Gov. Jay Inslee of Washington state, which has been coping with the U.S. coronavirus outbreak longest, mentioned there may be “desperate need” for testing kits and testing supplies like swabs, calling for mass mobilization of manufacturing.

“We just do not have those simple things, that’s why we have to mobilize the entire manufacturing base of the United States like we did in World War II,” Inslee advised CNN’s Jake Tapper on “State of the Union.”

The governors’ feedback come as President Trump on Friday ordered automaker General Motors to make ventilators beneath the Protection Manufacturing Act, a Korean Conflict-era statute that may pressure sure American corporations to provide supplies in brief provide in instances of disaster.
