Gov. Pritzker says the state expects to be able to conduct 10,000 tests daily within the next ten days.

In his daily COVID-19 press briefing on Sunday, Gov. JB Pritzker gave an update on the State's coronavirus testing capacities. He indicates the State is currently running 4,000 tests a day with a total of approximately 28,000 tests conducted so far.

Gov. Pritzker noted experts say 10,000 tests a day will provide the state with accurate data to determine if state-mandated interventions are working.

Gov. Pritzker voiced his frustrations with the federal government over testing capabilities. He indicated the three state testing labs will be adding a third shift and additional laboratory robotics to maximize the state's daily testing capabilities.
