Coronavirus surge ‘is not just about more testing,’ doctor says

Dr. Ashish Jha, director of the Harvard Global Health Institute, tells TODAY that the surge in U.S. coronavirus cases has come “because we opened up too quickly and we opened up without the right safeguards in place.” He adds, “we have very good evidence that this is not just about more testing,” and calls for states with surges to impose public mask laws and do more testing and tracing.
