the virus. man, he will stop at nothing to blame this pandemic on other people we're one press conference away from him calling it the obama virus. "the obama virus, or as it's also known the obama hussein virus. infectious diseases expert and coronavirus task force member dr. anthony fauci has reportedly been assigned a security detail after receiving threats. threats like stop contradicting me or else the governor of georgia said yesterday that he just learned in the last 24 hours that asymptomatic people can transmit the coronavirus. so he's probably three weeks out from learning what asymptomatic means. massachusetts received 1 million face masks today for health care workers that were delivered from china on the new england patriots' private plane. meanwhile, the jets' private plane was intercepted and returned for a touchdown that's matt goldich, if you're an angry jets fan watching this. congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez on tuesday criticized new york governor andrew cuomo's decision to suspend mortgage payments but not rent during the coronavirus and accused him of giving preferential treatment to the wealthy. ironically, she lives rent-free in a lot of wealthy people's heads. after suspending the basketball season due to the coronavirus, the nba is reportedly planning to launch a players-only nba 2k videogame tournament and will broadcast the games on espn. wait, that's on espn jesus, what's on espn 2? antiques road show florida governor ron desantis issued a stay-at-home order yesterday to stop the coronavirus. now? you're just doing that now what are you going to do next, put life preservers on the "titanic"? make a new year's resolution seriously, what took you so long your beaches are where's waldo incidentally, we found him he's at the hospital according to new reports, sales of more comfortable wireless bras are up 40% since the start of the coronavirus, while some people are opting to go completely braless damn, dude what is that all about at least throw on a sweatshirt when the pizza guy shows up. seriously, my man, what's going on under your shirt? "friends" episodes have less prominent nipples. the craft store chain hobby lobby is reportedly fighting to be classified as an essential store so it can be open in states with stay-at-home orders. oh, come on. you literally have the word "hobby" in your name hobbies are the definition of non-essential. unless your hobby is doing 1,000 piece puzzles or baking bread. that's pretty much all instagram has left at this point if those go away it's over a seafood restaurant on long island has named a dish after infectious disease expert and coronavirus task force member dr. anthony fauci, which features linguine in a white clam sauce they also have a dish named after trump where you order 30,000 fried shrimp and then a month later they bring you three fish sticks. meanwhile, staten island is honoring dr. fauci by naming all their sons anthony for the last 200 years. today was international children's book day, though some of them had to be updated because of the pandemic. and finally, thanks to a new changes in liquor laws, new york cities are now allowed to deliver cocktails to people's homes as long as they're sold with food. said new yorkers, "yeah, i'll take 20 margaritas and a french fry. we've got a great show for you tonight. seven years ago we started our program. there was only one person we'd have as a first guest. that was amy poehler she's back tonight and she'll be joining us right after a closer look. hello and welcome back to our makeshift studio in an attic crawlspace so far we've migrated from the hallway to the garage to the living room to the attic and you may be wondering what's that little door behind me is it where we keep our camping gear or is it a door to another dimension? and how about that tiny chair? is it for my kids or is that where the attic hobbit smokes his pipe and reminisces about the battle of the five armies? i'm sorry to say, i'll never tell now, we're all bracing for a very difficult few weeks or months. but there are things the federal government could be doing right now to help us get through this. instead the president has essentially abdicated his responsibility and left the states up to themselves. for more on this it's time for "a closer look." ♪ >> seth: a pandemic like this requires a centralized federal response you know how republicans always complain about big government? well, how sweet would a big government be right now? because i don't know about you, but this tiny government stuff sucks. it's like being on the top floor of a burning building but instead of a catch net, the firemen show up with a little workout trampoline feels like right now we've largely been left to fend for ourselves. for example, for weeks we were told that masks don't work and that we shouldn't wear them. now all of a sudden the cdc is considering recommending mask you might want answers about what you should be doing to protect yourself and others and why the government is changing its position instead the best advice the president could offer on tuesday was this >> you know, you can use a scarf. a scarf is -- everybody -- a lot of people have scarves and you can use a scarf. a scarf would be very good i would say do it. but use a scarf if you want. i mean, most people have scarves and scarves are very good. >> seth: oh, great so now the president is martha stewart "using a blanket, a bike helmet and some saran wrap you can make your own hazmat suit homemade pretty great." but it's true. most people do have scarves and no one has more scarves than lenny kravitz. so breathe easy, everyone. lenny kravitz is in the clear. i mean, obviously the man has been preparing for this moment his entire life. i mean, look at that not only can he use that scarf, he can share it with two other people while maintaining a six-foot difference. now, it's true, there is evidence that wearing a mask or some other kind of face covering, even something rudimentary, can prevent asymptomatic spread of the disease. you can wear a bandanna, you can wear a cloth just don't be a guy who wears a jason mask i mean, one, it's freaky and two, it literally has holes. jason, come on, man, that mask is not approved by the cdc haven't you killed enough people, jason? now, the president could have gone into detail about that or any other number of other important issues during his briefing on wednesday. but instead he chose to brag about this >> did you know i was number one on facebook? i mean, i just found out i'm number one on facebook i thought that was very nice >> seth: what the [ bleep ] are you talking about, man you're in the middle of a deadly pandemic and you're bragging about how popular you are on facebook first of all, of course you're popular on facebook. it's the preferred method of communication of drunk aunts and people who still own flip phones being number one on facebook is like, i don't know, having the number one album in belgium. i mean, good for you, i guess. but your album probably sucks. and by the way, that's not even true you only have 28 million followers on facebook. barack obama has 53 million. i wish someone would point that out to trump because it would annoy the hell out of him. he'd force the cdc to update its coronavirus guidelines one, stay home, two, wash your hands. three follow donald trump on facebook but stay six feet away from barack obama. "we've heard he's facebook friends with tom hanks so his page definitely, definitely has it now. the thing we're currently enduring and the months of hardship ahead, we're not inevitable hundreds of thousands of people dying, a national lockdown that has disrupted daily life, none of that had to happen. i mean, just look at countries that managed to successfully contain the crisis countries much closer to china, the source of the outbreak like taiwan. >> taiwan is just off the coast of mainland china. millions travel between taiwan and the chinese mainland johns hopkins university had predicted that taiwan would have the second most covid-19 cases in the world but today there are 80 countries and territories with more than taiwan's 329 cases >> taiwan has succeeded at containing covid-19 starting at arrival. the first step taiwan took was identifying possible cases lee told authorities she'd had a cough in the last two weeks. so security escorted her to secondary screening. she had her temperature taken like this woman, and she got a covid-19 test at the airport taiwan uploads these results into its national health care database after her bags were disinfected, her ride home was in a government provided taxi by herself. one phone app allows taiwan residents to find stores with masks in stock another app provides information on all of those who are covid-19 positive, where they've been and their case histories >> seth: holy [ bleep ]. give you a ride home, an app that tells you where t masks and you get six months of showtime free of charge. quarantine yourself and don't come out until you've watched every episode of "shameless. that's certainly better than what our government is doing compare that to when you arrive at an airport in the u.s the closest anyone comes to taking your temperature is when a tsa agent gives you a full cavity search because accidentally packed a bottle of shampoo that was larger than 3.4 ounces or if you don't want to look at taiwan, take iceland, another country that's using advanced strategies to track and isolate cases of coronavirus including detective work >> for the past few weeks detective guesster polmanson has been chasing down leads and pursuing suspects. he's on the hunt for covid-19, where he and dozens of other detectives are tracking every single case of coronavirus in the country. >> as quickly as we can we have to reach everyone that might have been in contact with someone who's positive and try to stop them before they get in contact with more people >> seth: they literally have detectives tracking down cases not only is than effective method for containing the disease, it's also a great premise for a netflix crime drama starring kenneth branagh as detective guesster polmanson. "hey, kenneth, so excited to be working with you have you worked on an icelandic accent?" "i think i'd just use my british accent." "yeah no, but it takes place in iceland, so everyone will have an icelandic accent. "no, i think everyone else should be british too. "yeah, but kenneth, won't that be weird?" "sorry, friend those are the kenny branagh rules. and that was an extended bit for people who have seen bbc's production of the swedish crime drama "wallander." hey, the attic shows are going to have some deep cuts, everybody. thems the rules. one of the biggest takeaways of iceland's approach is that by aggressively testing everyone they've been able to avoid having to lock down their entire country the way we've had to >> it's very important to test very aggressively. we put those who test positive in isolation and we do contact tracing very aggressively also. we put all contacts in quarantine and it's interesting that more than half of those who we are diagnosing now are actually in quarantine when they're diagnosed, which means our policy of quarantine is probably very effective in minimizing the epidemic >> this has allowed authorities here to delay the closure of bars and restauran some stores remain open. people still walk the streets and explore the great outdoors >> seth: they still get to go outside. and their outside is awesome they have lagoons and volcanoes. the closest thing we have to a lagoon here in the u.s. is disney's typhoon lagoon, and that thing is germ city. they should call it typhoid lagoon so in iceland they get to go outside. meanwhile, in new york to go outside you have to wrap your head in scarves and swerve into the street to keep a distance of six feet from people on the sidewalk at this point, you're better off just hitching a ride on the back of a garbage truck new yorkers aren't used to avoiding people. they're used to bumping into people that's why the line to "midnight cowboy was "hey i'm walking here," not, "hey, i'm trying to maintain a distance of at least six feet here. and then there's south korea, which had its first case on the exact same day that we had our first case they deployed massive nationwide testing to track and contain the spread of the disease. as fox news found out on wednesday when they invited a doctor on who was much more critical of the trump administration than they were probably expecting >> now, what we hear every night is that the tests, that there are millions of tests available. and yet we don't have that pinprick blood test you can get, you know, at your local doctor and know in 15 minutes but they're working on it. >> yeah, they're working on it they should have been working on it for months. so the fact is we knew about this from the w.h.o. when? december 31st, 2019. so last year we knew about this. we needed this months ago. you look at korea, korea - south korea and the u.s. had their first official confirmed case on the same date. january 19th let me say this. january 19th you look at what south korea did and what we did. their population is 1/6th of ours look at the cases they have. look at the mortality they have. it's a trifle compared to what we're dealing with right now because we've had a very weak response and they had a really strong response. >> seth: oh, man fox news viewers never hear that kind of real talk. you asked the wrong doctor that's like asking your weird uncle if santa's real. "not only is he not real, he's just a construct of consumerist designed to melt your brains before you learn to think for yourself anyway -- ho, ho, ho i got you some scratchers. also, i love how long he shakes his head while she's repeating trump's talking points they should put that guy on a box on the screen during all of trump's press briefings. >> this is like a flu. this is like a flu >> seth: so south korea's contained the outbreak with aggressive testing meanwhile, here in the u.s., our president said in a conference call with governors, he hadn't even heard about problems with testing. >> do you have any system in place that you feel can adequately identify cases and isolate them and contact trace them are there capabilities and resources there that's not something you can do given with what you have? ting to do conta from the cdc, that we wouldn't be able to do testing in montana. >> we don't have enough supplies to do the testing. >> tony, you can answer if you want, but i haven't heard about testing in weeks i haven't heard about testing being a problem. >> seth: if you haven't heard about testing being a problem, then you need to get tested to see if you have a problem. like a hearing test or a vision test i mean, maybe trump just can't read his briefings look at him. whenever he reads off a teleprompter he looks like he just finished 15 rounds with apollo creed and now that we've failed at testing, we have to massively ramp up hospital capacity, something the trump administration is also failing at for example, hospitals desperately need life-saving ventilators. and yet the president doesn't even know what they're called. >> we sent thousands of generators to new york the people in new york never distributed the generators >> seth: ventilators they're called ventilators having this guy in charge is like sending your grandpa to gamestop to pick up video games. "i need the new line of duty for the x station playbox. also now's not the time to send your grandpa to gamestop, you coward "just go, grandpa. you'll be safe." trump doesn't even know what ventilators are called "here are the emergency ventriloquists you guys asked for. "actually, we said ventilators." "i told you he said ventilators, you dummy. "i'm not the dummy you're the dummy." "why, i oughta!" now, trump should have used his powers under the defense production act to order companies to make ventilators weeks ago but he's only done it once during this pandemic even though his administration apparently used it repeatedly before this. "the new york times" reported that the defense production act has been invoked hundreds of thousands of times in the trump years. but with the pandemic, the president sees it as a break the glass last resort. hey, man it's time to break the glass it was time to break the glass weeks ago. of course, knowing trump, if he does have one of the break the glass in case of emergency boxes in the white house it's probably not a fire alarm but a -- you know, like an emergency chicken wing and they probably have hundreds of them on the wall because he breaks one every five minutes. "sir, if you want a chicken wing you can order it from the chef." "i didn't have time. it was an emergency. so now we have a situation where states are begging for life-saving ventilators and the trump team is in disarray. the pentagon says it still hasn't sent ventilators but they haven't been told where to send them and the "new york times" reported that thousands of ventilators in the stockpile don't work because the government let the contract to maintain the stockpile lapse last summer. so now governors are literally outbidding each other on the open market and dealing with shady middlemen and price gouging to buy ventilators wherever they can get them >> every state does its own purchasing so new york is purchasing. california's purchasing. illinois is purchasing we're all trying to buy the same commodity. literally the same exact item. so you have 50 states competing to buy the same item we all wind up bidding up each other and competing against each other where you now literally will have a company call you up and say, well, california just outbid you it's like being on ebay with 50 other states bidding on a ventilator >> it's the wild west. and these are crazy markets and you get a lot of bad actors. >> it's more like surge pricing on uber, only at the last minute the car drives away because somebody has outbid you. >> seth: that's right. governors are comparing buying life-saving ventilators for a pandemic to surge pricing. this is capitalism at its while trump waits for the market to decide, people are literally going to die and states are getting ripped off like they're frying to call an uber in the rain in midtown after a broadway show. and even worse, the ventilators come with a driver who won't stop trying to make conversation even though you're very clearly trying to take a nap and you'll never guess who's in charge of this [ bleep ] show. the guy slenderman has nightmares about jared kushner. that's right the real slim shady has been put in charge of the ventilator problem. and after new york governor andrew cuomo said publicly his state need 3arently kuschner pushed back. kushner told people that cuomo is being an alarmist "i have all this this data about icu capacity i'm doing my own projections and i've gotten a lot smarter about this new york doesn't need all the ventilators. oh, oh you're doing your own projections. did your parents just buy you a ti-84? you're not qualified to do anything, let alone tell new york how many ventilators they need. you're a nepotism case and you only got the white house job because you married into the family and because the security guards believed your fake i.d. "you are good to go, mr. cowboy. and hey, give that virus hell for us." i hope when the time for accountability comes, we can all remember that it didn't have to be like this other countries responded to this pandemic with competence and they avoided the worst now we're bracing for an unimaginable tragedy and as we speak, the president is leaving besieged states and hospitals to fend for themselves putting lives at risk. but hey, at least -- >> most people have scarves. >> seth: this has been "a closer look." ♪ we'll be right back with amy poehler. ♪ >> announcer: for more of seth's "closer looks" be sure to subscribe to "late night" on youtube. how fast does dove dry spray actually dry? let's see. it's dry. there's no dry time! makes us wonder... ...why we booked fifteen-second... ...ad slots! dries instantly and... ...keeps you protected for forty-eight-hours.
