That number is now over 200 dying at home every single day and they are not being reported as Covid19 deaths because they don’t have the capacity to test (combination of test availability and the ME just being plain overwhelmed)

Wow.

So NY is even worse than reported.

Who runs NY and NYC, again?

Who runs CDC, NIH, HHS, NSC, and intelligence agencies? That idiot dismissed all the early warnings.

"Little exemplifies that more than the way his health and human services secretary, Alex Azar, tried to get Trump to focus on the coronavirus twice in January, first on Jan. 18 and then on Jan. 30, when he warned it could become a pandemic. Trump dismissed the warning, characterizing Azar as an alarmist."

The narrative will be Republicans trying to pin this on China and incompetent blue state officials.

DeBlazio told NYorkers to go about their lives on March THIRTEEN. He failed his people.

It's not just China's that was hiding the number of the dead when the smoke from it's crematoriums was seen from space, it's China's mouth peace Tedros, too. It was his words about the open borders in Europe been more important than the virus. It was that same Tedros who hid three cholera epidemics in Africa.

I think our national debt should be cancelled when all of it is over and Tedros should be removed ASAP.

A few problems with this.

1) He doesn't, according to the US Constitution
2) He didn't 'close" anything to thus re-open
3) His claim flies in the face of every "federalism" fiber in the GOP body
4) It simply isn't and won't be safe to "re-open" unless or until there is a vaccine or testing and tracing protocols in place.

Since I haven't see anything to indicate the Administration is preparing for #4, it is hard to understand the logic other than 'we don't care how many lives it takes to get the DOW back to 30,000."

The rest of the country? Not completely back, but very soon.

The crisis is over -- the US is going to get back to work mid-May. The total death from Covid-19 will not top 60 K (just a a bad flu year) -- Sorry for the hysterical people who are predicting (hoping??) for no school until 2021 and confinement until a vaccine is found.. This is simply insane..

I don't really care if this helps Trump or not. I just don't want to be like people wishing more deaths (or a prolonged recession) because they think/hope it's the only chance to get ride of Trump...

The U.S. will go back to work in May because we have no choice.

The virus is going to hit us again and harder in the summer. We bought ourselves some time. What did we do with it?

If we didn't fully isolate, quarantine, develop a vaccine and implement a widespread testing plan, nothing.
