N.Y. Gov. Andrew Cuomo plans to discuss coronavirus testing with Pres. Donald Trump
Показать описание
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said the state has struggled to navigate the international supply chain for test kits since President Donald Trump has left it up to individual states to procure their own tests. Cuomo added that he will focus on coronavirus testing during his meeting Tuesday afternoon with Trump at the White House.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo said President Donald Trump committed at a meeting in Washington Tuesday to “work together” to double New York’s rate of testing for the coronavirus.
New York, the epicenter of the Covid-19 crisis in the U.S., is currently testing about 20,000 people a day, Cuomo said in an MSNBC interview after leaving a White House meeting with Trump.
Cuomo said he and Trump want to work toward doubling that number to 40,000 tests per day.
“It’s a very aggressive goal and we said that we would work together to meet that goal, so it was a very good conversation,” Cuomo said.
The governor also said that Trump “seemed very open and understanding” about the need for states to receive federal funding as they struggle to work toward reopening their economies.
“The states are in desperate shape and everything’s being left to the states to do the reopening ... They don’t provide any funding to the state government,” Cuomo said. The president “said the next piece of legislation that passes, he’s going to be open to that,” Cuomo said.
Earlier in the day, Cuomo told reporters he wanted to wanted the meeting to focus on “testing, and what does testing mean, and how do we do it, and how can the federal government work in partnership with states?” He said New York has struggled to find international suppliers for test kits since Trump has left it up to individual states to procure their own tests and supplies — most of which is sold in China.
