Colorado kept a large shipment of COVID-19 tests 'under wraps' so the federal government wouldn't take them, governor says
Colorado Gov. Jared Polis said Friday in an interview with Colorado Public Radio that his state kept a shipment of more than 100,000 COVID-19 tests from South Korea "under wraps" over concerns the federal government might interfere.
During a press conference Friday, he reiterated his concerns, saying that the current situation, with regard to coronavirus tests, masks, etc., is a "global free-for-all." "We don't tell anybody until they are here on the ground in Colorado," Polis said at a Friday press conference. "We have no reason to believe the feds would take any kind of seizure action once they're here. We are just worried about them cutting them off at the manufacturer during the supply chain or during customs."
