Republican U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson of Oshkosh is downplaying accusations that the Trump administration is reacting too slowly to the coronavirus.
He says it’s a whole new virus, so it takes time to develop a test and manufacture it. He believes vaccines will be accessible quite some time into the future.
Some members of Congress, including Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, are on voluntary self-quarantine. They were exposed to a confirmed coronavirus patient.
