And good evening. The coronavirus outbreak in this country is bigger now than it its ever been. I just want to repeat that. The outbreak in this country is bigger now than ever before. Nearly twice as big as ever before. The president likes to be number one. He can certainly take responsibility for this numberone ranking.
