| 0:00.0 | Answers then, thank you very much. I am Chris Cuomo. Welcome to Primetime. It's an important night. |
| 0:04.6 | The threat to us is not coronavirus. It's how we handle it. The latest, the VP says, |
| 0:10.4 | there aren't enough tests. It's unacceptable. The president said he added under control. |
| 0:14.7 | He doesn't, and apparently there is no cure for this president's viral lack of veracity. |
| 0:19.6 | But we have something special for you tonight. A doctor who believes there could be a quicker |
| 0:25.2 | way to identify the virus that you don't have to do it through the test kits. He's brought the |
| 0:30.5 | X-rays to show us what he discovered. What do you say? Let's get after it. |
| 0:40.9 | All right, listen, you got to give the vice president this much. He's applying a rare |
| 0:44.6 | antiseptic to this administration. He's telling the truth. |
| 0:47.6 | We don't have enough tests today to meet what we anticipate will be the demand going forward. |
| 1:00.0 | Not enough testing kits to meet the demand. In the richest country with weeks to prepare, |

| 1:11.0 | And if it doesn't, it's Obama's fault. Now, look, we know the kits are valuable. So much so that |
| 1:16.0 | they just airdrop some onto this cruise ship that we're showing you right now. It's sitting off |
| 1:19.7 | the coast of San Francisco because some on board are showing symptoms. You have to know what you're |
| 1:25.4 | dealing with. So you can give people the symptomatic treatment. So we can see how many people get better |
| 1:30.8 | and who need more help. Good news. We have someone who thinks they know another way to diagnose the |
| 1:36.8 | virus without the testing kits. This is about medicine. That's a mumbo jumbo, all right? Maybe it's |
| 1:42.1 | quicker. Maybe it isn't. The doctor's name is Adam Bernheim. Okay? He's been studying the spread |
| 1:48.4 | with a team of doctors at Mount Sinai Hospital here in New York. Google that Mount Sinai and you'll |
| 1:54.5 | see this place is no joke. He is a cardiothoracic radiologist duck for the lay people, cardio, heart, |
| 2:03.1 | thoracic, the lungs and the upper portion of the body and the interplay. This is your specialty. |
