Drive-through testing and special testing booths
protected healthcare workers while dramatically increasing
testing capacity. And manufacturers were able
to keep up with the volume. South Korea also
stepped up production of PPE to protect health workers
and the public alike. Early adoption of testing
would save South Korea. At the same moment
in the United States, testing was still halted,
and the nation was blind to where and how
the virus was spreading. Because of all we've done, the risk to the American
people remains very low. When you have 15 people, and
the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close
to zero, we're doing great
