President Donald Trump delivers remarks about protecting America's senior citizens during the coronavirus pandemic.
RELATED: Here are the six new possible symptoms of COVID-19
COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, is disproportionately affecting senior citizens, especially those seniors with comorbidities such as heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and respiratory issues. The United States has surpassed 1 million confirmed cases of COVID-19, according to Johns Hopkins University data, but daily new cases are in decline, suggesting that the social distancing practices and other mitigations strategies are working. President Trump has announced a task force to discuss how to return people to work and spur the economy back into growth.

I am embarrassed for us as a nation that we picked this ignoramus that tries to talk about medicine the same as finances. Truth is as of February 2020 I’ve come to realize he is a professional bullshitter that has for most of his life either Bullshiit or bullied everyone around him to get where he is. I’m no one but a frontline emergency room nurse of 15 years. I don’t know politics or finances but I know medicine & I know the truth about testing, treatments & vaccines. This man is gambling American lives for his own ego, his own future, his children’s future by simply playing bs. His bluff is called. He’s not a leader he’s not even intelligent he’s a manipulator & bully.
As of February 2020? After 4 uears in the white house?
BIGLEY! Ok…
Ventilators ffs zzzzzzz yawn
Calling people essential and not paying them like they are is mad insulting

@35carmi Trump has been accused of rape so your point?
You kidding? Flynn was accused of a crime he didn’t commit for a crime that never happened. Ruining his life and reputation, now you see FBI paper work showing they wanted to lie set him up to fire him. Clear his name and put him back in power so he can hunt down the corrupt

Why should the federal government fund a state and local project?
@Tom Thumb cause they fund corporate business all the time–monsanto, lockheed martin, big pharma, big ag , etc to the tune of billions a year, that’s why
Order 66 on coronavirus!
谢谢川普总统，他太难了
JUST IN CASE YOU NEED IT EXPLAINED ONE MORE TIME:
You wake up with a terrible cough, a fever, and severe body aches. Immediately, you rush to the doctor. Unfortunately, you’re diagnosed with COVID-19. For the last two weeks, you’ve been unaware that you were infected. For the last two weeks, you’ve ignored “the rules,” gotten together with some close friends for pizza, had a few people over, even visited some parks and beaches. You figured, “I don’t feel sick,” and “I have the right to keep living my normal life!”
With your diagnosis, you spend the next few days at home on the couch, feeling pretty crappy; but then you’re well again because you’re young, healthy and strong. Lucky you.
But your best friend caught it from you during a visit to your house, and because she didn’t know she was contagious, she visited her 82-year-old grandfather, who uses oxygen tanks daily to help him breathe because he has COPD and heart failure.
Now, he’s dead.
Your co-worker, who has asthma, caught it too, during your little pizza get-together. Now, he’s in the ICU, and he’s spread it to a few others in his family, too–but they won’t know that for another couple of weeks yet.
The cashier at the restaurant where you picked up the pizza carried the infection home to his wife, who has MS, which makes her immuno-suppressed. She’s not as lucky as you, so she’s admitted to the hospital because she’s having trouble breathing. She may need to be placed in a medically-induced coma and intubated; she may not get to say goodbye to her loved ones. She may die surrounded by machines, with no family at her bedside.
All because you couldn’t stand the inconvenience of a mask; of staying home; of changing your familiar routines for just a little while.
#SocialDistancing = It’s not about YOU.
VERY WELL SAID!!!
I wish everyone understood this!!!!
@P Elayne Poston me too
Just testing only lol how many they have test already..
Trump, “Let the elderly perish. They cannot work and thus should not eat.”
That is his true message.
Michael Ojeda that is what bill gates do
Isn’t that what the Gov. Of Texas said?
