Of our ask ask ask ask ask 4045 of our imports of penicillin. China producing 80 of the entire supply of american antibiotics. China is the Worlds Largest producer of active ingredients. The United States is dependent on drugs that are either sourced from china or include apis sourced from china. Outsourcing american jobs and our production to china. In effect, administration after administration of both parties has permitted big pharma and all sorts of Healthcare Companies to sell out not only American Workers and our National Security to improve profits. Those administrations allowed Drug Manufacturing Companies to render us dependent on a country thats in crisis. Despite chinas production of half the worlds sanitary masks. The coronavirus has led to a major shortage of masks in this country. China is importing masks as well, adding to the shortage here in the United States. Joining us, Peter Navarro. Assistant to the president , the president s trade czar in the white house. Peter, lets start with i know you are busy a wakeup call on steroids. Lou lets talk about that. What are we going to do about the absence any Production Capacity for pharmaceuticals in this country . I want to focus on that. Peter im going to ask you to respond to my question. Thats what im going to ask you to do. Go ahead. Lou you missed the question. You asked about the production facilities in the United States. Lou how are we going to respond to that. Vaccines are what well need. We have five companies here in the u. S. , a manhattanstyle project to get us the vaccine hopefully as early as next november. Get 50 million doses. It there require effort in research and development. In terms of the treatment, there is a drug that looks promising. The thing that we need absolutely to do is get that into clinical trials. We have been having trouble with the chinese cooperating on that. So we are going down a different avenue to get that done. If we get that done we can ramp the production up. Lou how soon can that vaccine be ready . The prospects are bleak that well avoid it over the course of the next year. The vaccine its a manhattanstyle project. November. Lou thats amazing if you can get that done, there will be a grateful nation. In order to make that happen, we have to have the fda voft, the epa involved. Lou i am going to interject now. Thats your problem, your job, this administrations job. Now lets go to treatment. How soon and how much can we count on . We have the drug made by gilliad. Its promising. We need to get it quickly through clinical trials. We have 3,500 doses on hand and another 100,000 we can produce at 5,000 a week. We can be as early as the end of this month to midmarch to star this production of the additional 5,000. We are moving at trump time. Lou peter, thanks so much and thanks for all you are doing. Dr. Marc siegel joins us after stay restless with the icon that does the same. The new rx. Crafted by lexus. Lease the 2020 rx 350 for 419 a month for 36 months. Experience amazing at your lexus dealer. Lou china has reported more deaths in Hubei Province along with 2,000 more confirmed case. Worldwide there are 1,500 deaths and 60,000 confirmed cases. Dr. Robert redfield issuing this warning for the United States. Quote, this virus is probably with us beyond this season, beyond this year. And i think eventually the virus will find a foothold and well get communitybased transmission. Translation. Pandemic. There have been 15 confirmed cases in the United States. Joining us, dr. Marc siegel. The outlook from the cdc is somewhat bleak and it doesnt seem to be supported by the obvious facts on transmission and the straight ahead of the disease within his country. I think the concern from coming out of cdc has to do with the fact that there are so many more cases in china than we were told originally. We kind of suspected that. Even the number you put up tonight of 66,000 is probably way under. Its probably over 100,000. People can get a virus in the United States and we wouldnt necessarily know. Lou what im sort of stunned by in all of this is the surprise that there are 60,000 cases in china, principally Hubei Province, wuhan, the epicenter. We were just told by Peter Navarro, the president s man on the case to fight this virus in vaccines and antivirals and treatment. He believes that he will have treatment and vaccines both the treatment beginning in the next month and perhaps vaccines by november. Thats a much better outlook than we heard good any other quarter. This is the man, and this is the president responsible for contending with this emergency. Did these declarations surprise you from Peter Navarro . They encouraged me. I know its been very successful in scene malls. Successful in animals. I talked to phone talked to y fauci about the vaccines as have you. I think its optimistic, but it will be a full court press. Lou despite our immense dependence on china or pharmaceuticals and treatment drugs and all sorts of equipment, it looks like the administration is making a heroic effort to turn all of that around after decades of and surpt outsourcing of jobs. It does look like its going to come here and spread to communities here. 7 of all antibiotics are made in china. We are in trouble in terms of antibiotics. There are many there in wuhan. 80 of prescription drugs are made in china. We are in huge trouble unless we turn this back towards the United States. Lou we are talking about 139 deaths coming out of wuhan. I think its well beyond that. 15 of the cases linked to this terrible pneumonia. 5 of the cases ends up in the i. C. U. This is a very serious infection and it definitely can be deadly. Lou be sure to vote in our poll tonight. Do you believe the Justice Department and the fbi are politically corrupt and may just be plain old crooked. Cast your vote loudobbs. Here is a story that rights itself. Michael avenatti, remember him . He went from creepy porn lawyer to convict in less than two years. He was found guilty of trying to extort millions of dollars from nike. He faces two more trials coming up including embezzling thousands of dollars from a paraplegic. This is just extraordinary. Its just sickening what this man has done. Recent phenomenons, phenom nap, make it feel like the end of days. These are locusts you are looking at. Nasa says a potentially hazardous asteroid will miss by a few million miles early tomorrow morning. In astronomical terms its a close miss. If it were to have hit the world, it would trigger mass extinction, some scientists say, and nuclear winter. Mass extinction of course would make nuke ca nuclear winter.

This headline targeting a president pushing religious freedom including forcing planned parenthood to withdraw from public funding and becoming the first president to attend the march for life. Joining us tonight, pastor Robert Jeffress, pastor of the First Baptist church of dallas and fox news contributor. I want to talk to you about attacking the president on his faith. This is i was going to say a new low. But its not really. Its just more low from the National Leftwing media. This reporter happened to talk to me and she was asking about the president s prayer life and bible reading. I said five years ago when i met mr. Trump for the first time, i said people are going to ask me about your faith. What would you like me to say to them . He said tell people my faith is very important to me and its very personal with me. Most christians dont care about his personal piety, what they care about is his profaith policies. Hes proper Ridge Liberty hes pro religious liberty be. Lou a new Pew Research PollShows Christians are not going to vote for a socialist. There is a new poll out that shows Bernie Sanders is the number one choice of democrats and of atheists. That tells you everything you need to know. He could probably win the democrat nomination without religious voters, but you cant win the general election with them. America is still primarily a christian nation. Bernie sanders doesnt have a prayer of a chance of becoming president. But hes the democrat nominee, thats a gift from heaven to donald trump.
