Cotton calls CDC's botched testing rollout 'probably the worst mistake' of US coronavirus response
Excerpt: Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., a regular critic of China's handling of the coronavirus pandemic, told the "Fox News Rundown" podcast Wednesday that the delay in rolling out testing was the biggest setback to the U.S. response to the outbreak. "Probably the worst mistake the federal bureaucracy has made is when the Centers for Disease Control [CDC] insisted on doing its own test, manufacturing its own tests from scratch, rather than, if you will, letting a thousand flowers bloom in some of our great laboratories and companies all around the world," Cotton said. "The FDA as well, you know, allowed the CDC to do that and then was slow on certifying all the possible tests in early February. That's regrettable." (FDA, CDC, Fauci's tests, models, predictions and endorsements. All regrettable. --Barb)
