CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “[W]hen you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that’s a pretty good job we’ve done… It’s a little like the regular flu that we have flu shots for. And we’ll essentially have a flu shot for this in a fairly quick manner… This is a flu. This is like a flu… [W]e’re testing everybody that we need to test. And we’re finding very little problem.”
