to DC, CA is a cash cow for the fedgov).

The answer is zero unless it is coming from Trump’s personal wealth.

Borrowing money when we are already in the hole for over $20 trillion is not a good idea.

They exist. The latest story is that antibodies don’t protect you. To which I say then a vaccine is no good either. Screw em all. Open it back up
