Asked about the #marketcrash and the market reacting to Trump's coronavirus fumbling, HHS Secretary Alex Azar merely says, "President Trump has delivered a historically strong economy" and doesn't address other concerns held by millions.
Despite the #marketcrash and more coronavirus infections and deaths, HHS Secretary Alex Azar says he has not spoken with Trump today.
HHS Sec Alex Azar tells Fox News, "nobody is trying to minimize" the coronavirus threat. 6 minutes after he said this, Trump made a tweet attempting to say the virus isn't as big of a problem as is widely thought.

honestly based on all the premature obit writing, there's a good chance bernie wins michigan. i dunno, just let stuff happen.
everybody's like "we know what will happen." 4 years ago there was "no way" trump would win. then after that the gerrymander made it "impossible" for dems to win the house. and what, three weeks ago biden's campaign was "dead."
and of course the classic, "america won't elect a black president."

CDC Director Robert Redfield testifies on the Hill that coronavirus testing from LabCorp and Quest was "operational as of yesterday" so doctors can order tests. Trump said on Friday that "anyone who wants a test can get a test."
CDC Director Robert Redfield tells GOP Rep @HerreraBeutler, "We've under-invested in the public health labs" and "there's not enough equipment, not enough people, there's not enough internal capacity,"
.@RepLoisFrankel: "It is absolutely wrong and inappropriate to call [coronavirus] the 'Chinese corona virus.' I assume you would agree with that?"

CDC director Robert Redfield: "Yes."

But @GOPLeader and other Republicans have chosen to use racist terminology.

Doing a town hall on Fox News is stupid and it gives a boost to racism, misogyny and lies. You're helping that channel to kill and hurt innocent people.
Every Democrat who has done this during this cycle will bear some responsibility - a tiny bit, but something - when that channel inspires someone to kill or hurt the vulnerable. It shouldn't be done and there's no political upside to it.
Here's what you're helping when you appear on Fox

Praise for @POTUS @realDonaldTrump's Coronavirus Response. Here are the TOP TWEETS: Name of person, then their tweet follows.
Rep. Matt Gaetz
The country can take great comfort in the fact that @realDonaldTrump has built teams to solve problems his entire life. America is armed with some of the best scientists in the world and in a better position to address coronavirus under @POTUS's leadership.
Governor Larry Hogan
On behalf of all my colleagues, I want to thank @POTUS for putting @VP in charge of the federal response. It’s good to have a former governor running this coordinated response as state and local officials lead our preparedness efforts on the front lines.

🦠Ivan Hung, Chief of Infectious Diseases at the #HongKong University Medical faculty says that the 2 most important things you can do to prevent #COVID19 is wash hands AND wear a mask‼️People are shedding virus BEFORE they know they are infected🦠#CoronaOutbreak #coronavirus
🦠Why don’t they want us to buy masks⁉️There is a shortage... HHS Secretary Alex Azar said there were 30 million N95 respirators in the National Stockpile and the US needs 10x that amount to adequately supply health care workers. #coronavirus #COVID19 cnn.com/2020/02/29/hea…
🦠"The overwhelming priority right now is to ensure that all of our hospital frontline staff, clinical staff, have that level of protection," Dr. Hotez said. "'Cause if they go down there is going to be NOBODY.” 😳#COVID19 #coronavirus

Following the initial reports from China – and anticipating multiple agency aspects of U.S. government would need a unified command structure – on January 30th President Trump assembled a unified task force to coordinate all response efforts across the totality of government.
The task force is coordinated through the National Security Council. It is composed of subject matter experts from White House and several United States Government agencies, and it includes some of the Nation’s foremost experts on infectious diseases.

All within the space of 3 hours.

Corruption kills.
HHS Secretary Alex Azar refuses to say a #coronavirus vaccine would be affordable to all, also appears to contradict Trump's claim that the virus will disappear once it gets warmer #Covid_19 independent.co.uk/news/world/ame…
The CDC has been informed of the first case of the #coronavirus in a person who did not recently return from a foreign country or have contact with a confirmed case #Covid_19
