Romney Says Trump Unprepared for Coronavirus

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) told senior Trump administration officials Tuesday that they are not adequately prepared for the possibility the coronavirus may spread more widely in the United States, The Hill reports.

Said Romney: “I’m very disappointed in the degree to which we’ve prepared for a pandemic, both in terms of protective equipment and in terms of medical devices that would help people once they are infected. At this stage, I think we are substantially underinvesting in what would be appropriate for a setting which could be serious.”

He added: “I think we should be pulling out all the stops.”
