Theyve got a hotline that seniors can call to help them since were all in isolation. We know for seniors it can be really difficult. This group of High School Students, they went all for positive messages or simply a joke for seniors stuck in isolation during this pandemic. My favorite part is the number is 1877joy4all. Thats joy the number 4 all all. Charges apply. Just kidding. No, this is definitely a big deal. A lot of people who are used to their families coming by are not able to get visitors at the nursing home, so even though its a stranger, just hearing a voice on the other end of that phone and being able to talk about some things, normal human interaction. Thats a good one to kick off goodnewstues. We know that there are people on the front lines when it comes to delivering making deliveries to our homes, especially when it comes to fed ex, u. P. S. A fed ex driver caught on camera doing something incredible there, sanitizing the package for a young girl who has autoimmune disease. He knows the family. A lot of people, they know the families on the routes that they go through every day. So he knows this girl has a compromised immune system. He wipes down the package. Its also the fact that obviously shes more at risk for contracting the virus and its just taking that extra step and doing something nice for someone who possibly has more fear and anxiety during this time. This happened in boca raton in florida. 11yearold girl emma who has type 1 diabetes. The mom, the homeowner, put that out saying, i couldnt believe somebody, a total stranger, took the time to make sure we were safe. Love it.

Two doctors who are right there fighting, helping so many people during covid19 crisis from duke, they got married, this morning o this morning on world news now, Governors Team up to discuss reopening their states. Governors on the east and west coasts announce coordinated efforts but President Trump now insists he can overrule them. In his latest briefing he said he has total authority as he aggressively defended his response to the pandemic. Also this morning, concerns of a second wave of the virus in china. And there wont be a speedy reopening in several European Countries where lockdowns now extend into the middle of next month. Two corners of the country devastated by storms. Parts of the south hit by more than 50 tornados in just 24 heor powerful windsring down trees roofff this huge building. And there are bright spots, including the 93yearold who ran out of coors light. Guess what . Shes got plenty now. Its tuesday, april 14th. With her coors light. Not when the mountains are blue on the can, she knows what shes doing. She got them stacked up as well. We will talk about grandma and her coors light in just a moment. We begin with the latest developments on the pandemic with the number of global cases now topping 2 million. President trump is eager to get the economy going again. Hes now claiming he has total authority to reopen the country, but governors in the northeast and on the west coast are forming regional groups. Theyre coordinating efforts on how and when to ease restrictions in their states. One governor saying since they had the responsibility of closing the state down, they probably have the responsibility of opening it up. As the death toll in new york surpassed 10,000, Governor Andrew Cuomo said the worst is over if we continue to be smart. This morning, President Trump lashing out at his critics. I dont mind being criticized. But not when theyre wrong. Reporter during a combative briefing on the coronavirus, the president defended his response to the pandemic and played a campaignstyle video during the news conference. The press has not treated these incredible people, who have done such a great job, they havent treated them fairly. Reporter President Trump says the video was produced by white house staff, which immediately got the attention of the former head of the office of government ethics who tweeted, so our tax dollars and the president ial mansion we own are now being used to broadcast campaign ads . Dr. Anthony fauci clarified an answer he gave during a sunday interview when he said more lives could have been saved if the u. S. Had made earlier efforts to contain the virus. The nature of the hypothetical question was, if, in fact, we had mitigated and the answer to my question was, as i always do, and im doing right now, perfectly honestly say, yes. I mean, obviously. The first and only time that dr. Birx and i went in and formally made a recommendation to the president. Reporter fauci making that clarification monday after President Trump retweeted a post sunday night that called for fauci to be fired. President trump also highlighted his decision to restrict travel from china in late january. He was then pressed on what the administration did in february to prepare, a month during which the president is accused of downplaying the threat. What do you do when you have no case in the whole United States you had cases. Excuse me. You reported it. Zero cases, zero deaths, on january 17th. January. But the entire month ouad a complete gap what did your administration do in february, at the time that your travel ban a lot. A lot. What . In fact, well give you a list, what we did, in fact, part of it up there. We did a lot. Look, look. You know youre a fake. You know that . Your whole network, the way you cover it. Reporter as for reopening the economy, the president declared he has total authority when it comes to how and when to ease up on social distancing. When somebodys the president of the United States, the authority is total. And thats the way its got to be. Reporter according to constitutional experts, trump is wrong. The president can issue guidelines but the authority to close businesses during a Public Health crisis is reserved to the states, not the federal government. You said when someone is president of the United States, their authority is total. That is not true. Who told okay, you know what were going to do . Were going to write up papers on this, its not going to be necessary, because the governors need us one way or the other. Has any governor agreed that you have the authority to decide when their state i havent asked anybody because you know why, because i dont have to. Go ahead. Who told you the president has the total authority . Enough. In california Governor Newsom said decisions on reopening would be guided by facts, evidence, and science. He is expected to unveil his plan later today. This morning, fears of a second coronavirus wave in china. Hundreds of new infections reported 1,300 miles north of wuhan. A russian border town is now on lockdown amid the largest rise in cases in six weeks. In europe, lockdown extensions are in place in france and italy. But in spain, officials are looking to revive the slumping p back to their jobs. A virginia pastor who defied social distancing guidelines at his church has died of the coronavirus. Bishop gerald glenn of richmond declared god was bigger than this dreaded virus. His daughter is now urging people to stay home. Vice president pence says a new virus Antibody Test could be approved by the fda in just a matter of days and starting today thousands of workers and patients from a Hospital System in michigan will begin a blood testing study. That studys goal is to determine if virus antibodies offer any protection to those who have had the disease. Abcs matt gutman has more. Reporter the World Health Organization acknowledging it does not know if those who have had coronavirus would have immunity or if theres a chance you could get it more than once. A top official says we simply do not know. So right now the information is mixed. We need much more information from recovered patients. Reporter and in south korea, a small study showing people testing positive twice. Authorities say they dont know if its a reactivation of the virus in their body, or a new infection. But here in the u. S. , authorities remain hopeful that on youve had it or at least been exposed to it, you might have some immunity. Here in california, there are now multiple trials under way to test for those antibodies, telltale proteins in the blood that show exposure to the virus. We were there as 50 firefighters, among the first to be tested. But the cdc remains concerned about the accuracy and reliability of Antibody Tests. And one clinician administering these new tests says its possible immunity could weaken over time. You could be susceptible to a second infection. Reporter meantime, the race is on to help the most severe patients still fighting for survival. We have reported here the fda has fast tracked an experimental treatment that allows patients who have had the virus and recovered to donate their blood. Its called convalescent plasma. Jason garcia is a patient in san diego who recovered from the virus. Hopeful an ageold technique, once used after the flu of 1918, will work again. Its such a small thing to have such a huge impact. Reporter hes donated to three patients, one of whom doctors say has shown remarkable improvement. Its important to remind viewers this is an experimental treatment. It has worked with other viruses in the past, but not with covid. And while kevin is appearing to be on the road to recovery, its still a long road ahead for him. Matt gutman, abc news, los angeles.

The two latest superstars giving back to medical professionals. The supersized surprise from big papi and John Krasinski. First, where does the u. S. Stand on testing for covid19 . Why one doctor is telling us the nation has quote supply chain disaster. Doctor is telling us the nation has quote supply chain disaster. Tonight, Oprah Winfrey takes on the racial impact of the coronaVirus Outbreak. Shes hosting oprah talks covid19 the deadly impact on black america. Its happening on apple tv plus. Paneste dil ones of ed frontline workers. Nuerf me authorities are saying that its testing that will drive when and how america can restart its economy. But some are saying that we have a long way to go still, so i spoke earlier with dr. Patel. Dr. Patel, as always, thank you so much for joining us this morning. Im going to jump right into it. You and other medical experts have stressed the need for more testing as a prerequisite to reopen the country. Where do you currently stand right now with widespread testing and what needs to happen to speed up that process . First of all, youre absolutely right in saying a lot of us in the medical and Scientific Community have been calling for more testing before we can even think about reopening the economy. Where we stand right now, i dont have a nice way to put this, is like a supply chain disaster. Because even though people are celebrating that we have 2 million, weve done 2 million to 2. 5 million tests, per capita, with the amount of tests per Million People, were behind some other countries, including italy, south korea, germany. We need to be doing a lot more. And speaking of those Antibody Tests, could this be a siler bullet, lets say. We hope its a Silver Bullet in terms of telling us whos been exposed and who might be immune to this coronavirus. But theres a lot of shades of gray. For example, the fdas only approved one Antibody Test right now. We dont have a lot of data from it. Theres 70 to 90 other companies who are currently selling their products right now, but they havent been fda approved. Vent necessarily been t verified, so we dont really know how accurate they are. As far as antibodies telling us were immune, basic immunology tells us if you get an infection, youll get an antibody response that should protect you against this coronavirus in the same way it does any other virus. But we dont know whos immune, how long it takes to get immune, or even how long that immunity lasts. Previous studies looking at the sars virus suggest it could last for a couple of years. But right now its all speculation. We just need to get more of those tests out there and start to see what they show. And theres been new research in the last 24 hours raising the possibility of people getting infected twice or at least having the virus reactivate in their bodies. What are you hearing about that risk . One big thing im hearing regarding that is all the comments coming out of south korea right now. And theres a lot of headlines saying, this large amount of south korean patients have had a reactivated viral infection, meaning they were negative, now theyve tested positive. Now again, the w. H. O. Openly said they want to investigate those because you could actually get this scenario from a variety of different reasons. Two big ones is the first test could be false negatives, meaning they werent actually accurate. Thats something thats been seen previously. The w. H. O. Actually has documented cases of false negatives. But also, and this is important, its possible people can improve clinically, meaning theyre no longer feeling sick symptoms, and they could still have a little bit of the viral genetic material in their body, and they could still test positive. And so one thing that people arent seeing right now is the virus is somehow dormant and can reactivate again. That happens in a few viruses, one big example is chicken pox, where that can happen. As of right now, scientists dont believe that happens with coronavirus. So well know more as the investigation goes out. And more data is released from those patients who purportedly were negative, then tested positive. A lot of great information from dr. Patel, our thanks to him. I asked him about a study in brazil about hydroxychloroquine, the president touting that antimalaria drug as a potential treatment. This study reporting patients who received a higher dose of the drug suffered heart complications, sometimes fatal heart complications. He said this stresses two thing, the shows there are serious side effects when it comes to taking that drug, also that it needs to be taken under strict supervision. A lot of great information from dr. Patel. People need to have all the information when it comes to potential treatments and those side effects. And obviously we say every day, were still learning so much about the coronavirus every day. As the doctors and the medical professionals and researchers learn about it, we learn about it, and were giving that information to you. When we come back, the mix. When we come back, the mix. And looking to buy Life Insurance on a fixed budget, remember the three ps. What are the three ps . The three ps of Life Insurance on a fixed budget are price, price, and price.
