“I thank Senator Blunt and Senator Murray for their cooperation this month in this series of six hearings that we have had on COVID-19. I think it is very important for the American people to know that while there is a vaccine down the road, the tests are coming, the fast tests, and the treatments are coming.

The experts all said the following: If you want to contain the disease, if you want to go back to school and back to college and back to work and out to eat and maybe even see a little football, stay 6 feet apart, wash your hands, and wear a mask. I yield the floor. I suggest the absence of a quorum. The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Braun). The clerk will call the roll. The senior assistant legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.”
