US Air Force Veteran Sarah Samere on the Hurdles of Testing for COVID-19

This week on "The Tent," Ed sits down with U.S. Air Force veteran Sarah Samere to discuss the current hurdles of testing for COVID-19.

Part of a Series

Social distancing remains the name of the game as the American public works to flatten the curve and prevent the spread of COVID-19 from overwhelming the nation’s health care system. On this week’s episode, Ed speaks with CAP Action’s Ryan Collins about the relief packages Congress is working on. And later, he chats with U.S. Air Force veteran Sarah Samere about the challenges she faced to get tested for COVID-19 and receive appropriate health care in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic.
