Covirus 19 coronavirus: the amazing virus prediction of the President of the United States, Donald Trump

President Donald Trump has increased his projection of the total number of deaths from the US coronavirus. USA Up to 100,000, 40,000 more than suggested a few weeks ago.

“Look, we’re going to lose 75,000, 80,000 to 100,000 people,” Trump said at a virtual town hall hosted by the Fox News Channel overnight.

Speaking at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, Trump described the country’s death toll, which had surpassed 68,000 as of Monday morning, as “something horrible.”

“We shouldn’t lose a person from this,” he said.

“This should have stopped in China.”

Despite the health risks, Trump said it was vital to restart the nation’s economy sooner rather than later.

“We have to reopen it safely but as quickly as possible,” he said.

As concerns about his reelection bid grow, Trump clung to his relentlessly optimistic view of the nation’s ability to recover soon.

“Everything is working,” Trump said.

“It is horrible to pass, but it is working.”

Many public health experts believe that the nation cannot safely reopen completely until a vaccine is developed. Trump stated Sunday that he believed one could be available by the end of the year.

US public health officials. USA They have said that a vaccine will probably be in a year or 18 months. But Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s leading infectious disease expert and member of the White House coronavirus task force, said in late April that it is conceivable, if a vaccine is developed soon, that it could be widely available. distribution in early January.

Although the administration’s handling of the pandemic, particularly its ability to carry out widespread testing, has come under fierce scrutiny, the president tried to blame China and said the United States was ready to start reopening.

During the Fox News interview, Trump was asked if there was enough evidence that China had misled the world about the deadly virus.

He replied, “Personally, I think they made a horrible mistake and didn’t want to admit it.

“We wanted to go in, but they didn’t want us there. They made a mistake, they tried to cover it up, like a fire … They couldn’t put out the fire.”

He said the United States government was now preparing a “strong” report on the origins of the virus and how the Wuhan Institute of Virology might have been involved.

The report, he promised, would be “very conclusive.”

“I will tell you one thing. We did the right thing and I really believe we saved 1.5 million lives,” Trump said. But he also broke with the assessment of his senior aide and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, saying it was “too early to say” that the federal government had oversaw a “success story.”

While noting that states would go at their own pace to return to normal, and that those most affected by the coronavirus would slow down, Trump said that “some states, frankly, I think they are not going fast enough.” He highlighted Virginia, who has a Democratic governor and a legislature. And he urged the nation’s schools and universities to return to classes this fall.

Federal guidelines that encouraged people to stay home and practice social distancing expired last week.

The debate continued over the governors’ movements to begin reopening the collapsing state economies after the purchase of shopping malls, salons and other nonessential businesses closed in a bid to curb a virus that has killed more than 66,000 Americans, according to a count of deaths reported by Johns Hopkins University.

The United States economy has suffered, declining at an annual rate of 4.8 percent from January to March, the government estimated last week. And approximately 30.3 million people have applied for unemployment aid in the six weeks since the outbreak forced employers to shut down and cut their workforces.

The president’s advisers nervously watched Trump’s support in various battlefield states and told him last month that if the elections were held that day, he would lose to Democrat Joe Biden.

His aides believe that restarting the economy, even with its health risks, is essential to a victory in November, and they are pressuring him to abandon discussions of the pandemic and turn to an American comeback story.

To that end, Trump will begin traveling again, with a trip to a mask factory in Arizona planned for Tuesday. The president will also speak in June at the start of the United States Military Academy at West Point.

Returning to campus to begin will require graduates to self-isolate for 14 days, but Trump insisted that the event poses no risk to cadets.

The city council, which included an appearance by Vice President Mike Pence, included a rare mea culpa: The vice president said he should have worn a face mask during a visit last week to the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota.

Pence’s failure to wear a mask violated the clinic’s guidelines and generated significant criticism.

Elsewhere in Washington, the Senate planned to reopen Monday, despite the area’s continued status as a virus hot spot and with the region still under orders to stay home.

The House remains closed as debate continues on what the next stage of the economic recovery will be like.

State and local governments are seeking up to $ 1 trillion in coronavirus costs, which has been met with some objections by Republicans in Congress.

Trump said that while he thought common ground could be found with Democrats over an infrastructure package, “We will do nothing unless we get a payroll tax cut. That is very important to the success of our country.” California and Michigan leaders are among the governors under public pressure on blockades that are still in place, while states like Florida, Georgia and Ohio are reopening their doors.

On Sunday night, Trump criticized Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer and Washington Governor Jay Inslee, also a Democrat, for his criticism, even when he praised federal coordination with most governors.

He also complained that some Democrats would rather “make people sick” than give him any credit for pushing the use of an antimalarial drug for the treatment of Covid-19, although it has not been shown to be safe and effective for that. use.
