"That is the big that is the biggest issue," said Conway.
"We can support what the states and localities need to do in terms of testing. So but this will take a while because the testing ecosystem and infrastructure is being built for this unprecedented pandemic."
This comes also as protestors have come out in several states over the past several days demanding their states reopen.
"I think that's just one way of somebody articulating how some some of these measures seem more for control and protection and that they are physically distanced from common sense," said Conway.
"So I think every state is different. And the president has made very clear, as we all have, the governors will have the final say as to when and how and where. Excuse me. They reopened their economies."
In states such as Oklahoma, Texas and Virginia, small-government groups and supporters of right-wing causes have united behind a deep suspicion of efforts to shut down daily life to slow the spread of COVID-19.
Frustrated demonstrators have also visibly ignored social distancing rules while holding signs and protesting together.
Trump last week unveiled a framework for governors to follow to open their states back up. But he acknowledged they will have the final say on when their state is ready.
For most people, the coronavirus causes mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough that clear up in two to three weeks.
For some, especially older adults and people with existing health problems, it can cause more severe illness, including pneumonia and death. The vast majority of people recover.
