I want to thank our witnesses for appearing before the subcommittee today to provide an update on where we are on the areas that they are so involved in on covid19 as we continue to be challenged by this pandemic in the country we know that 195,961 americans have died as part of the pandemic, and 6. 6 million have tested positive during the process of testing in the pandemic. This has rapidly swept across the globe, and even countries who thought their cases were contained are facing new outbreaks and dealing with those new and unanticipated outbreaks. This is a new disease in many ways. And even after 9 months we still know relatively little about this disease or coronavirus generally. This has hindered our Public Health response.
