Azar blames testing delays on states

HHS Secretary Alex Azar Sunday blamed the current delays in coronavirus testing on the states, which he said have been too slow to spend federal dollars to boost the country’s testing amid the virus's spread.

The Trump administration has frequently sought to put the responsibility for the coronavirus response on governors and local officials, even as many public health officials as well as governors have called for a coordinated national emergency response.

“Our governors have to take that initiative and get their public health labs fully up and running,” Azar said on CBS News’ "Face the Nation."

But HHS later in the day announced that it and the Defense Department were jointly investing in supplies to boost capacity of one medical company's high-volume testing system.
