“I really appreciated the White House and the president announcing that they're going to be involved heavily in fortifying testing. What we're doing right now is, and we've already gone through one iteration of this, but We're testing every staff member who works at a long term care facility on a bi weekly basis. So that's over 200,000 people that are being tested every two weeks. Fortunately, the positivity rate has been about 3%, which is lower than it is in the community.” (06:47–06:54)
