Trump is ending federal funding for testing.
They really don't want to have public data about this.
The unfortunate thing is that testing isn't just there for people like me who like to look at numbers. It is essential for informing about outbreaks and conducting contact tracing to stop those outbreaks from spreading.
Though some think that it may be too late for even contact tracing (that is, the amount of contact tracing that is needed is far too great than what could be provided) in some areas as community spread widens.
Trump and Vice President Mike Pence have repeatedly claimed, falsely, that testing accounts for surges of coronavirus cases.
