KHN Reports on Early Testing Decisions
and the Potential Lasting Impact to the Nation
A
new KHN article describes how government decisions in the early
days of the nation’s coronavirus outbreak have already impacted the magnitude
of the pandemic and may affect the country for months to come. The article
explains, for the first time, how the CDC initially sent the same number of
test kits to public health labs in all 50 states, even though the outbreaks
were highly localized at that point -- meaning that the tests didn't go to
where they were most needed.
KHN’s
reporting is part of KFF’s continuing efforts on the coronavirus outbreak. The story
also ran in The Daily Beast and, as always, KHN content is available to republish free of charge.
