Dr. Deborah Birx, the White House Coronavirus Task Force coordinator, told NBC News' "Meet the Press" Sunday that while the coronavirus trends give her "great hope" for slow reopenings over the next few months, many of the social distancing measures that have upended American life will be a constant fixture through the summer. And, while President Donald Trump and many governors press to re-open the economy, Birx said the U.S. needs a "breakthrough" on coronavirus testing to help screen Americans and get a more accurate picture of the virus' spread. Birx said the task force intends to continue working with states to scale up testing for those sick with the virus.

But she added that there needs to be a significant breakthrough with antigen testing, which can discover whether someone had already had the virus and can help "screen large numbers of individuals quickly."
