Vice President Pence says the White House will make an assessment after next week as to how effective social distancing and other mitigation measures have been in stifling the spread of the virus.

Millions of people could be out of work. Children across the country are home from school as states and districts cancel classes for weeks or more.

Each of the department's 93 U.S. Attorney's Offices is appointing an official who'll be charged with prosecuting hoarding or other such cases, Barr said. Trump has faulted Powell many times for what he called poor or sluggish management at the Fed, but on Monday the president said he called the Fed chairman and told him"You've done a really good job. I was proud of him. That took courage."First Lady Melania Trump tested negative for the coronavirus, Trump revealed on Monday.

The president had continued to use the term"Chinese virus" in the face of questions and criticism, defending the phrase as a legitimate descriptor based on its origins in the Chinese province of Hubei.

It works if people pay attention and adhere to the guidelines. But ignorance and selfishness are blocking the efficacy in our country.

For Mike.

BS Vice President Pence says the White House will make an assessment after next week as to how effective social distancing and other mitigation measures have been in stifling the (profits of the ultra rich owners and investors of major corporations). Fixed it.

ooh, let me guess what they’ll decide: the economy takes priority?

I'm not listening to the White House. Im listening to the CDC and dr Amy Acton from Ohio health dept

VP has been practicing social distancing with women his whole life. This is his time to shine! TrumpVirusCatastrophe

The White House briefing are dangerous for public health and lying to the public about COVID 19 WhiteHouse realDonaldTrump

If we aren't testing everyone who is sick, how can we know where all the cases are, to make an accurate determination? VP

Honest question: How will they determine what qualifies as 'slowing the spread.' Over the last 24 hours the US has counted ~10,000 new cases of coronavirus. To me that sounds like a lot. What's the threshold? Somehow I doubt things will get that much betterr in a week. No?

Prefer to hear from state governor and city officials than WH.

How can they make assessments if the vast majority that have symptoms can't get tested?

Way too early, the virus is starting to spread more rapidly, we are only just now instituting stronger measures locally to try & stop the community spreading.

Oh good. Let me set my DVR.

and what will the numbers be by then?

Because : money, money, money 💰 💴 💵

realDonaldTrump why do we have a president who runs the country with a magic 8 ball providing his daily decisions ?

Jared?

I immediately thought of the scene in Jaws when the mayor convinces everyone that it’s safe to go back in the water.

How about we let the medical experts decide? I’m not sure I trust the guy trying to get re-elected.

Wow wealthoverhealth

Except you can’t tell the impact for at least two weeks. Short-term thinking is the enemy here.

Reasonable and sober press conference. Radical unhinged left with TDS will cause loss of human life, but that’s kind of a core platform for these monsters.

The direct question to be asked of Trump is this: how many deaths is an acceptable trade off for getting the economy going again?

America is broken. We still love you. Get your shit together. 😷😷🙏❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 Only humans matter. Love is everything.

How would Donald trump know how assess anything. And, would you believe his assessment.

Liars. Lock them up!

We just started testing. What the fuck is he going to assess against?

Ask italy. Their numbers are finally going down COVIDIOTS

From my personal observation it's not working when grocery patrons are licking their fingers to open produce bags.

Is this the run up to: we are running out of tests?

Gross.

You mean, this social distancing?

The White House occupants are not qualified to make that assessment.

So the rest of the world is wrong? Stay strong and keep distance. It's effective in not overwhelming the health care system

Well, since we do not know the true number affected & Republicans are not following the 6 foot protocol...assessing bullshit numbers is not going to show us anything...just because President Pathetic & VP Dumbshit have to keep the economy flowing or else they are definitely out..

Putting a price our our lives, Turns out that empowering an ignorant narcissist to make life and death decisions impacting the lives of 327M has deadly consequences. Many of us knew this. Too many still don't get it. Still.

If it works, they'll end it. If it isn't working, they'll end it. But sick people cannot produce for an economy, and read people don't buy stuff.

Just stop covering this mourns start covering Joe.

WhereIsFauci

How the fuck do you make that decision when the virus takes over a week to incubate?

But since their blocking tests and results reporting, we won’t know either way, will we. CharacterMatters Biden2020

No matter what, we will need to keep social distencing individually at all costs and as much as we can.

Want us to puke?

They won't care about the number of deaths, only the economic numbers. They will be remembered for what they are, criminal crony capitalists.

they already decided this yesterday when their last “juice it” to the stock market did nothing. 6 months of running up debt to keep the market falsely high, so now when you really need it, it does not work.

It didn't work in the U.S. Senate. Right Rand Paul? VP can't control his colleagues but going to judge Americans at large?

Vice President Pence must ask the top scientists what they conclude from evidence and models, and then step aside as they speak.

We are so screwed

Didn’t he cause an HIV epidemic

Meanwhile: Pence ribbed 👊🏻👈🏻

They will not possibly know enough to make any kind of assessment.

Yeah. Sure. Let the vengeful idiots lead us down the path to perdition...

They’ll lie about the effectiveness if it doesn’t fit their narrative. It’s not even debatable. They’ll lie.

We’re all going to die and it will be their fault.

Can I still get a blowjob while social distancing?
