COVID-19: Pelosi says Trump administration has ‘sometimes chaotic’ response to outbreak

U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said on Thursday that until recently, the Trump administration had mounted a “sometimes chaotic” response to the COVID-19 outbreak, criticizing the lack of some critical positions being filled and a proposed cut in the 2020 budget for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. She called on all parties to work in a bipartisan manner to ensure the country was properly prepared and could combat the virus effectively.
