Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar explains why the CDC doesn't know the exact number of people who have been tested for the novel coronavirus as the US death toll rises. #CNN #News
HHS secretary: We don’t know how many have been tested yet
this is what you get when you appoint a former big pharma CEO and lobbyist to head HHS.
@Leon Anthony I’m down with that
@William H Is schmeg an important crop in your native Russia?
All very well planned. There is a method to the king’s madness!
World: Italy is Closed
USA: What test?
@Robert Clawson Rather than call you names, I suggest you research before you comment, because what you wrote is simply untrue. The Obama administrations response was immediate and intense.
@Sean Bailey You research. Show me. I was there. Try again. No travel bans. None. None on direct travel from Mexico or Africa. Mexico City closed down. Put up or shut up. Intense. What BS.
@Robert Clawson You called me a liar. I will not converse with you further.
@Sean Bailey I said put up or shut up. Feel free not to put up and to shut up. Obama did not stop flights from Mexico City that was shut down. Did not shut the border with Mexico and talked about vigilance with millions of Mexicans pouring in he talked the talk and didn’t walk the walk. https://abcnews.go.com/Health/SwineFlu/story?id=7456439&page=1
Trump: Everyone can get tested, the test is so beautiful and perfect just like my Perfect Phone Call.
Yes, He actually said that.
@Nexus Six Tronald J Dump the smartest most honest president ever
@SE Morgan yeah I think the health care insurance companies have my well being at the top of cocerns. HAHAHAHA
@William H your boyfriend said you need to be nicer
@Mike X mysteriously lame …. big party happening now in UK I heard 250,000 people or so and all is ok….
From the Head Phoney
Holyshit!!!! Did he just say most of the tests are going to Labs that don’t report to the CDC? They are literally doing everything they can to keep people from knowing what the numbers are! Freaking unbelievable!
@Gino Jones you are an IDIOT!!!! Nothing in your post is true. People like you do nothing but spread misinformation. What we need is Doctors giving us info not a person that thought if we pray hard enough hiv wouldn’t infect others not to mention the whole needles bullcrap. YAY the administration will be our saviors!!!
@DAUGHTER JUDAH That rhetoric is dangerous. This virus doesn’t care if your black or white or American, Chinese etc..No one has immunity, it’s a brand new virus.
@SD 619 I GUESS I MUST KEEP ON SAYING THIS….NO BLACK PEOPLE HAVE CORONA…OUR ORISHAS N ANCESTORS HAVE US COVER…REST YOUR BRAIN FAMILY U R OK
its like the cameras not working in Epsteins cell….emails dont work between lab and CDC, all they need to do is set up secure email system and boom yous end the number its like magic
” The tests are in the mail. “
yeah E MAIL.
It’s all about keeping your body’s ph at it’s perfect state, it’s known that an acidic pH body allows anaerobic pathogens (CORONAvirus)a perfect incubation environment. If you are infected vaccinations won’t help you, Don’t be a Host to CORONAVIRUS and balance your pH. Colloidal silver, oregano oil, alkaline water, MMS protocol of Jim Humble etc. https://youtu.be/6FOv1gVpTpE. Don’t believe the fake news.. be smarter save humanity tell anyone 🙏
yeah and thats just a cold sore on his lip
Soooo basically we’re gonna let this spread through the country while we pretend to be trying to stop it.
@Josey Wales it’s called prevention.
Why doesn’t he know this? It’s his job to know, good God!!
Trump administration doesn’t want you to know. It’s all about his re-election.
they “think” they’re going to put out a matrix for guidelines later this week…it all “depends” on data… but we don’t have any data on how many people have been tested. bottom line.. we have no idea what we’re doing.
State of Maine just got their test kits which explains why they don’t have any cases. Tricky ha
I just tested positive for swamp fever.
Could anyone detect a shred of transparent honesty by the HHS Secretary ? No..me neither.
@Some Person he had absolutely nothing to do with Epstein.
James Stewart …does your mommy know you’re using her computer?
Nope, none, nada, nil, zero, yada, yada…
Thank you CNN for pressing the absolute LIAR!!!!
Isn’t the whole idea is to track and keep accurate numbers so they can try and get a handle on what happens? They track everything else with detail.
Yes, but they can’t force non government labs to report to them.
The same way those local jails are told not to follow ICE rules.
I wonder what Edward Snowden thinks of all this
Except for all the kidnapped kids they still can’t find! No intention of reuniting.. :'(
They don’t need to track how many coronacold tests they’ve done, it doesn’t even matter. Coronacold doesn’t need to be tracked, it’s not like the menstrual cycles of teenage border crossers! It’s much less important… it’s more like who the teenage border crossers’ parents are – in other words: who even CARES?!
We’re the only country who doesn’t give a damn about stopping this
@Jetstom Jetstom don’t tell people that then they can’t complain
Edward Wild It’s been well proven not to trust CNN! I Trust God, and Trump because God made him president! I’m not worried! The Godless should worry!
We’ve got millions of sports addicts and if they are told they can’t come to the stadium,the park,or the arena,and the players refuse to play when there is no fans,the owners will be forced into bankruptcy because of the cost of these fanless venues and the players multi-million dollar salaries!
this guy sounds like a snake. i wouldn’t even buy aspirin from this guy.
@EARTH IS seriously FLAT You are a very sick individual….a leftist tool who has no idea what the hell you are talking about. That anyone would buy into your ‘balance your pH’ bullshit is what is really stunning.
The news reporter? Well DUH 🙄 he works for CNN!
he’s jewish
If you get the virus (any flu virus), avoid aspirin and every other fever reducing medication unless your fever is severe. Fever is not a symptom, it’s your body’s natural defense. Fever reduces the rate of cell multiplication, including the virus. If you lower it, you will feel good for a day or so and then risk pneumonia…
how to contain the virus US style: don’t test …
The development of the first test kit was a failure and a minor disaster. Such test development is as much art as science. Over one million test kits capable of over two million tests are scheduled to be produced, packaged, and shipped this week. Let’s see how that goes.

@Karl K – And other countries they got their tests FREE from WHO (World Health Organization). Donnie said we’ll make our own, so we can charge $3000 apiece for them!
@Purple Flame Tarot why we didn’t take WHO tests until we got ours running, I will never understand
how to keep europeans calm except the italians and spain france but I mean north: do not report the dead ones just a few but not most…
I went to get tested yesterday and I couldn’t get it
Just say “NO” it’s not that hard you jerk, campaign rallies are crazy at the moment !!!
The first reported case in South Carolina was in Charleston County, where the guy had actually gone to that stupid rally in North Charleston. THAT’S WHERE HE GOT IT. And now seeing the news about what’s going on in DC, it was probably spread by Trumps freaking ground team.
Well how about Bernie and Biden rallies? How come you don’t tell them to stop?
@EARTH IS seriously FLAT #Cult45 at its best. Pedaling lies and disinformation for #TrumpTheWannabeDictator
@Randy Smith Bernie and Biden rallies have been cancelled because they aren’t utter morons. They aren’t careless imbeciles.
@Sol Manilla … Pssst The Democrats have rallies too!!!
Oh don’t worry, the explosive outbreak it just around the corner.
it’s coming….. we have 224 new cases today…. and they have spread to how many at the stores, work, public….etc….

Azar: “… at no time has a public health official who wanted to get an individual tested for novel coronavirus has been unable to get them tested through the CDC’s labs or other labs authorised by the CDC …”. Not true. A doctor from the Care Center in Kirkland said yesterday that he was unable to get his patients tested – and this is the epicenter of the virus in Seattle.
Alison B yup!! I was going to make that comment as well. They have been asking for more tests and could not get any. What a liar that guy is.
“My lips are moving but I am not really saying much of anything.”
No, he’s saying a lot if you know what he’s talking about. Sadly, most of that information was from emails that he and I have had recently on how to somewhat do the job he has ahead of him better. He’s a family member (he’s not part of the main Azar family), Trump has really has gimped the power or authority he has had up till now. Sadly, Trump isn’t giving him and other the tools and resources they need to do their job. I mean, it’s gotten to the point of me (Doctor of Science) as a famliy member helping him/others get a grasp of the situation, help with knowledge and information, resource locating, plus how to deploy everything into a solution.
@Commodore4eva So, in other words, “ditto”.
