Biden is shedding light on the impact of testing capacity.
Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is ripping President Donald Trump’s previous promise on coronavirus testing availability, calling it a “baldfaced lie.”
In The Washington Post op-ed published on Monday, Biden attacked the president’s coronavirus response efforts and claims about testing capacity.
The former vice president recalled Trump’s remarks about testing availability back in March, noting that “it’s been more than two months since Trump claimed that ‘anybody that wants a test can get a test.’”
Biden criticized Trump’s claim as he argued that testing is still a widespread problem in the United States.
As more than 40 states prepare for phased reopening this month, Biden is stressing the importance of widespread testing and how critical it is to implement safe protocols for “responsible reopening.
