WASHINGTON, April 11 — President Donald Trump on Friday said his decision on when to reopen the US economy, shuttered due to the coronavirus pandemic, will be the toughest he has ever taken. Trump, who faces a tight reelection in November, is keen to get the US economy back open after weeks of tough measures that shut down businesses and dramatically cut down on transport across the country to slow the virus’s spread.However, he also faces warnings that a premature opening would put lives at risk by allowing the virus to take a new hold.
In what will mark an important step in the process, Trump says he will be announcing members of a new task force on Tuesday.The group will include “very great doctors and business people,” as well as probably governors of states.
