COVID-19 Is Spreading Like Wildfire In The US. Why Is There Less Testing For It Now?

Just 18 days after the US marked 150,000 lives lost from the novel coronavirus COVID-19, the death toll surpassed 170,000.

Johns Hopkins University data says more than 5.4 million people have been infected and 170,052 have died.

Worryingly, COVID-19 is still spreading rampantly, but there is less testing available.

At the same time, the testing that is available is returning high positivity rates.
