There’s not enough testing in U.S., Gottlieb warns

Former FDA chief Gottlieb: US is probably diagnosing 1 in 10 infections nationally
1:47 p.m. ET — The U.S. needs a higher capacity and more even distribution of coronavirus testing to accurately capture outbreak levels, former Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb told CNBC.

Gottlieb warned even the current testing levels of 500,000 Covid-19 tests per day is not enough to detect all new patients. He also expressed concern with where tests are going, saying Texas and Florida are falling behind in testing because resources are not equally distributed across the country, CNBC’s Will Feuer reports.

“There’s a lot of conversations going on right now about deploying testing in the workplace and also in schools and I’ve been privy to some of those conversations with my proximity to some of the testing companies,” Gottlieb said. “Employers don’t want to be the ones getting the results, taking possession of the tests, so there’s been a reluctance to leap right now.”

Gottlieb’s comments come after White House health advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci said Tuesday that the U.S. could hit over 100,000 new cases per day if the country stays on its current trajectory. Gottlieb asserted that the country is already at that benchmark, the testing just can’t keep up. —Alex Harring
