The CDC abruptly changed Covid testing rules to meet Trump’s desire for less testing.
In a stunning reversal, the CDC Abruptly Changed its Position on Testing.
After weeks of encouraging people to get tested if they may have been exposed to COVID-19, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention abruptly changed course this week and is now telling the public testing might not be necessary.
The Trump administration’s testing coordinator, Adm. Brett Giroir, defended the move as trying to prevent a “false sense of security” that some people have after getting a negative test result.
