Decisions. U. S. Disease experts say the country has not seen a significant drop in coronavirus cases yet most states we know are moving ahead. As you can see here. Plans to relax stay at home restrictions and reopen businesses and public spaces. The number of deaths in the u. S. Continues to climb by the thousands each day. Johns hopkins reports more than 73,000 fatalities so far. One expert predicts it will soon top 100,000 deaths. Its really bad and sadly looking at the u. S. As a whole just speculating forward from the number of people wherein effect shuns have already been documented, there will be tragically at least 100,000 deaths from covid by the end of this month. Second, as bad as this has been, its just the beginning. Sobering words there. The u. S. Is 1 3 of all global cases. President donald trump is now comparing the pandemic to 9 11 and world war ii. This is worse than pearl harbor. This is worse than the world trade center. Theres never been an attack like this. And it should have never happened. Could have been stopped at the source. Could have been stopped in china. But the trend across the u. S. Is to begin scaling back mitigation. Its a move President Trump embraces claiming he has saved millions of lives. The nation has to accept there will be more deaths . Call these people warriors. We cant keep our country closed down for years and we have to do something. Hopefully that wont be the case, john, but that very well could be the case. We saved millions of lives by doing what we did. We have saved millions of lives. There are supposed to be 2. 2 Million Deaths and we are at a point where were far lower than that thanks to the great work of the task force and to the leadership of President Trump. The u. S. State of georgia has a preview for the rest of the country. It was one of the first and most aggressive in reopening. The number of infections where the cnn center is has climbed to more than 30,000 with well over 1300 deaths. And for a closer look at what has been happening around the u. S. , heres nick watt. Reporter the new york city subway closed overnight, fooiir time in 100 years. We have turned the corner and we are on the decline. You take new york out of the national numbers, the numbers for the rest of the nation are going up. What were doing here shows results. Reporter across the country as a whole the new case count is not falling, hovering somewhere over 20,000 every single day. I think that we need to understand, this may be the new normal. We may not be able to get transmission down much more. I hope we can. Reporter many places reopening anyway. Hot spots now growing in cities like dallas. Some more rural flareups, too, like those in nebraska and minnesota. Better testing might just play into all of this. I dont think anyone thinks there were less cases out there. Reporter a former cdc director said the new death toll will exceed 100,000. As bad as this has been is just the beginning. Reporter average passengers per plane is up to 23 from just 17 last week. All but these seven states are now taking steps to get back in business. On monday, restaurants could open in florida. Tuesday, cops in jacksonville had to break up a Tailgate Party at a taco stand. The risk of the coronavirus is a scam. Reporter one Company Working on creating therapeutics using blood from the recovered now says it might have something on the market by the end of the summer. We can get the best antibodies from recovered humans. We have an antibody cocktail. Who is this coronavirus infecting . Well, around 90 of positives in San Franciscos Mission district are people unable to work from home according to a new study. 95 of them latinx. Another new study finds that black americans are 13. 4 of the population, but counties with higher black populations are home to nearly 60 of all covid19 deaths. Were still seeing a disproportionate number of black chicago as people who are dying as a result of covid19. Reporter some good news for the 10 Million People of los angeles county, stuff will start reopening friday starting with some trails, golf courses, and some nonessential businesses. Were told florists and Car Dealerships among the first wave, but we are being warned that this process will be very slow and no beaches. Not yet. Nick watt, cnn, los angeles. Thanks, nick, for that update. Now we know that Clinical Trials are underway for a handful of potential vaccines. Despite the massive global effort, it could still take scientists many, many months to reach the goal of finding an effective treatment. One lead researcher says the time line even if this accelerated case is next year. The challenges are daunting. First a viable vaccine has to be identified. Then it has to be shown to be safe and effective. Finally, enough of it has to be produced to protect the global population. Dr. Sergei matthew is a cnn medical analyst and a primary care physician joining me here in atlanta. Good to see you here. I want to go back to the death toll. We are getting warnings it could be 100,000 americans by the end of the month, this is just the beginning. As a doctor, what are your thoughts when you see these numbers . Good morning, robin. When i see these numbers, i go to the basic Public Health thinking. We need to look at parameters to decide if its time to open up a state. The World Health Organization continually warns states that are opening up too early to look at parameters. Flip for instance, the white house parameter of a downward spiral of two weeks is not happening. Were getting 20,000 people to test positive. We need that percentage lower. In new york, they did the hard work, robyn. Governor cuomo has done an incredible job with the new york cities to stay home, observe all of these tight, tight regulations and sacrifices people have made. Now if you take out new york and you look at the graph that we have shown on cnn multiple times, the cases are going up. To me, and in my medical opinion, robyn, we are not meeting the basic parameters to open states back up again. But theyre being open and the president and many people believe that there needs to be a balance, you know, in terms of Economic Health and Public Health, that this just is being done. So it is going forward. We heard nick watt lay out whats happening in california. If this is just the beginning, we know one expert said the pandemic will last at least 36 months, what does this mean for medical workers and the Hospital System . It means that were in this for the long haul. Without a viable vaccine, we talk about vaccines all the time, robyn, the question number one is im not trying to be an alarmist, we need to make sure that we can develop a vaccine in the first place and even if we accelerate the development of a vaccine, which usually takes years and years, were trying to do this at a lightning speed, we still have to be able to produce the vaccinations for billions of people. So without a good vaccine really in place, aint virals, we are back to the basics. Yes, this is being compared to the 1918 spanish flu pandemic. Guess what worked then . Cities that closed early and stayed closed longer have the lowest mortality rates. I know were opening pg back up and since were opening back up, the big question i have is what price are we willing to pay . And unfortunately the cases will continue to go up and the mortality will continue to go up. We need to keep protecting our Health Care Workers. I know ive mentioned this before, but ppe short tangs are still there. Yeah. We need to make sure that we provide mental health. I dont ever think, robyn, that physicians, nurses and our Health Care Workers will ever be the same again due to this trauma that they experienced on a daily basis. Yeah. Its certainly life changing not just for the general population but for medical workers as you say. I want to ask you. Youre a primary care physician. Somebody comes in and says, listen, how do i protect my family . Folks are going out to restaurants, some people are playing golf. Car dealerships are opening. Hair dressers have been open for two weeks. If thats the case, if the general population is reopening at whatever stage, wherever you are in the states, how do you selfdistance . Are you seeing the next 36 months people are going to make that decision not to do any of that . Where do people draw the line in terms of their own personal choices here . Its tough advice when i have to sit down and talk to patients, number one, about cabin fever, robyn. People are going crazy staying inside a house. Remember, not everybody can stay at home. Just like our reporter said, a lot of essential workers still have to get on subways. Theyre exposing themselves every day. Theres so many that are dying. I say ultimately use your common sense. If you can wait to get that haircut, i would say wait. Playing golf, yeah, you have to make certain decisions. Can you stay six feet away . Can you play tennis and stay six feet away continuously . We have to decide of a new normal way of living. Ive heard some people throw out the term quarantining. People are trying to sort of build bubbles as they describe it in europe of people that they want to reestablish contact with. Theyre tough decisions to make. Ultimately my job and in my medical opinion, its all about saving lives. I feel like it is definitely still a gamble, robyn, when you make certain decisions to go out there and start mingling again. I know it is happening. Real quickly, robyn. I know what sweden is doing. Its a trustbased model. They are sheltering the elderly in place. Guess what, theyve paid a price. The number of deaths in sweden is significantly higher than their counterparts in finland and denmark. There is going to be a price to pay. I still think we need to establish some level that are concrete and solid. Appreciate you joining us. Thank you. Do join us also for our next global town hall on the coronavirus. Hosted by Anderson Cooper and sanjay gupta. Joining us are spike lee, Laurie Garrett and former u. S. Vice president al gore. A top u. K. Person says there is no decision what will be lifted next week. Theyll have to wait until the Prime Ministers announcement on sunday for the details. U. K. Media has reported several proposals. Isa suares is joining us. What more can you tell us . Reporter good morning, robyn. Thats right. Prime minister Boris Johnson is expected to give a televised speech to the nation on sunday where hes expected to announce some sort of easing of lockdown restrictio restrictions. There are some reports we could be allowed out for longer periods of time will be encouraged to do so. These are just reports, robyn. If you look at some of the tabloids this morning in the u. K. , youll get a sense that were going to see an end to the lockdown altogether. One going with magic monday, the other first steps towards freedom. Its a delicate balancing act. Prime minister Boris Johnson said hes looking at the data before making any decisions. Take a listen. Well be working with the opposition, with unions, with business to make sure that we get the unlockdown plan. What he says would make sense. It would be an Economic Disaster if we were to pursue this in such a way as to trigger a second spike. Reporter of course this is something that Prime Minister Boris Johnson said time and time again, trying to make sure that we avoid a second spike. Of course what were hearing, were not going to see a sudden unlock, robyn, of these measures. Perhaps these will be baby steps considering, of course, that weve seen the number of deaths in the u. K. Top 30,000. Thats more than any other country in europe in the last 24 hours more than 6,000 people have died, robyn. Thanks for the update. Youre watching cnn newsroom. Still to come, President Trump is playing the blame game over americas response to the coronavirus pandemic. Well hear who he says failed to prepare and their blunt response. Our members understand social distancing. Being prepared and overcoming challenges. Usaa has been standing with them for nearly a hundred years. And well be here to serve you for a hundred more.

It relieves stress off of me to let me know im doing something good for the community, not just papa johns. Im doing something good for the community, tell me, what did verizon build their network for . People. And when peoples every day is being challenged. Thats when a Network Shows what its made of. Verizon customers are making an average of over 600 million calls and sending nearly 8 billion texts a day, every day. Businesses are using verizons added capacity to keep them connected with customers. And when people are depending on you for those connections. What do you do . Whatever it takes. Youre having one more bite no one more bite kraft. For the win win. Killer attitude. Good moves. Or hydration. Neutrogena® hydro boost. The number 1 hyaluronic acid moisturizer instantly delivers 2 times the hydration. And keeps hydrating all day long. Running dry of supple, bouncy skin . Never hydro boost. Pair with hydro boost wipes to cleanse and hydrate. Neutrogena® testing, testing and more testing. That is the refrain from u. S. Health officials on how to safely reopen the states. Thats also one of the key criteria mentioned on the white house website on opening america. And it was just weeks ago that the president said that anybody who needs a test can get a test. Heres what the White House Press secretary has to say now. Yeah, lets dismiss a myth about tests right now. If we tested every Single Person right now wed have to retest them an hour later, an hour later so at any moment you could contract the virus. The motion that everyone has to test is nonsense si sie sicicno. The white house is trying to deflect the blame on to president obama even though they had a plan with how to deal with an outbreak. Take a listen. What we inherited from the Previous Administration was totally broken, which somebody should eventually say not only were the cupboards bare, should i say, but we inherited broken testing. The last administration left us nothing. The last administration left us nothing. We didnt have ventilators. We didnt have medical equipment. We didnt have testing. The tests were broken. Now heres a former Obama Administration official pushing back. Take a listen. We had understood clearly, as frankly did the Bush Administration before us, that a pandemic was inevitable. President obama gave a speech in 2014 as we were dealing with the ebola epidemic precisely because of this. I established an office at the National Security council in the white house for precisely this sort of thing called the office of Global Health security and biodefense. Its sole purpose was to prepare for this kind of event. We also left them a pandemic for dummies playbook, as i like to call it, 69 questions to ask, things to check, do we have the supplies, do we have the surge capacity, do we have the testing. All of the things that are standard in this kind of scenario. We had experts that we had posted to china to be inside our embassy to work to be Early Warning systems. The Trump Administration removed those people. So they dismantled the office we established in the white house, they moved people out of china, they discarded the playbook. They were not focused on the reality that a pandemic was not just going to happen sometime but could happen any time. Susan rice also said the Trump Administrations focus on the u. S. China trade deal prevented him from using the months of january and february to prepare for the pandemic. The president is not just blaming the Obama Administration, hes continuing. The u. S. Secretary of state mike pompeo is doing the same despite initially saying he couldnt be certain from the origin of the virus. Pompeo doubled down that the virus came from a chinese lab. We dont have certainty and there is significant evidence that it came from a lab. Both statements are true. We dont have certainty whether it came from a lab or someplace else. Ive seen evidence that this likely came from the Wuhan Institute of virology. Happy to see other evidence that disproves that. We should get to the bottom of it. Thats why weve been asking for months to give westerners access to this information. China is fighting back. Lets go straight to beijing. Steven . Reporter robyn, the Chinese Government has directly challenged mike pompeo after calling the u. S. Secretary of state an evil liar who keeps contradicting himself. This Strong Language and push back from beijing is part of their strategy now. Theyre trying to really sew doubt and division among governments and peoples from around the world including among u. S. Allies as u. S. Officials see these assertions from mr. Pompeo and china. The chinese are trying to discredit, isolating the americans on the global stage. Here is what a Chinese Government spokeswoman said. Translator we want to urge the u. S. Side to stop spreading false information, stop misleading the international community. Take a look at the domestic problems and figure out how to control the pandemic as soon as possible rather than continuing to play the blame game. Reporter the blame game between the two governments is not only ongoing but also intensifying, really turning into a titfortat mudslinging game on a daily basis as the beijing government is determined not to be blamed for causing this. Thank you. Lets go to germany now. Chancellor Angela Merkel has laid out her countrys plan for a gradual reopening. After weeks, shops will be allowed to open their doors again with hygiene measures in place. There are limits and germans cannot meet with people outside of their household. Mrs. Merkel said germanys Football League can begin playing again in the second half of may though she did not give details about whether spectators would be allowed. Officials will remain vigilant. Reporter we have very, very good developments regarding the new infection rate figures. These have made it possible to take further steps. We have to be careful that we dont lose control of the situation and thats why i have a good feeling about the mechanism. Even the white house is calling the numbers very, very chilling. Coming up, were expecting to learn a whole lot more about them in the next few hours. Details ahead. Around here, nobody ever does it. I didnt do it. So when i heard they added ultra oxi to the cleaning power of tide, it was just what we needed. Dad . I didnt do it. 1 stain and odor fighter, 1 trusted. Its got to be tide.

Sporadic for you but not sporadic for a lot of other people. Oh, no, i agree, mr. President. Because ive heard the opposite. I have heard they are loaded up with gowns now. That Testy Exchange came as President Trump hosted a group of nurses inside the oval office. Theres no question that Health Workers are among the most vulnerable in this fight of covid19. Theyre dealing with a lot of challenges including as we know lack of supplies. Reporter as governors, doctors and nurses desperately pleaded for supplies from the federal stockpile to protect against the coronavirus. Were running low on masks. Reporter they dont have the proper equipment they go into the rooms with fear. We need the resources now. Reporter suddenly a little known division was front and center. There wasnt nearly enough in store to arm the entire nation to fight the coronavirus pandemic. Many states were totally unprepared for this. Were not an ordering clerk. Reporter trump was slow to get the production. Were all competing against one another. It shouldnt be states having a wild west fight over this. Reporter when they turned to the stockpile for relief, it was under stock. Federal stewards in disarray. Here in illinois weve received 10 of what we needed so theyve turned it back to the states. Expired supplies. Hhs says they should inspect it once they arrive and acknowledge they received less than they hoped for but each state received some. Jarrod touch ner came in. The notion of the federal stockpile was supposed to be our stockpile, not supposed to be state stockpile. Reporter the day after kush ner made this, they said it steps in for a severe emergency to a shorter statement that says supplies can be used as a shortterm stopgap buffer. There was no sense of urgency. The picture was made more complicated when a whistleblower said the stockpile system had been corrupted by outside lobbyists. Dr. Rick bright was ousted from a position in hhs. We didnt increase mask production. There was no effort to do that. What should have happened as soon as this pandemic hit reporter created in 1999, the stockpile includes about 8 billion worth of supplies for the u. S. To deploy in national disasters, terrorist pan dem mix. When i took this over, this was an empty box. Reporter trump blames his predecessor. Congress wouldnt include funding relief. 16 billion was passed for rebuilding the stockpile. Were building up the stockpile again. Reporter experts say it will take more changes for the u. S. To be prepared for the nifks next pandemic. Work by banksy is inspiring hospital workers.

Banksy left the artwork at the hospital in south england be with a note saying, thanks for all youre doing. I hope this brightens the place up a bit, even if its only in black and white. Good to hear from him. Right now we are waiting on two rounds of job numbers in the u. Sm u. S. In just a few hours well get weekly jobless claims and lets go to Christine Romans joining me from new york with all of this. Good to see you. Reporter hi. The u. S. Again bracing for pretty ugly numbers. These numbers will show us april was hell. Baef theyre going to blow the charts out of the water really. The reason here is because weve shut down the american economy. Weve done this on purpose. Congress and the fed have been p pumping money into peoples pockets to keep them whole. We dont know what will come back and what will be the slowest to return. People say the travel and leisure is going to be hit the most. Uber had to layoff 14 of the employees. Sharing is the key here. Whether its a call. Are you going to get into a car with somebody you dont know . Are you more likely to get a taxi or more likely to get into an uber or lift . All parts looking at how are they going to reconfigure this. We know stores and malls are reopening. What does it look like if you want to go to gap to try on jeans. Reporter thats so interesting. Do you want to pick up something someone else tried on. No. When you go to a store, there will be social distancing. There will be if you touch an item, it will be taken away, right . Then will be left for i guess 24 hours before its putback. Its going tore a very different situation. You will see the signs of cleaning, hand sanitizer, social distancing and how people are working there to make you feel safe. I think you will not see clothing stores. Can you look and touch but you will have to take it home with you if you want to try it on in some cases and returns of course will be guaranteed when they come back to the store. Another aspect, meat shortage. Were hearing from wendys this could last another month . Wendys, they have switched the strategy to fresh beef pattys. That has meant that the supply chain is more strained. The meat shortages, some of this has to do with consumer behavior. People have run out and perceived theres going to be a shortage in the meat industry. Grocery stores have been telling people, look, you have to limit how much meat youre buying. It will be some day a case study in Business School about consumer psychology in terms of toilet paper first and now meat in this part of the pandemic. Still, always games on phones. Nintendo we know has done pretty well. Yeah. The switch. Nintendo switch is a little device. They have sold millions of these things. Hugely popular.

The gbi could not begin an investigation. Reactions have been pouring in, both in outrage and in support of arbreys family. Lebron james said were literally hunted every day, every time we step foot outside the comfort of our homes. This case will go to a grand jury in south georgia. It isnt enough for those who knew him best. Martin savidge reporting. Martin. Reporter ask anyone who knew him, amon arbrey loved to run. Unless it was pouring down rain, amaud was going to be running. Reporter his run became a deadly chase. 1 p. M. February 23rd according to Police Reports arbrey is seen in the sin till la shores neighborhoods. He was Walking Around a home under construction and then he spotted running in the road. His presence 911. Breaking in right now. We saw one under construction and hes running right now. There he goes right now. What is he doing . Running down the street. Reporter according to the police report, Gregory Mcmichael is standing in his yard when he sees what he thinks is the suspect of the neighborhood breakins, as he puts it, hauling ass down the street. Mcmichael a retired glen county Police Officer grab a handgun and shotgun. According to police documents, jump into a truck and begin following arbrey. The report says they tried to cute him off. Eventually they managed to get ahead of arbrey. Travis mick michael on the street. The worlds of the runner and the chasers collided violently. An unidentified person captured this. Three shots and arbrey died in the street. More than two months later no ones been charged. A fact that has left arbreys father outraged. I want to see them go to jail. They need the harshest crime they can get. Reporter critics say there was no arrest because the man with the shotgun was a former Police Officer. In fact, because of the fathers Law Enforcement connections, two district attorneys recused themselves. Before he quit, Travis Mick Michael said he was acting in selfdefense when he was killed by arbrey. They say this was perfectly legal under the georgias citizens arrest law. Outraged, they felt it was being overlooked in the pandemic that kept protestors at home. There are a lot of people who are discouraged and believe this is going to be one of those cases that has happened in other parts of the nation where a life was lost and nothing was done. The community has united. I mean, as youve seen out here, theres members of all races. Reporter wanda cooper, arbreys mother said she has not seen the video and know never will. I saw my son come in the world and seeing him leave the world is not something that i want to see ever. Reporter we made a number of attempts to speak to the mcmichael family without success. Friday would have been amau amaud arbreys birthday. There would have been a celebration. Afterwards he would have stepped out of the door and run. Reporter there is an effort for a virtual demonstration. Theyre asking for athletes, runners, sports enenshu cease ast to go and take a photo and video to put i run for maud, short for amaud.

Dustin riggins recruited his family to help paint the 10,000 square foot flag on a field he owns in indiana. It took 30 gallons of paint. Riggins wanted to create something people could see from air. Clearly Mission Accomplished there. Great stuff. Meanwhile, the pandemic is creating new challenges for u. S. Food supplies. Some Wendys Restaurants have run out of beef as we spoke about with Christine Romans a little bit earlier. The country is also seeing a shortage of pork. Tyson foods says its reopening on thursday two weeks after a massive covid19 outbreak among staff forced the plant to shut down. Gary visited farmers in minnesota facing tough decisions. Heres gary. Reporter alex haym is a sixth generation farmer. Theyre proud hog farmers. I never imagined having to do this. Reporter what they are going to do as a result of the closing of american pork plants. There is no place for these pigs to go. Each of these hogs should have been out of here two to three weeks ago, sent to market. Looks like they never will. The decision has been made to humanely euthanize most if not all of them. That will happen as early as this week. Reporter all of this minnesotas pigs go to one market but the smithfield facility in sioux falls was shut down in the middle of april with more than 800 employee covid cases linked to it. With so many plants closed and such a backlog of pigs, some weigh up to 3 40e pounds, the haym family is desperate. Before covid19 they would typically send off 700 hogs every week. They have 3500 ready to go and nowhere to send them. And these are the familys baby pigs. About 3,000 of them in an over crowded nursery barn that usually has around 2400. The fully grown pigs being euthanized by gunshot will leave room for the little ones as they get bigger, but the babies could face the same fate in a few months.
