Ten states — five led by the GOP, five by Democrats — are seeking to implement the kind of testing strategy the Trump administration refuses to embrace
The governors are still working out what to do with them when they arrive. While the Rockefeller Foundation is developing guidelines for how to deploy the tests, the distribution decisions will be largely left up to each state’s own officials. Several governors have laid out tentative plans to strategically allocate the tests to nursing homes, schools and other settings that require essential workers to be in close quarters, rather than make them initially available to the general public.
Even so, there is still little expectation that the coalition alone will be able to curb the virus’ large-scale spread. Manufacturers BD and Quidel have already warned that demand is outstripping their supplies. And even with the 10 states getting priority treatment, the tests are expected to be delivered on a rolling basis as they are produced.
But state leaders and public health experts have long maintained that the administration’s position has been inconsistent and often unhelpful, with the Trump administration pursuing a series of its own projects while resisting calls to coordinate a more universal response.
