Our reading of the pretty projections is were somewhere in the 7 day range well lets get more now from mike hanna he joins us live from washington mike President Trump has been updating the nation a bites the dire situation that the country faces and has warned that there will be a lot of death in the next 2 weeks. Yes indeed President Trump began his briefing with that exact statement saying that more deaths were going to come the situation is truly dire but at the same time President Trump also continued to insist that the country needs to get out of the needs to go back to work the seems to be a refrain from president trampy repeated a number of times during that particular briefing in terms of detail President Trump did mention that some 1000 military medical workers would be going to new york city to help the perceived hospitals there we heard him just say as well that military personnel will be going to other states as well presumably these would be medical workers in the majority going to other states that as the time goes by may need nor assistance as well but the key issue here and we did hear President Trump allude to that is the way in which supplies are shifted around between states in Washington State for example the pandemic easing there to a degree this releases a number of ventilators which are then returned to the federal government for disposal or distribution elsewhere we heard the same thing from the governor of new york stating that this type of interplay between the various states absolutely essential as all the states and the country as a whole prepares for the a picks off the pandemic that is when the most amount of fatalities of currying and after that the fatalities would start to drop according to various projections that weve seen. Mike trump has been trying to project in order of oxalis im saying that the country does need to get back to work and soon but there are still these incredible problems with logistics and supply and that came across quite clearly did it not in that press conference talking about the battle to see. Governors to get the supplies that they want he was also talking about at these 5 masks in the high we need the masks and we dont want other people getting them just where are the logistical problems in this and why is it taking the United States so long to get a handle on this well its taking it so long because it started so late to prepare it leaves the administration did its only in recent weeks at a sense of urgency has crept into the way the administration has been dealing with this president from according to one publication on no less than 33 occasions in the last 3 months was continually downplaying the effect of the virus certainly that is no longer the case as were hearing from him now but there was still sufficient preparation in terms of masks in terms of ventilators in terms of the even though the experts have been warning the trumpet ministration that this was to come President Trump is kind of saying that this is something that came out of nowhere nobody could have prepared for it he says however if experts are recorded back to december of warning that this type of currents could be occurring and warning that the supplies must go in so there is the shortfall throughout the United States in terms of things as essential items such as mosques such as ventilators President Trump in that briefing saying that hes now using the defense procurement act to force the manufacture of mosque 118000000000 marci says of being a manufactured tens of thousands of ventilators are being manufactured but these are only going to be come available long after the apex of the diseases hit and as we heard from the governor of new york in new york state thats expected in anything between 7. 14 days ok mike hanna there bringing us the latest from washington d.
