NEW: Trump praised Abbott& #39;s new 5-minute coronavirus testing machines. But the feds are only planning to send states up to 15 each, leaked emails show. My latest, with @dvergano: https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/stephaniemlee/coronavirus-5-minute-test-abbott-trump-states">https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/s...

These emails, which were first reported on by @KHNews, show that FEMA and HHS have only planned to order enough coronavirus tests for up to 5,500 people.

Update: HHS confirms that the agency only ordered 5,500 tests in the first week for states — “because we wanted to leave market share for hospitals and other healthcare providers to purchase through the commercial sector.” https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/stephaniemlee/coronavirus-5-minute-test-abbott-trump-states">https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/s...
