CHINA/CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “My fellow Americans: Tonight, I want to speak with you about our nation’s unprecedented response to the coronavirus outbreak that started in China and is now spreading throughout the world.
Today, the World Health Organization officially announced that this is a global pandemic…
To keep new cases from entering our shores, we will be suspending all travel from Europe to the United States for the next 30 days… These restrictions will also not apply to the United Kingdom…
Additionally, last week, I signed into law an $8.3 billion funding bill to help CDC and other government agencies fight the virus and support vaccines, treatments, and distribution of medical supplies.”
