New Mexico Gov. Lujan Grisham raised alarms with Pres. Trump about 'incredible spikes' in coronavirus cases in Navajo Nation, according to recording of call between Trump and the nation's governors obtained by ABC News.

"I'm very worried, Mr. President," Governor Lujan Grisham said, as she followed up onto the Department of Defense last Wednesday for a 248-bed U.S. Army combat support hospital in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Grisham told Trump she had not yet received a response.

Tune into ABC at 1 p.m. ET and ABC News Live at 4 p.m. ET every weekday for special coverage of the novel"The rate of infection, at least on the New Mexico side — although we've got several Arizona residents in our hospitals — we're seeing a much higher hospital rate, a much younger hospital rate, a much quicker go-right-to-the-vent rate for this population. And we're seeing doubling in every day-and-a-half," she said.

Visitors enter and exit Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park on June 12, 2019 in Monument Valley, Ariz."We're gonna get you that hospital as quickly as we can," Trump said, while directing others in the Situation Room to look into the problem and rush work on the hospital."Boy, that’s too bad for the Navajo nation – I've been hearing that."

abc Native Americans will be wiped out not by the white man but the Chinese via their virus. Who would have thought

It won't wipe us out. We are strong Diné people.

Everyone would do well to remember how the Navajo Nation contributed to the success of World War 2 using their language for code Surely we can get them the Help they need Now

nursevictoria11 Yes. I figured this was going to happen. Especially with the Nazis involved

Don’t forget that 45pp✳️ is an admirer of Andrew Jackson, aka the Indian killer, so the Navajo’s pleas are falling on def & heartless ears.

OMG !

The same political hack that will not allow hydroxychloroquine

Where did the gov. make this conclusion from? A lot of people are getting infected and showing asymptomatic. Why does he think they will all just die from it?
