'There are large sections of our country, probably can go back much sooner than other sections,' the president said at Wednesday's coronavirus task force briefing.

President Donald Trump said he expects that"large sections" of the United States could open up before others at the coronavirus task force briefing on Wednesday.

The president then said he'd signed major disaster declarations for a number of states, including New York, California, Washington, Iowa, Louisiana, Texas and Florida. The declarations allow these states to access federal funding for crisis counseling and emergency protective measures. "I'm not going to do rash or hastily, I don't do that. But the country wants to get back to work. Our country was built to get back to work. We don't have a country where they say, 'Hey, let's close it down for two years.' We can't do that. It's not our country. So we're going to be talking, and it could be we'll do sections of our country.
