Reporter well, norah, the m claiminghas gone from claiming absolute authority to telling governors on a phone call today that youre going to call your own shots. Now, these new guidelines, these are just advice, but they basically say, before a state can think about reopening, it needs to be on the downslope of coronavirus cases. It needs to be able to test its vealthcare workers, and its hospitals cannot be in crisis mode. Several governors are extending their stayathome orders, but President Trump is pushing ahead with his plan to reopen the country. Were opening up our country. We have to do that. America wants to be open. Reporter in states that enter what the president s guidelines call phase one, the vulnerable still stay at home.
