A total 180 from the debate a few weeks ago. The candidates were still as contentious and combative but did allow each other to speak in part because the mics could be muted which led to a healthy debate on several topics starting with coronavirus.

The fact that we have come nowhere near that number is a testament to this president taking immediate action to shutting down travel from china. Trump is still promising to have a vaccine by the end of the y
