We have a real plan. We developed a plan of preparedness. From that, a plan of action. A plan to be ready as this terrible virus got closer and closer to our shores. It is a serious time. Just moments before i was able to come on tonight and talk with you, our Health Officials came to me and said now, we do have our first positive confirmed in the eastern panhandle. From that, i would tell you this, we knew it was coming. Weve prepared for this. And we shouldnt panic. We should be cautious. We should be concerned, but we should not panic. We should go ahead and try to live our lives as best we can. But again, we should not panic. We should not be fearful. We should not be afraid. We should be smart at this time. We should absolutely not be weak. And we ought to be West Virginia mountaineer strong always. I know at this time, there has been all kinds of inconvenience. Our kids have been out of school, we canceled the state basketball tournament. You want to go to a nursing home and see maybe a mom or dad, and cant go at this time. For all of that, i apologize. Because i am terribly sorry. There is also the economic component of this. And as you look at the economic component, ive said over and over and over that our nation and our state is going to have to step up and keep you whole as best we possibly can. I can assure you that my real friend, donald trump, is absolutely all on board with trying to do just that. And i assure you from the standpoint of the state of West Virginia and our legislatures, we will do the same. Now, in addition to that, there is the health concern. This is where i really feel the most pain. If by chance, i left a stone unturned and at the end of the day, you know, in trying to do something to cure an convenience or economic issue, i exposed others to a situation where you lost a loved one. How do we overcome that . How do we replace that . It just cant be done. I tell you without any question, the last days or the last weeks have been tough. They have been lonely, tough for our family, and all of you who have been good enough to send many, many, many prayers. Like i said, this is a serious problem. Tonight, im going to give you a pathway to solving this problem. Im telling you just this, and i am tonight mandating that we close restaurants, we close bars, and we close our casinos. Now with that, we will be able to have carry out at our bars, restaurants, but we have to close casinos and we have to close our restaurants and bars from the standpoint of people gathering in those and transmitting this terrible disease. Or potentially transmitting. But i said i was going to give you a pathway, and i will ask you something really, really special. Tonight, youve got to join me. We are all in this boat together. We have to do this. The pathway to absolutely do prevention ofthe this disease spreading. This is a once in all of our lifetime event that is happening here. A pandemic. None of us have ever gone through a pandemic. But this is real. And it is really concerning. Now, here is the pathway. This disease, our power, our power to combat this disease is being apart from one another. Our power is already at work in that our communities are diverse and in different spots and all of the things working for us. Our power is just this. We have to take seriously all of the hygiene recommendations. We have to take seriously the ability to stay six feet apart from one another. We have to take seriously the ability to stay away from our crowds. Help our elderly. Go to the Grocery Stores for our elderly. If you show up in a Grocery Store and the Grocery Store is full of people, dont go at that time. We have to be really smart. We have to use our power. Our power that we feel like is inconveniencing us and hurting us is our power to destroy this terrible disease. Now, West Virginia is absolutely the greatest place on earth. The greatest people. I couldnt be more proud or more humbled to be in this position right now. I dont run from this position, i am absolutely proud to be your governor and to try to do everything in my power to keep you safe, to keep you healthy. You see, at the end of the day, the thing that is most fearful of all is just this, we stand back asleep at the switch a little bit. Then all of a sudden, this things grab hold. And then what happens is, we cover up our medical professionals. We cover up our hospitals with those that are really sick, and we cant treat them in a way we want to be able to treat them. On top of that, we even have the potential of contaminating or getting our doctors sick. You have to listen to me. Weve got to be in this boat together. Weve absolutely got to join hands and use our power. Our power is be apart, be smart, look after each other, and try in every way, shape, form, or fashion to move ourself forward. Like i said before, we will try and every way to make our businesses whole, and all of our employees whole, they will not be able be out dollars from paychecks and have a financial burden on top of them. Lastly, i just to say these words. By the grace of god shepherding us in every way, shape, form, or fashion, we will get through this. We will win and we will protect our people to the best of all our abilities in every way, shape, form, or fashion. Again, i thank you for joining me tonight. I will be with you through thick or thin until the very end in every way. We are going to win. We are going to beat this bad disease. Thank you, god bless you.
