Joyce, can say 1 just 1 positive thing about it president ? Your rhetoric is soooo awful. After all, we are at 2% unemployment, don’t u agree.

I’m for more testing but it doesn’t help cure anyone and it doesn’t stop the spread. Individuals need to act like they have the flu and follow precautions. These idiots want tests so they can say more people have it. We can assume more people have it. Relax.

Sorry Surgeon_General WhiteHouse we can't count on the HateNews during this emergency, they are overwhelmed with hatred.

We should be overreacting 🤔

Medicare for all

I've noticed that since all of this started msnbc hasn't had 1 single solitary positive thing to say about realDonaldTrump or a single member of his team or the government. This is absolutely disgusting. Seriously. You know exactly what you're doing and you guys are a POS!

Tests those actually feeling sick and make sure the tests are given for free... not every single person needs to be tested at this time.

150k is not logical considering trump administration.

Curious as if the criteria is too strict before requiring a test

340 million Americans. This sounds about right?

No... high risk need to isolate themselves... everyone else.. go about your business

It's so easy to criticize when you have control over nothing right MSNBC?

FuckTrump

Stop
