PDJT on TV about to speak now on COVID-19
Correction to previous Wash state rpt - woman in her 50's not a male.
22 US hospitalized
Travel bans/checks good early move by US
Will meet w/ pharma cos. Mon @ WH
➡️New edicts coming after 2.5 hr meeting of task force
Task Force recommendations:
Travel banned Iran & any foreign nat'l who has visited Iran
US travel advisories Level 4- South Korea & Italy areas.
Coord w/ Korea & Italy on med screening
State and local officials to get funding needed
Masks - 3M will produce 35 million masks per month and working with other manufacturers to produce. Avg American doesn't need them. Need to protect patients and healthcare workers.
Risk remains low but this can change rapidly
Always said will see more cases/ will see more
Avg person mild to moderate symptoms/ remain home
Smaller % will require med attn/hospitalization
MUST Lower travel to and from impacted areas- containment
Community spread is a challenge
Need to identify, isolate and contact trace
Low risk but underscore evolving risk
ME Sidebar: BTW Fauci wasn't muzzled the other day
Community spread:
Prepare for further challenges
Don't be surprised at more community spread
Anticipate add'l cases and clusters in days ahead other than 4 community spread cases
Embrace early case recognition & contact tracing
Current risk to Amer public remains low
"hoax" is not the virus but way news is treating it politically
Fauci reaffirms - not muzzled. It was only a regroup with Pence taking over Task Force leadership .. still not muzzled.
Redfield- risk still low. Investigating community links. Transparency aim.
Fauci on morbidity- 75 -80% do well w/bad cold or bad flu/ balance need hospitalization.
Morbidity primarily health impaired/"occasionally" others die, too.
Washington woman - no travel links / no contacts they are aware of (Redfield answer)
Me: Blah blah Afghanistan questions/ past time for our troops to come home.
? Fed Reserve letter steps:
PDJT says shd have been done sooner
ed needs to lead in lower interest rates
FDA - Issued policy this a.m. on new tests. Working w/ Pharma on this now.
Me: It was announced and reported last night
Pence: HIV and MERS 2014
Worked w/ CDC on both w/ Redfield nodding his head
PDJT on markets:
Markets will come back/ take care of itself
Travel affects markets
Safety Health #1
We have to do what we have to do
Need Fed to do it's job
PDJT-
