Because that really is, by far, the hottest spot. Theyve got a number of very tough weeks ahead of them.

Theres also 350 billion of loan guarantees for Small Businesses that effectively turn into grants, so long as those Small Businesses keep their employees on the payroll and dont lay them off. As you heard from Mitch Mcconnell earlier, it took a little bit of time to get everybody on the same page, but one thing Mitch Mcconnell really drove home tonight was the amount of bipartisanship that went into this. He said over and over, that the senate went from deliberating impeachment less than three months ago to coming together with 98, i believe, yea votes on what he called a rescue bill. Take a listen. I think if i were writing your headline, i would say the senate has pivoted from one of the most contentious, partisan periods in the nations history to passing this rescue package 1000. All in one quarter. And w where things go from he is over to the house of representatives. Nancy pelosi also had a huge part in crafting this legislation. Originally, republicans in the senate came up with what they want to come in nancy pelosi in the house had her idea, and then she said this. Well, when we see the bill has passed and the senate, our distinguished majority leader mr. Hoyer will give 24 hours notice, at least 24 hours noti notice, to our members that the bill will be on the floor in that we can show them, actually, what the bill is.

So that 24 hours started at around 11 30 eastern, trace. We are told the house is going to vote on it at 9 00 a. M. Or so on friday morning. Noteworthy, one of the largest spending bills ever, put forth in the United States house of representatives. We understand it is very likely to pass played by what is called a voice vote, they said they dot want to force all 430 members of the house to get back on airplanes and fly here to d. C. For a vote. Trace we will see how the markets respond fearfully when feeLeland Vittert, thank you. There are now more than 30,000 confirmed cases in new york state. Nearly 300 people have died. Right now, 3800 people are hospitalized, 900 of them in intensive care. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo cautioning, the money from the relief bill is far from enough. Okay, here is the package. It gives us 3. 8 billion. The whole is as high as 15 billion. How do you plug a 15 billion hole with 3. 8 billion . You dont. Fox news correspondent jeff paul live for us. Jeff . Trace, the situation in new york only seems to get worse by the day with some doctors describing what is happening as apocalyptic. Hospitals right now battling to try to keep up with the high number of patients sickened by the coronavirus. Some now setting up makeshift morgues outside of medical facilities due to capacity issues. In fact, at one hospital in a 24hour period, 13 people died from the coronavirus. Officials have been working to track down even more beds and lifesaving medical equipment like ventilators, which are in short supply. The fear by physicians it has a number of sick could spike in a few weeks time, overrunning area hospitals like what was seen in italy and spain. Only figures from one day. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo was slightly optimistic about the latest numbers, showing infections werent growing as fast. The production was that hospitalizations were doubling every two days, okay . On monday, the numbers suggest that the hospitalization was doubling every 3. 4 days. On tuesday, the projection suggested the hospitalizations were doubling every 4. 7 days. Now, that is almost too good to be true. More Police Officers are also getting sick in new york, as they worked to patrol the streets, hoping to enforce social distancing. For the most part, streets are empty, nonessential businesses are closed, and people for the most part are staying away from each other. New yorkers are trying to rely on their mental strength right now, hoping this will all over be soon. Speak with not that im worried im actually doing something about it. Im urging my family members to stay home, my mom is in her 80s and is under strict instructions. Please stay home, dont go out. Im not scared, i just wanted to be over. Its springtime. I want to get out. Just live my life. New york mayor bill de blasio also raising concerns regarding hospital space and the need for medical equipment. Even called on the military to get involved to make sure supplies are getting distributed all over the country and on a rapid basis. Trace . Trace jeff paul life for us in the newsroom. Jeff, thank you. Its called hydroxychloroquine. The question is, could it be the drug to answer covid19 . It is commonly used trick to treat lupus, arthritis, and malaria, but a 2005 cdc study shows that it could block a virus from penetrating a cell if administered before exposure. Even President Trump has been pointing to it as a potential lifesaver. We dont know, but there is a real chance it could have a tremendous impact. It would be a gift from god if that worked. That would be a big game changer. The drug has an excellent safety profile, as well, but limited clinical outcomes. Is it worth the risk or should we wait for something with a bit more proof . A closer look at the drug, dr. Jeff colyer, chair of the National Advisory committee on oral health and human services, and also was also the 47th governor of kansas. Dr. Colyer, great to see you. Governor, great to see you. You are a surgeon by trade, and i know you believe that chloroquine, maybe with a combination of a z pack is safe right now and should be used immediately, is that a Fair Assessment . Yes. This is a drug that has been commonly used since 1955, has a very excellent safety record. As a policymaker, you have to go to war with the tools that you have, with the army that you have, and we are also going to need to be building more planes, more tanks while we are at eight. But we have some initial data that is out there from france, from china, and even some anecdotal reports here in the United States. All of this is anecdotal, but i think if we use this in a controlled manner, you are only treating people for five days with it, and weve seen some good results, and we have some reports around the country that show some great results. Trace in fact, you wrote an oped in the wall street journal, and in that oped you cited a french study, and i want to put it on the screen if i can. You said, quoting here, researchers in france treated a small number of patients with hydroxychloroquine and z pack, and 100 of them were cured by day six of treatment, compare that to 57. 1 of patients treated with hydroxychloroquine alone and 12. 5 of patients who received neither of the drugs. But then you have people like the nevada governor, steve sissel asked, saying things like this. Let me play it and get your response. There is no conclusive evidence at this time among covid19 experts or Health Advisory team that it provides treatment for covid19 patients. Its preventing the hoarding of the drugs so those who actually need them can have access to them. Trace clearly two camps on this, so what would you say to those who oppose you . You know, i understand where they come from, as a physician, i really want to have safety and efficacy. This is a drug that is safe, and it has some efficacy studies for us. He is making a decision for his state, and other states are going to make their own. In part, his decision with some of the hoarding that was going on. None of us want to see that happening. What we would like to see is that there is an adequate supply of z packs end of this drug, plaque would no. It is available. What we are seeing as a potential use for both patients as their early on diagnosis and those who have heavy exposure, such as an emt, is the only tool we have at this time. It has some solid science, not as much as any of us would like, but many of us are now we now have a number of studies going on across the u. S. Trace you mentioned the studies across the u. S. In one of them is the university of minnesota studying chloroquine on 1500 people. They are telling us the results could be a few weeks away, several weeks away. Is it worth placating all sides by waiting for the results of this study before administering chloroquine, or do we not have the time . Thats the issue, is we dont have the time. This is medication that has a very strong safety profile. Every vietnam veteran was taking this when they were in vietnam. Its been around a long time, and we are only using this for five days, specifically with patients as they are diagnosed. Trace yeah, and i want to make that very clear. Your state is already using this, and you have seen, and you said again, anecdotal, but its important to get the word out there, because you feel so strong was about this. You were a surgeon by trade, the doctors are pushing to wait, wait, wait, and do you have some of the other people saying, what, we should give us a shot, including the president. You have been on both sides of the aisle here and you think now is the time and you are trying. You know, the chairman of Infectious Disease at ku wrote that article with me. Several local Infectious Disease professionals here in the community have done this, and we really see that as our best opportunity. Trace yeah. Dr. Collier, governor colyer, thank you, sir. We appreciate it. Good to see you again. Trace heating the warning to self isolate could be the difference between life and death for you or a loved one. Ahead, how to keep your Mental Health intact when yo your favoe gym, your Favorite Stores and bars and restaurants are all shut down. What do you do inside the house to keep you and your family same . Its next. Trace 30 of adults in the u. S. Live alone. Living in corey taylor without your daily routine can make anybody feel a bit lonely, even if you have a house full of kids on a partner at your side. What are some of the secrets to make living in seclusion a bit less taxing . Dr. Daniel boulder is a forensic psychiatrist and joins us by skype from fort lauderdale, florida. Thank you for staying up with us, sir. My kids are bored crazy. At least they have social media, thats an important thing. You know, trace, this is not the 1918 flu pandemic. We have Additional Technology so people can stay connected, and whether we are talking face time or skype, fortunately, we can stay talking and communicating with our loved ones. Trace im going to put these on the screen. The first you say is staying connected, and the other is exercise. Its fascinating you say, look, we need to get outside. Is a great stress reliever, but you have all of these mayors and governors around the country that are shutting down parks and hiking trails and beaches, you know, you walk outside your house and people are looking at you like, shouldnt you be inside . Its one of those things where im not sure everybody is on the same level. We need to get out and exercise and feel better, right . Trace, i cant say enough about exercise for your physical and emotional health. Exercises a treatment for depression, anxiety, stress. It helps stave off those conditions. When you exercise, eight releases chemicals in your brain to cause news new connections in your brain and a sense of wellbeing. You dont need to run a marathon, just get outside and go for a brisk walk. This is not something you need to be really intense about it, just a little bit of exercise goes a very long way. Trace i think tip number four, we talk about dont go outside, to number four is no alcohol or tobacco. I get tobacco, because covid19 is zeroing in on smokers, but the alcohol when isolated, a cold beer . Im just saying, maybe there is a wiggle room there, dr. Bober. Studies have shown no amount of alcohol is safe, but im realistic i know people will have a drink once in a while. Drinking and smoking does lower your immunity, and it can cause you, sometimes, not to cope well. Its something we want to try to limit or eliminate if possible. Trace eating healthy, right . Im going to move on from the alcohol thing, because i get it. But eating healthy, clearly, that raises both of the way you feel, the way you look, and your immune system. Yeah, this one is a nobrainer. Fruits and vegetables have a lot of antioxidants in them. They cause you to feel better about yourself, your body is healthier. Its a nobrainer. Trace here is what Governor Andrew Cuomo said about staying above the mental fray. Listen and i will get your response. Sharing one anothers blessings, reasonably, honestly, fairly, without respect to race or sex or geography or political affiliation. That is new york. It is that closeness. That concept of family, of community. That is our greatest strength. And that is what is going to overcome, at the end of the day. Trace you see that there, he was referencing his dad, mario cuomo. But its important, hes right, family structure, the bonds that really are important in your life are very important, mentally, as well. You know, the president talks about the invisible enemy, but really what the invisible enemy is, trace, is our own fears. Fear of loneliness, fear of isolation, fear of what tomorrow will bring. Sometimes, you know, situations like this can bring out the darkest side of human nature, and we all need to find the light in ourselves and think, as a community, to really get through this.

Look at where things stand right now in the United States<\/a>, with every state feeling the infection. The total number of cases rising above 69,000, and the death toll now over 1,000. Ashley strohmeyer live for us in the new york newsroom with more. Ashley . Trace, when you look at the Johns Hopkins<\/a> map showing which areas of the u. S. Have confirmed cases and deaths, is a sea of red and parts. The entire coastline, the east coast line has been swarmed with covid19 cases. You can get a better look and see, a number of total cases for the u. S. Nears 70,000 mark, to put that in perspective for yout 74,500 total cases. We arent too far behind. As far as deaths in the u. S. , we are sitting at almost 1,500. Obviously, these numbers constantly change and the federal Emergency Management<\/a> agency, otherwise known as fema, confirmed the state of new york asked to build emergency morgues as the number of cases surpassed 30,000. A spokesman for fema said the request is being reviewed. Take a listen to what dr. Fauci had to say about the possibility of a second round of covid19. What were starting to see now is a Southern Hemisphere<\/a> and Southern Africa<\/a> and Southern Hemisphere<\/a> countries as we are having cases that are appearing, as they go into their winter season, and if, in fact, they have a substantial outbreak, it will be inevitable that we need to be prepared that we will get a cycle around the second time. What does that mean for us and what we are doing . It totally emphasizes the need to do what we are doing in developing a vaccine, testing it it ready so we will have a vaccine available for that next cycle. And as you just heard dr. Fauci continued by saying what we are doing right now is getting us ready for that possible second wave of the virus. He said that includes developing that vaccine and having it ready to go again. And trace, hes not the only one warning us more to the possibility to come with covid19. A top pentagon doctor said wednesday this pandemic is showing no signs of letting up over the course of the next three weeks. Trace . Trace scary stuff. Ashley strohmeyer live in new york, thank you. More than 470,000 confirmed cases of coronavirus around the world, and out the death toll in both italy and spain has surpassed the official member of dead in china. International correspondent trey yingst live in jerusalem. Trey . Trace, good morning. We are here today actually in the streets of tel aviv getting a better look at what israel looks like after a new lockdown was implemented overnight. We do understand that according to the israeli Prime Minister<\/a> people will be required to stay within a 300foot radius of their homes. Where we are at right now, we do see some people out, likely essential workers are people walking their dogs, but again, people are not supposed to be in the streets as a result of this new order. We do understand the Israeli Military<\/a> will actually be helping local Police Forces<\/a> to enforce the new efforts by the israeli government, and they will be in place for the next seven days. Just 45 minutes south of here, though, in the gaza strip, we are getting some new information overnight indicating there are now nine total cases there. Just yesterday, the Health Ministry<\/a> of hamas said that seven new cases came in. These were all people that were related to a security team, tried to quarantine the original two people in fact if youre a senior tells fox news that they are calling on the united stations for support and emma stone images yesterday show gaza workers making masks and medical kits. They are also building a new Field Hospital<\/a> amid concerns the 2 Million People<\/a> who live there could be overwhelmed if a widespread outbreak were to occur. Moving now to another part of the middle east, in syria, the assad regime is acknowledging the spread of the virus there. Closing schools and universities until april 2nd. The country currently has five confirmed cases, though, with millions of internally displaced refugees, the population is uniquely susceptible to the spread of covid19. Nonprofit organizations do tell fox news they are concerned about their widespread refugee population in the northern province of it live, where fighting has been going on for several months between the syrians and the turks. In iran, more than 27,000 cases of coronavirus and 2,000 deaths. The iranians are likely underreporting the real numbers according to analysts, new images show the government working to convert a Shopping Mall<\/a> into a hospital. That gives a sense of hope how overwhelmed the medical system may be. Ongoing debate in washington, the trumpet ministrations as it will not ease economic pressure. Secretary of state mike pompeo reassured the public that humanitarian efforts are still allowed to enter. The ayatollah refused usaid earlier this week. The population tops 81 Million People<\/a>. No matter where you are in the world, the World Health Organization<\/a> is giving the same advice. Take a listen. Asking people to stayathome and shutting down Population Movement<\/a> is buying time and reducing the pressure on Health System<\/a>s. But on their own, these measures will not extinguish this. As the global number of cases approaches half a Million People<\/a>, we are expecting to see continued lockdowns in places like israel and across europe and the United States<\/a>. The world tried to come together to implement a plan that would stop the coronavirus command as you mentioned before, dr. Fauci noting that there could be a second wave, the entire world preparing for that possibility. Trace . Trace trey, you mentioned are too many people in gaza, and really, boy, the covid19 virus being there, people dont realize, i think, that is one of the most crowded places on the planet. Thats exactly right. Weve done a lot of reporting in the gaza strip over the past two years, and you see People Living<\/a> in very close quarters with limited access to medical care. Hamas is trying to work with egyptian authorities to bring and what supplies they can to the Southern Crossing<\/a> that connects with egypt, and the israelis have allowed a number of test kits to go into the gaza strip, but again, the concern is, with 2 Million People<\/a> around a 27mile long strip of land, if there were to be a widespread outbreak with limited medical care, this could be a new hotbed for the entire middle east of potential cases coming out of gaza. Trace . Trace very true. Trey yingst on the ground in jerusalem. Actually in tel aviv. Trey, thank you. With millions out of work because of coronavirus, many worry about the possibility of being evicted if they are unable to pay rent. Some states have issued executive orders allowing local governments to pause evictions, and others have taken it a step further, saying that no landlord can evict a tenant during the pandemic. So im just really trying to get a message out there to Property Management<\/a> companies and landlords that if you really care about your business practices, you really care about your tenants, if any time in the world, this is when you can show it. Nobody planned for this. Nobody knew it was going to happen. Very little time to actually prepare for it. Trace with us now, and attorney and northwestern adjunct law professor. I want to put this map on the screen to give people an idea of what states are saying, that you cant evict people, and its important because i guess the health aspect is one thing we should look at here, andrew. You kick some out of their health but, they will have to live somewhere. I guess you raise the possibility of covid19 being introduced to another house, that is part of it. That is definitely part of it. It is a health concern. You dont want these people going to homeless shelters. You dont want them having to move in with other relatives and spreading the disease even further. At a minimum, it is a major, major health issue. Trace you know, we always kind of paint tenants as the good guys and landlords as the bad guys, but sometimes you have to say, look, the landlords are also having mortgages to pay, so they need money, as well, to pay their bills, and often times, they are not getting it in times like this. Thats exactly it. A lot of these landlord owners, and the owners of these properties, are either individuals or Small Business<\/a> owners, so they are also facing the heat, and if you have very large numbers of tenants who stop paying, you cant evict them, that is a major, major issue. Not a lot of people are going to feel sorry for the landlords, but these arent all the massive corporations they a lot of people think landlords usually are. Trace yeah, it is the guy who owns a duplex, three apartments, and surviving on the rent he gets from the duplex and the apartment. I wonder, because weve had stories and studies on this, you probably know the answer, is it even legal . There have been rulings, is it legal to stop evictions . That the 64,000 question. That issue is still to be determined, but what i can tell you is the Supreme Court<\/a> justice in nebraska came out this week and said no, its not legal. You cant do this. There is a contract. You have to pay it. Even though i feel extraordinarily sorry for people cant afford to pay, they can be evicted, because there is a contract. Now, that is just one state court judge in one state, but it is very clearly not settled as to whether this can even take place, but by the time the legal challenges take place, it will probably be months, if not six, seven, eight months down the road. Trace and we hope six, seven, eight months down the road, this thing is over. And her come i want to play you Governor Andrew Cuomo<\/a> talking about evictions. Listen to this. I want to protect the people of new york as much as i can. Im going to stop any evictions of any residential or commercial tenants for 90 days. There will be known and there will a moratorium on evictions, residential or commercial, for 90 days. I understand that may affect businesses negatively. Trace yeah, it will affect businesses negatively. But, you know, and a time like this, it really comes back full circle to our first question, you dont really want people on the street. You absolutely dont want people on the street, and kind of the question is, how far is too far . And is it a slippery slope . At some point, do you say, okay, what about mortgage forgiveness . If so, how much of the mortgage do you forgive . Some point, you have to say, look, this is a tragedy, its a huge, huge problem, but the burden can be put on the shoulders of landlords. I dont know at that point is or what stage in time we say enough is enough, but i think, at a minimum, its a really good policy, but we just have to be careful so we dont have landlords in as bad of a predicament as they tenants. Trace yeah, you touched on a very important point there about mortgage forgiveness, because now they are talking about, look, 90 days, three months, for those impacted by covid19, i mean, you look around everybody was impacted by this in some way or the oth other, so are we starting a trend where everybody gets a three month pass on their mortgage . Yeah, thats it, and where do you draw the line . Not everybody is unemployed. Worstcase scenario, we may have a 20 employment rate, that still leaves 80 of the people working. Are the people who are working and who can afford to pay the mortgage, can those people be evicted . Its just, there are a lot of thorny issues, and i realize it is a populist issue, its a great issue, and something needs to be done, but it is a little bit of a slippery slope. Trace yeah, it is. It is. light musical cords actions to help prevent the spread of respiratory diseases. Wash your hands. Avoid close contact with people who are sick. Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth. Stay home when you are sick. Cover your cough or sneeze. Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects with household cleaning spray. For more information, visit cdc. Gov covid19. This message brought to you by the National Association<\/a> of broadcasters and this station. Trace nobody is immune to the to the coronavirus pandemic, not even royals. The World Learning<\/a> wednesday that Prince Charles<\/a>, heir to the british throne, tested positive. Fox news chief correspondent Jonathan Hunt<\/a> live in los angeles. Jonathan . Trace, Prince Charles<\/a>, of course, is 71 years old, so he is right in that demographic that is said to be most at risk from serious complications with the coronavirus. He learned last monday that he was feeling bad and got some of the symptoms, and then went to Britains National<\/a> Health Service<\/a> not a private doctor, but the National Health<\/a> service, we are told for a test, and then he was declared to positively be carrying the coronavirus. Now, clarence house, the princes office, said an official statement it is not possible to ascertain from whom the prince caught the virus, owing to the high number of engagements he carried out in his public roll during recent weeks. And that is the worry. He could have seen hundreds of people between actually contracting the virus and showing the first symptoms and then going for the test. One of the people with whom we know he did have contact was the queen herself. His mother. So there is obviously great concern now as to whether the queen, who is about to turn 93 years old, could be at risk here. Buckingham palace put out a statement which said, her majesty the queen remains in good health. The queen last saw the prince of wales, Prince Charles<\/a> formal name, briefly on the morning of 12 march and is following all of the appropriate advice with regard to her welfare. Theres also a question now in britain among a lot of people there on how one earth did Prince Charles<\/a> get a test so quickly, when so many people who are apparently showing symptoms are not able to get those tests . Well, as you know, trace, for the barometer of all things Public Opinion<\/a>wise regarding the royals in britain, we turn to my mom, sitting in her pictureperfect village of flagmen, england. I reached her by phone today, and from isolation, mum said hes a royal, and thats one of his entitlement, so people should just suck it up. A lot of people gnash their teeth about him getting a test so easily, but he is a royal, and its only right that he has eight. So the complainers should just as if it up. Thats the message from mum, and she, as all of us i think, do, send best wishes to Prince Charles<\/a> and the whole royal family. That message being dont mess with mum. Trace . Trace Jonathan Hunt<\/a>, Jonathan Hunt<\/a>s mom, thank you both.

Trace well, the epicenter of the virus, new york city, everyone is staying indoors to help stop the spread of the virus. Centers and both are transforming into makeshift hospitals, but there is no denying we are running low on supplies in the u. S. , especially in new york city. What do we do when the resources we have are not quite enough . We will ask, get the answers, next. Im finding it hard to stay on top of things a faster laptop could help. Plus, tech support to stay worry free woory free. Boom boom get free business day shipping. At office depot, officemax and officedepot. Com trace even though americans are practicing social distancing, the number of cases in the u. S. Continues to rise, and new york city is becoming epicenter of the pandemic. Subway stations being scrubbed down, streets empty, and cleaning isolation, all that stuff, maybe not working like we thought. Every three days, the infection rate doubles, leading experts to say the worst is yet to come, the governor believes things are beginning to level out. Either way, we are past containment, so what are we doing to prepare . Dr. Xaviers a raffia is a medical doctor and certified board surgeon. I want to play, if i can, abe sound bite from dr. Deborah birx about the next five days and flattening, and get your response. You will see hospital cases continue to increase because they are a reflection of what happened 1 to 2 weeks ago before the full mitigation efforts were put into place. So each person in every place, no matter what county, what community, what state, can work with us to ensure we prevent the spread of this virus to others. Trace so she is saying the rippling is just now getting here. We are now feeling the effects of what started two weeks ago. And so on. Your thoughts . So, you know, this outbreak is really hitting our u. S. Communities in different ways. At different rates and different intensities, and so its hard to generalize its going to happen in the u. S. , because we are also spread out. Certainly, new york is at its worst, or getting to reach its peak here in the next few weeks. When we look at epidemiology studies and look at epidemics and how they spread, we really look at this factor called the reproductive factor, and with the coronavirus, that factor its at about 2. 3, and that means for every person who gets infected with this virus, this person will pass it on to about 2. 3 others. And so you can see how this could develop pretty quickly, essentially trace im going to stop you if i can. Doctor, you are saying 2. 3 with no mitigation, or 2. 3, even with social distancing, just so were clear . So this is no mitigation. If we are not doing social distancing, this is about how rapidly its going to spread. If you are a cashier at a Grocery Store<\/a> or a doctor taking care of a lot of people with this virus, certainly you are going to come into contact with a lot more people, but in general, thats if we are not doing the social distancing. Essentially, what we see, and the reason it is affecting so many different communities at different rates and intensities, is that, essentially, we get a few cases not a lot then kind of start to see this rapid growth of cases, and once we start to see it slow down, we know we are kind of at the peak, and then we see the cases go down. And so, for new york, being the epicenter, it doesnt surprise us, because, you know, the population density and the fact that it is such a hub for travelers. Trace are you heart and at all, dr. Shirazi, by the numbers the past two or three days in new york and the fact they are very consistent, 5,000 cases yesterday, 5,000 roughly today, the death toll went down a little bit today. Is that heartening for you, at all . Yeah, its really devastating, and i think everybody is very concerned, Health Care Workers<\/a> are, you know, feel the pressure of this pandemic. Not just in new york, but across, you know come across the u. S. And across the globe, really, and when we look at health care capacity, we really are looking at three limiting factors here. One is in the staff thats going to take care of all of these people that are going to be ill coming up very soon. And two is the hospital beds. And three is the equipment. You know, including ppe and ventilators. And we are really struggling to meet the demands of the limiting factors. Trace you know, Governor Cuomo<\/a> was saying today, he believes is starting to level out. Ive got about 15 seconds left for you. Yeah, so i think that is great. I think we are doing the best we can. I know we have equipment on the way, and what we can do is really learn from the cases in new york, because we have other states that are starting to pick up, and theres a lot to learn about how we mitigated in new york, like new orleans and louisiana and texas, and certainly we are feeling it here in california, so there is no manual for this, you know, we are doing the best we can with all the experts involved. Trace weve got to go. With dr. Shirazi, thank you for your time, we appreciate it. Worldwide cases of coronavirus now nearing 500,000. Continuing coverage of the pandemic and breaking news.

Trace do you think the only Movie Theater<\/a> is something youll see more of in the future or is this to fill the niche needed by the pandemic we are having right now . Well, i think its a little of both. Its been something thats been coming for a while. We still love to go to the theater. Still love to see it on the big screen. But ultimately everybody wants to be in the comfort of their own home when they are absorbing their entertainment. Everybody downloads their stuff and saves it in streams it later. And we always had that in the plan and i think just being able to pivot that quickly, not being an independent, but also the fact that we didnt want to leave the theater behind because theyve committed to us, they committed to putting us on the big screen come up and we thought, while we are doing this lets bring them along with us and we can help ts that are shuttered. Theyve got all their titles taken out of the weekend. They have no opening weekends. We were still able to show our film at the same time share with these Small Businesses<\/a> that are under stress at this moment. Its a feelgood story because its about two guys, like you said, reinventing themselves. Bobby is a frustrated artist and im a frustrated pizza chef and i decide to rope into opening a pizzeria and the rest is comedic history. Trace talk about the ripple effect, a economy clearly suffering in Movie Theater<\/a> is part of that. Did yall think, you know what, heres the deal this is not going to bring these businesses back, not going to pay their next years mortgage, but it will help the businesses stay alive. There is this ripple effect, not just theaters but other businesses down the line, actors, people like that are going to make some money off this thing. Is that kind of the concept . Absolutely. Its always a give give with us always in the independent scene. Its about making this kind of relationship with the smaller theater chains who compete with these big titles also have to survive. This moment of stress, phoenix, oregon, you go to phoenixoregonmovie. Com, all these theater chains will be to debate with us and the revenue and its a great thing because this past weekend, they were shot and they saw some revenue from this title. This may be the new normal. Of course, everyone still wants to go to the big screen and i dont think thats ever going to go away. But should have Something Like<\/a> this happen again or should we choose again open and in the film and you cant compete with some of these big marvel superhero movies, you know, we are streaming them themselves but we dont have a streaming Company Behind<\/a> us. Phoenixoregonmovie. Com and you can watch it for 6. 50. Trace funny thing is i drove through phoenix oregon a couple of weeks ago. Its a cool, small fun town. The whole concept as you pay 650. You get to see the movie one time. It streams one time, like the movie, you can pick it. Its a onetime thing. Tell us about that. You get 48 hours to watch it, like most purchases to watch online films, but i believe that we are initially because we are participating with these theaters, and a lot of first timers that rent this film, well call it a rental, right . They are actually going to be able to download it, get a link to download it when its available for purchase. They actually get a tube or one with the ticket. Its a winwin all the way around. We really want to again support the independent scene, but especially the small theaters who had to shutter their doors this weekend when all of this happen. You know, these People Struggle<\/a> sometimes in this day and age competing with big titles, so i think for us, its about giving back to each other. And when you watch phoenix, oregon, like you said, you realize the story line is about people helping each other and loving each other and supporting each others dreams. What a message at this time. It really is. Great effort. Jesse borrego, thank you so much for coming on tonight. We appreciate it. Its uplifting. Phoenixoregonmovie. Com. Trace in case we didnt get it, phoenixoregonmovie. Com.

We are here in the israeli city of tel aviv or a new lockdown order is in place requiring people to stay within 300 feet of their homes. There are a few exceptions to this new rule implemented by israeli Prime Minister<\/a> benjamin netanyahu. The exceptions are people going to work or walking their dogs, but very few people in the streets of tel aviv and really across israel this morning as there is really government is going to be using the military to support local Police Officials<\/a> to actually implement the new restrictions that would be in case seven days, just about 45 minutes south of here in the gaza strip. We got new information indicating there is a total nine coronavirus cases there. The seven new cases that were reported overnight are from Security Officials<\/a> who helped to transfer two original gazans, images yesterday showed gazan workers making masks and medical kits to prepare for the possibility of an outbreak. Gaza also building a new Field Hospital<\/a> amid concerns that the 2 Million People<\/a> who live there could be overwhelmed by the coronavirus. Moving now to another part of the middle east in syria, the assad regime is acknowledging the spread of the virus to my closing schools and universities until april 2nd. The country has five confirmed cases but with millions of internally displaced regimes, the country is uniquely so that the both of the spread of covid19. Nonprofit organizations tell fox news that they are concerned about widespread finally in the iran, they are more than 27,000 cases of coronavirus and 2,000 deaths. The iranians are likely underreporting the real numbers according to analysts and new images they are sure the government to work to convert a Shopping Mall<\/a> into a hospital. That shows you how overwhelmed their medical system may be. These People Administration<\/a> has signaled it wont ease economic pressure. Secretary of state mike pompeo assured the public that humanitarian efforts are still allowed to enter iran. As we know, the ayatollah refused aid earlier this week. Irans Current Population<\/a> stands at 81 Million People<\/a>, though the matter what you are in the world, the whitehorse organization is giving the same advice. Take a listen. Asking people to stay at home and shutting down Population Movement<\/a> is buying time and reducing the pressure on Health System<\/a>s. But on their own, these measures will not extinguish the pandemics. As the world number of cases approach is half a Million People<\/a>, we are going to continue to see lockdowns across europe, the middle east, and the United States<\/a>. As mentioned earlier, dr. Fauci concerned there could be a second wave of coronavirus in the winter time, certainly going to be keeping an eye on the Southern Hemisphere<\/a> to see what develops there in the coming months. Trace . Trace lets hope theres a vaccine. Trey yingst live in tel aviv. A large amount of employees working home because of the coronavirus and this is creating the perfect storm for hackers. What can companies do to protect themselves . Rob chang is a tech cyber expert, joins us by skype. Thank you for staying up with us. We appreciate it. Lots of people are working from home which means a lot of people are logging on to Company Networks<\/a> and that could be risky, right . That is correct. I mean, the fbi, department of Homeland Security<\/a> said be on the lookout for scams related to the virus. There is a lot of fake emails. The most recent ones are from the World Health Organization<\/a>, the center of disease control, all of these two organizations with fake emails coming out and be careful because it could be a fake link to a fake website and they are trying to get your credentials, and the other one, more importantly, if you dont have good antivirus software, thats ran somewhere. It can get into your computer or your Companys Network<\/a> if you are link into that. You are talking about what companies can do in the first tip is Cyber Security<\/a> training should be mandatory for all employees. What will that do, what will that teach us . The main thing it teaches you, and i will try to drill into everyones head mack right now is to look, when you get an email to look at the sender and look at the exact email address of the sender. They have a lot of exercises about this in training, but you have to look at the address of the sender and make sure it exactly matches the sender. For example, the bot health organization, make sure it actually looks like the World Health Organization<\/a> email address. The cdc and someone like that. Spend many hours going after this one concept to make sure it drills in your head to do this what you open emails. Trace number two is to use the same Cybersecurity Software<\/a> on work as you do on home stations. Why is that important . Very important for the same reason is because ransom ware is on the rise, you are on the homework needs to be a corporate grade, business grade. Frequently it is not. Thats a security of how theyll get into your Corporate Network<\/a>. Trace number three, utilize remote management tools, meaning what . Right. So this is for the i. T. People. Because everyone is going to get into the Corporate Network<\/a> from remote parts, right now in our nation we have more remote ports opened than ever before. Thats really good for remote access, but also a security my advice is to close these ports between 12 00 a. M. And 6 00 a. M. When nobody is using them, close them because the bad guys can get into those same ports you are trying to grant access to your employees. Trace tips and workers can do, the first one is to use complex passwords. That seems to be a natural thing is that Everyone Wants<\/a> you to use some password that no one else can figure out. Talk about that. Actually, complex passwords are good. But the main thing i tell people to do is to not use your personal passwords for your work passwords. You have a work email and you have a personal email. Do not use the same password for those. Do not use any of the password to use for your personal for your work, because of all the breaches, its fair to say that most of your personal passwords, the bad guys know. If you use the same ones, thats another security hole. Trace the whole password thing is a little annoying because you got passwords for every different thing, you want machines to remember them. It says change your passwords all often and every six weeks is your recommendation on that. Every six weeks seems like its a lot. That actually. You should try to change your password as often as feasible. Six weeks is very aggressive. The more you change, the less probability that the bad guys will know what your password is at that point in time. Thats aggressive. I didnt write that. I would say ive heard three months, six months a year. The problem we are dealing with is that people do not change their passwords for decades. Decades down to, lets say once a year on average for the nati nation. Different passwords for work and personal use . Yes. I just reviewed. Thats probably the most important one is to have different passwords for work and personal. I mean, 50 over 50 of people use the same passwords for work and home. Thats the big problem. I would say a lot of rent somewhere is getting in through that one security hole. Trace they are easy pickings, the people who use the same passwords are easy pickings. Rob chang, good for you to stay up with us. Thank you so much. Nice to meet you. Thank you very much. Trace the coronavirus hitting even the rich and famous.

Trace nobody is immune to the coronavirus pandemic, not even royals. The world learned wednesday that Prince Charles<\/a>, the heir to the british throne, tested positive. Jonathan hunt live for us in the loss angeles with more on this. Jonathan . Trace, Prince Charles<\/a> and 71 years auld, so there is great concern that he has tested positive because he has been that demographic which they say is at the greatest risk once the disease is contracted by them. What clarence house, the princes office said, said hes doing just fine. He only exhibited mild symptoms and went immediately for a test. It was confirmed positive, but they say hes doing just fine. Hes in self isolation right now on his scottish estate. His wife, 72yearold camilla is also self isolating, not with Prince Charles<\/a> at this point. For all things in terms of the Public Opinion<\/a> on the royals, we always turned to my mom. I spoke to her today about this, trace, and she said that she is very concerned about the prince. She said this just proves that this virus doesnt respect any class system. She says it even gets the royals. Not a precise quote but she was very concerned. But most concerned interestingly, mom said that for the queen, a great concern for everybody, the queen who turns 94 in april could be at risk because she did spend some time recently with Prince Charles<\/a> and obviously there is a lag between contacting the virus and actually starting to show any symptoms. But Buckingham Palace<\/a> said in their own statement, her majesty the queen remains in good health. The queen last saw the prince of wales briefly on the morning of 12 march and is following all the proper advice with regard to her welfare. There has also been some questions in britain raised by some about how Prince Charles<\/a> was so easily able to go and get a coronavirus test when so many people showing symptoms apparently much worse than the prince had have not been able to get it. Mom and her opinion too, thats one of the privileges of being a royal. As i said, shes most worried about the queen. Everybody wants the queen the stay healthy. And moms word, we need her more than ever right now. Trace Jonathan Hunt<\/a> life for us in l. A. The sports world is not immune to the coronavirus either.

The coronavirus pandemic bringing businesses to a halt, but one chicago Coating Company<\/a> is trying to turn misfortune into something good for others. Fox news correspondent matt finn reports. The high and that chicago catering business is serving free gourmet quality meals to his hungry neighbors. We are struggling and it makes everything that much harder. This provider caters thousands of events per year and now its business canceled throughout at least may. It was crushing. We purchase a building februar february 21st. Not knowing anything thats going to happen. A building typically used for parties turn soup kitchen. Caterers using the resources and donations to cook more than 200 meals per day in a nearly touchless to go system. Whole milk or skim milk .

We have cooks in our kitchen, the only person working in the whole family. One of many u. S. Businesses rising to the occasion of this pandemic, using its facilities or ability to help, hurting americans. Hopefully itll keep us afloat long enough to make it to the other side. The president said this country is not built to be shut down and looks to have been this is open and this time partially by eastern sunday. In chicago, matt finn, fox news. Trace we have all heard the phrases essential business tossed around but what does that include, causing quite the stir in the criminal Justice System<\/a>. Most states shut in order of designating all attorneys as essential but new york does not and it wasnt until sunday that new york decided to label criminal Defense Attorneys<\/a> as essential business. In new york, courts are only operating under what Governor Cuomo<\/a> has deemed an emergency, stripping many people of their Constitutional Rights<\/a>. A criminal defense attorney, you wrote an oped in the New York Daily News<\/a> and i want to read part of it and get your response. It goes to say that our clients are among the most vulnerable in society as they face the full weight of the government against them. In addition, our team has to process catalog and analyze gigabytes of evidence that the u. S. Attorneys and das bring us on hard coffees and cds. The government isnt anywhere close to 100 online so we cannot be either. State and federal prosecutors clearly have not stopped working during this time, which means Defense Attorneys<\/a> cannot either, nor can we afford to do so with our hands tied behind your back straight you believe at this point in time your hands have been tied behind your backs. They were because on friday the first thing that Governor Cuomo<\/a> did is they said lets kill all the lawyers because his executive order did not include lawyers at all. When i saw the border i was li like, where are lawyers, attorneys, i read it a couple of times. Mechanism deemed essential, i sent in a request for such. This is in contrast to other states. Basically 25 states have designated lawyers as essential, and all lawyers, new york, michigan, cannot speak for why michigan did it, Governor Cuomo<\/a> was a former attorney general, the attorney general, former district attorney. This is a move that kind of shocked me. There was some clarification after the oped came out, the new york state, in conjunction with the new York State Association<\/a> of criminal Defense Attorneys<\/a>, they also applied on behalf of all criminal Defense Attorneys<\/a> and there was a thing that said criminal Defense Attorneys<\/a> are essential. But a lot of other attorneys basically arent and what Governor Cuomo<\/a> has done, has expended the free rights to a speedy trial, he has also suspended the rights to the relief if ada doesnt provide a case, a felony case, resenting a case to a grand jury. Usually a sixday period where if youre incarcerated you have to present a case, thats been suspended. Youre basically Holding People<\/a> indefinitely. That has to change. Trace as you are looking down at the list of what essential businesses were, when youve got to lawyer you didnt find it. But when you got to liquor store, you did. The next part of your oped says, quoting here, forget Liquor Stores<\/a>. When the governor decrees that cops and prosecutors cannot make arrests, i will be the first want to say that criminal Defense Attorneys<\/a> are not essential. Until then, you Better Believe<\/a> we are. That really is kind of an argument that people were surprised by is that, you know, even now they are saying that criminal attorneys, fine, but you got a lot of people working on these cases and you think people are really at some point in time going to need their attorneys in the coming days and weeks. Yeah. And i think let me be the first to say that im glad the Liquor Stores<\/a> are open. At this time, you need liquor its absolutely essential. Im not saying they should be held what im saying is, okay, where are the priorities . The governor has estimated Liquor Stores<\/a> as essential, but not lawyers . We can make all the lawyer jokes in the world. Goes back to shakespeare and all that stuff. But when people need help, the first person they turn to in the legal context is obviously a lawyer. It doesnt mean that when the chords are operating at a modified basis, doesnt mean they dont need lawyers. Tons of my civil colleagues basically can file anything at this point. What is deemed essential is very restrictive at this point, even within the criminal context, its basically arraignment. All other emotions we have times right now with pending emotions having their cases dismissed and they are in limbo right now. So this is its a problem because new york state on the criminal side doesnt do Electronic Filing<\/a>. There is no reason that there shouldnt be electric filing on the criminal side. There is on the civil, commercial side of new york state. The federal system has Electronic Filing<\/a>. If there werent, things to be moving along. The federal system, we are able to file motions. Even though its modified they are too, at least with the Electronic Filing<\/a> we can get things done. Trace slightly offtopic, i went to get your take on the porch around the country to release a lot of these inmates whom they fear might get coronavirus because the jails in the prisons really are not equipped to handle these people, not equipped to contain covid19. Look, i think the country as a whole has been seeing criminal Justice Reform<\/a> and its been criticized, particularly in new york for the release of some of the bail positions good with covid19, it could be a positive thing that comes out of the situation which is reevaluating who needs to be incarcerated. New york is the prison capital of the world. You have more people, we account for one quarter of the worlds prison population, more than russia, more than china. This is a situation where hopefully what comes of this is to say, okay, who would we put in jail . Who should jail be reserved for . The people that theyre the most harm . Even if its nonviolent . I think this is a good thing, lowlevel offenders should maybe not be held in jail. Weve seen numerous Horror Stories<\/a> of people stuck in jail because they couldnt make minimal bail and terrible things happen to them, so this may be an opportunity for the criminal Justice System<\/a> as a whole to reevaluate itself.

A unanimous vote in the senate doesnt mean this is law and it could be 3 weeks until americans see that 2 trillion in their bank account.

Plus theres 350 billion in loan guarantees for Small Businesses<\/a> that will become grants from the government if those Small Businesses<\/a> keep employees on the payroll. Take a listen. If i were writing your but i would say the senate. From one of the most contentious, partisan periods in the nations history to passing this rescue package 1000 all in one quarter. It was a partisan process getting to this point, the senate had one version of the bill that was much thinner than what we have now. The house had something that was far more extensive, democrats in the house led by nancy pelosi wanted tax credits for everything from Wind Turbines<\/a> to solar farms. Nancy pelosi says she will take what she can get. When we see that the bill passed the senate, are dismissed majority leader will give 24 hours notice at least to our members that the bill will be on the floor and we can show them what the bill is. What is important is for us to recognize the good that is in the bill, appreciate it for what it does, dont judge it for what it doesnt because we have more bills to come. They will get 36 hours to look at the bill and see everything with the new 883 pages, members of the house are due back in washington friday a. M.

Governor andrew cuomo cautioning the money from the relief bill is far from enough. Is the package. It gives us 3. 8 billion. The whole is as high as 15 billion. How do you plug a 15 billion hall with 3. 8 billion . You dont. Jeff paul joins us live from the la newsroom with the latest on new yorks dire situation. Reporter that situation only seems to be getting worse by the they were from doctors describing what is happening as apocalyptic. Doctors are trying to battle against and keep up with the high number of patients second by the coronavirus but are running out of resources. Officials are working to track down even more beds and are desperate for lifesaving equipment like ventilators which are in short supply. They fear the number of sick could spike in a few weeks time overrunning area hospitals like what was seen in italy and spain, new york mayor bill diblasio is raising concerns about funding saying what is being allotted from the 2. 2 trillion stimulus plan to arguably the hardest hit state isnt enough. Someone do the math down there in washington in the Senate Republican<\/a> majority, someone do the math, they gave us less than one of the money they were giving out to cities and states and we have a third of the cases in the nation. That is just immoral. Some hospitals are setting up makeshift morgues outside medical facilities due to capacity issues, at one New York Hospital<\/a> in a 24hour period 13 people died from the coronavirus. More Police Officers<\/a> are getting sick as they work to patrol the streets hoping to enforce social distancing but for the most part streets are into, nonessential businesses are closed and people are staying away from each other, new yorkers say everyone seems to be doing their part to flatten that curve.

The market analyst in new york city, i want your reaction because for the First Time Since<\/a> february the market was up for the second day in a row today, maybe a baby step but significant nonetheless. Use it is. I dont think we should get overjoyed right now in terms of the market has come back up i think we are looking at something that is going to be more of a longterm situation, this market is very headline driven and we already know theres a lot more headlines ahead of us. I anticipate we are still going to have volatility related to the market. We are going to have to be patient, ride out the storm at not get too caught up when we have a spike up or down for right now. You talk about flattening two curves, the pandemic curve as well as the financial curve. I talk to a lot of people, listen to a lot of people. Is it reasonable to do both simultaneously . It will be really difficult but the stakes are high for both of those curves. Obviously we have to stop the spread of this disease the best way that we can. The other side of this is how much of a price are we going to pay economically. We cannot have the entire economy falter because of this. I am concerned about Small Businesses<\/a> because Small Businesses<\/a>, i am talking 500 employees or less employees almost half of the people of this country and those are the businesses that are really suffering. We have to make sure this bill is going to do enough to keep them going. That is critical for the longterm Economic Outlook<\/a> of this country. Trace we have the president thinking that your cant be worse than the disease, followed by what nancy pelosi says she thinks is the remedy. Watch these. I dont want that your to be worse than the problem. You can destroy a country this way, by closing it down where it literally goes from being the most prosperous, we have the best economy in the history of our country three weeks ago and all of a sudden we are supposed to shut it down. If you go to the economic side of it, but yours the best answer to the economy but at the end the best minds in the country working 24 7 and all hands on deck to take us to that place. Trace some saying heres the deal, we need to eradicate this disease but you have a lot of smart people saying if we eradicate this disease it will take months and by then the economy will be done. This is a tough one. The populist view of this is going to be on the health side. We cant have the entire nation getting sick and having a tremendous death toll. That is completely unacceptable. Everyone understands that, but at some point in time this virus is going to pass, hopefully sooner than later and then what are we going to be left with. We are going to be left with potentially an economy in shambles. I know the president of the experts talked about this is going to be of the. We are going to hit the bottom but once we get past virus we will shoot right back up. That may be the case related to the stock market perhaps but for me the economic damage that potentially could happen im not sure the longer this continues particularly against Small Businesses<\/a> that they can recover that dramatically. It is really a tough situation here. Your thoughts on the idea of the stimulus package Going Forward<\/a> here, a lot of people said this is good bandaid but as we go down the road we will need a lot more. I agree with that. This is a bandaid, some people are talking about this being a stimulus. It is not a stimulus. It is just relief and i think the government is going to have to do more to be able to stimulate the economy post virus. Trace thanks for staying up with us and we appreciate your insight. We just talked to dan on skype and the whole idea behind medicine is you talk to your doctor the same way, it is called telemedicine, facetime your doctor for my competitor. In 2020 in the technological age we originally 18 of doctors nationwide can facetime, cannot the patients by computer. We will talk to an expert next to says that is a bigtime problem in the age of coronavirus. S to help prevent the spread of respiratory diseases. Wash your hands. Avoid close contact with people who are sick. Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth. Stay home when you are sick. Cover your cough or sneeze. Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects with household cleaning spray. For more information, visit cdc. Gov covid19. This message brought to you by the National Association<\/a> of broadcasters and this station. Of broadcasters bewere bringing the theater home to you with xfinity movie premiere. Such news. I know what this is. This is a real thing. Our Brand New Service<\/a> that lets you watch movies at home, while theyre still in the theater. Oh, mister elton. Ahh he has figured out a way to be invisible. They picked the wrong woman. Just say xfinity movie premiere into your voice remote to bring the theater to you. Rising cases of coronavirus training Healthcare System<\/a> that is not designed for this amount of patients, the workload causing some states to ask retired healthcare workers to come back and help, urging patients to not physically see a doctor unless it is an emergency, relying instead on telemedicine. Lets bring in doctor dan fields, from md staffers. Thank you for joining us. I want to put this survey on the screen because it was shocking to me. It says only 18 of doctors have access to videoconferencing, 19 book video patients each week. In 2020 it is astonishing to me in the world of technology that you cant facetime your doctor. It is pretty astounding in this modern world the doctors could see patients from their Office Without<\/a> the patient having to come to the doctor and the patients can see their doctor without having to leave their home. Wouldnt that be great. It is 2020, you can do that but only one person3 of doctors in your survey was about internal medicine doctors, not doctors over also the number is lower. Telemedicine, a lot of people reapply on this a, you dont want to rush into an emergency room or your doctors Office Without<\/a> calling. My daughter was not feeling well a couple days ago. What do we do in the meantime . We are stepping up to the plate, the company i work for works 24 7 to put doctors in these positions for Major Companies<\/a> who are providing the service. Those who just retired, everybody we can find to provide a backflow for the physicians on the front line. Trace we are just starting to get to be back to the doctors who do telemedicine are getting reimbursed or guaranteed to be reimbursed for this. That is a good step forward. That is a critical step because nobody works for free, at least usually. Sometimes you can get people to get going at the beginning but you need to pay the bills and the other thing that changed is the privacy requirements and that is important, the patients dont have access to the sophisticated telehealth platforms. If they can just pick up their computer into what we are doing with skype or face time or something similar and do that with something they are familiar with, make contact with her doctor right away and this was prohibited. The other thing that changed is working across state lines. I could have a doctor working during the day in india seeing patients in the United States<\/a> conceivably during the daytime while we are sleeping in recovery. There are so many possible tweets we can make to improve it. Trace lets play this from doug doocy about telemedicine. Are you should an executive order to expand coverage of telemedicine services. This will help people to continue social distancing. I sent a letter to hhs secretary alex azar requesting special Enrollment Period<\/a> on the federal insurance marketplace so that people that lost their income can Purchase Health<\/a> insurance. Trace the critical part of this, we are going to be asking a lot of doctors to come back into the mix, they are older and susceptible to coronavirus you dont want to put them on the front line. You want to put them on a video screen to screen a lot of patients. Is that a Fair Assessment<\/a> . I am a perfect example of that myself. I now fit into the group, not that i feel old but i am 63 and fit into that group of higher risk and if i can sit here and help out screening people i could do for 5 or 6 an hour and save those people from having to be exposed to other people and other people being spared that exposure. Trace you say the ideas a lot of retired doctors might go to the front line but if we could lower that risk and use doctors elsewhere that would be a big step forward to the distancing and so forth. Yes, it would be a real force multiplier. Thank you, appreciate it. Social distancing in statewide shutdowns have changed their way of life but how cautious should we really be, the elderly are at greatest risk but some say we are coddling them at the expense of our economy deciding what to prioritize in a time of chaos.

Famous as the request is being reviewed. Listen to what doctor Anthony Fauci<\/a> said about a second round of covid19. What we are seeing in Southern Africa<\/a> is cases that are appearing as they go into their winter season. If in fact they have a substantial outbreak it will be inevitable that we will get a cycle. What does that mean for us and what we are doing . It totally emphasizes the need to do what we are doing in developing a vaccine, testing it quickly and trying to get it ready so we will have a vaccine available for that next cycle. Reporter you heard him say we are doing what is right to get ready for a possible second wave of the virus, that includes developing that vaccine and having it ready to go before it begins and hes not the only one warning of the possibility, top pentagon doctor say wednesday this pandemic is showing no signs of letting up over the course of the next three weeks. Trace there are 470,000 confirmed cases of coronavirus worldwide and the death toll in italy and spain has surpassed the number of fatalities in china. Reporter a lot happening around the world. We are in the israeli city of tel aviv, a nationwide lockdown went into place last night, people are not going to leave their homes unless they stay within a 300 foot radius, there are exceptions like medical emergencies and essential work but we have seen Border Police<\/a> assisting the military, patrolling tel aviv and other israeli cities to ensure people adhere to these guidelines, 45 minutes south of here in the gaza strip we got new information indicating the total number of positive coronavirus cases has reached nine people. The new people infected overnight include 7 security guards assisting with the transfer of two gazans to quarantine zone. This is appealing to the United Nations<\/a> for supported images showed workers making masks and medical kits to prepare for an outbreak. Gaza is building a new Field Hospital<\/a> amid concerns the 2 Million People<\/a> who live there could be overwhelmed by coronavirus. Moving to another part of the middle east, in syria the assad regime is acknowledging the spread of the virus. The country currently has 5 confirmed cases with millions of internally displaced refugees, a uniquely susceptible spread of the population, nonprofit organizations say they are concerned about the widespread refugee population, where fighting has erupted for several months. Finally in iran there are 27,000 cases of coronavirus in 2000 is, the iranians are likely underreporting real numbers and new images show the government working to convert a Shopping Mall<\/a> into a hospital giving a sense of how overwhelmed their medical system may be. There are ongoing debates about sanctions relief the Trump Administration<\/a> signals it wont easy economic pressure. Mike pompeo reassured the public that humanitarian efforts are allowed to enter iran. The ayatollah refused coronavirus aid earlier this week. No matter where you are in the world the World Health Organization<\/a> is giving the same advice. Asking people to stay at home and shutting down Population Movement<\/a>, reducing the pressure on the Health System<\/a> but on their own these measures will not extinguish the virus. Is the global number of cases approach half 1 Million People<\/a> countries around the world including israel, europe and the middle east and the United States<\/a> will continue lockdown procedures in an effort to slow the spread of coronavirus. Trace life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, americans are finding the sentiment hard to sustain amid the coronavirus, some saying life is more important, others feel the economy and restoring society to the way it was should be a top priority. Lieutenant governor dan patrick creating quite a controversy with his remarks on the issue. My message is lets get back to work, lets get back to living, lets be smart about it. Those of us who are 70 plus will take care of ourselves but dont sacrifice the country, dont do that. Reporter kevin mcgee is a commentary writer for the Washington Examiner<\/a>, thanks for joining us. In your oped in the Washington Examiner<\/a> entitled we should not sacrifice our most vulnerable and you write, quote, there is reason conservatives have fought against assisted suicide, abortion and radical laws that would force families to take their loved ones off of life support after a certain time because life is sacred and it cannot and should not be assigned a value by prioritizing things like the economy and even community. Clearly you come down on the side of we got to cure this thing, contained this thing before we work on the economy. We must tackle the cyrus, this isnt to say there cant be a longterm solution that does not require a mass quarantine of this magnitude. There need to be certain steps moving forward that get the public back on its feet and open of these schools and churches are currently shutdown but to say these preventive measures have not been effective and have not been useful in protecting the most vulnerable citizens is a dangerous argument. Trace what do you think of the argument that the 70yearolds, 75yearolds to get a voice in how we move forward. What is your thought . It is a noble argument that he would be willing to risk his health for the future of the country but he cant ask an entire generation of people to do the same who might not feel that way as well and there does need to be a collective sacrifice, the younger people, whether that is going to get groceries for their older neighbors or pitching in where may be to make sure the older residents and high risk individuals get the help and protection they need. The la times quoted stanford biophysicist in the la times and it says, quote, leavitt fears Public Health<\/a> measures that have shutdown large swaths of the economy could cause their own Health Catastrophe<\/a> is lost jobs lead to poverty, helplessness, time and again weve seen suicide rates go up when the economy spirals and effusions these studies, doctors who recession and depression, opioid epidemics, homelessness crisis, suicide rates that spiral. Their own death toll involved in these other strategies when you go after hitting a virus and ignoring the economy. What do you say to those who say there is risk everywhere . The coronavirus is not the only problem we are going to face right now it is a principle problem. We must get control of this virus, do mass testing, quarantine the neighborhoods that have a lot of numbers and then we can start to fix these other things are going to be problems down the road, no doubt about that but first things first. What happens if those take months . It is going to take months for this to happen and for us to go on month it will wreck the economy and financially ruin millions, is your advice still the same . First things first . I dont think that is going to be a choice. The federal government and the Trump Administration<\/a> are working overtime to make sure that is not a consequence, that the economy doesnt tank completely, you saw the markets rebound over the congress finished its stimulus package. That is a hopeful sign that things will return to normal eventually but not right now. I want to read the last part of your oped, i fear what might happen if my grandparents contract the virus and i know im not alone but our response is about more than staving off death but preserving a life worth living in which our grandparents are healthy and our children immune to this novel disease, in which the blessings we give up temporarily, church, education, community, prosperity and so on are even more valuable upon return. Your last word. It is important we as a society come together right now and realize the problem we face is much bigger than any of us and that is going to require collective sacrifice, we have to give up that social time, we have to give up a lot of the physical freedoms we once enjoyed but the benefits of that longterm are going to be so much greater. Wearing news out of Great Britain<\/a> where Prince Charles<\/a>, the air to the throne has tested positive for covid19. The other concern is the day before he got his diagnosis he paid a visit to the queen. Into a smaller life . Are your asthma treatments just not enough . Then see what could open up for you with fasenra. It is not a steroid or inhaler. It is not a rescue medicine or for other eosinophilic conditions. Its an addon injection for people 12 and up with asthma driven by eosinophils. Nearly 7 out of 10 adults with asthma may have elevated eosinophils. Fasenra is designed to target and remove eosinophils, a key cause of asthma. It helps to prevent asthma attacks, improve breathing, and can reduce the need for oral steroids like prednisone. Fasenra may cause allergic reactions. Get help right away if you have swelling of your face, mouth, and tongue, or trouble breathing. Dont stop your asthma treatments unless your doctor tells you to. Tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection, or your asthma worsens. Headache and sore throat may occur. Could you be living a bigger life . Ask an asthma specialist about fasenra. Nobody is immune to the coronavirus pandemic, not even a royals, the World Learning<\/a> that Prince Charles<\/a>, the air to the british throne tested positive. Jonathan hunt joins us with details on that. Good morning. Prince charles having mild symptoms. So he decided to go in for a coronavirus test at the National Health<\/a> service that came back positive and Prince Charles<\/a> is now as a result self isolating which is what you do on a 50,000 acre state where he is right now. His wife also self isolating, she has not shown any symptoms but is doing so out of abundance of caution. The princes office put out a Statement Today<\/a> saying, quote, it is not possible to ascertain from whom the prince caught the virus owing to the high number of engagements he carried out in recent weeks. One person we do know that he came in contact with after he was presumably infected with the coronavirus is the queen herself, that has led to a great deal of concern about her potential health, Buckingham Palace<\/a> put out a statement saying, quote, her majesty the queen remains in good health, the queens met with the prince of wales on the morning of 12 march and is following all the appropriate advice with regard to her welfare, there are also questions in certain quarters in britain about how easy it was for Prince Charles<\/a> to get a test when he was showing mild symptoms when others showing much more severe symptoms are struggling to get those tests. My mom is the barometer of Public Opinion<\/a>, i spoke to her stay, she was sitting, self isolating herself in somerset and she told me by phone, quote, he is a royal and that is one of his entitlements so people should just suck it up. A lot of people might 30 about him getting a test so easily but he is a royal and it is only right that he have it. The complaint, should just zip it up. Mom is always been the epitome of that Great British<\/a> phrase keep calm and carry on. Jonathan hunt in la, thank you. Small businesses feeling the effects of the coronavirus and the 2 trillion stimulus package on the horizon and trillion dollars, 2 trillion, it will be voted on on friday morning and deal is this. When the house passes it and we believe the house will pass it the next thing is the checks have to go out but now we are being told that might take 2 to 3 weeks before people actually see the money in their accounts, 2 to 3 weeks. In the world of the Global Pandemic<\/a>, is a lifetime. Of next, how quickly will people be able to go back to business as usual. Y 100 years g the military community, weve seen you go through tough times and every time, youve shown us, youre much tougher your heart, courage and commitment has always inspired us and now its no different so, were here with financial strength, stability and experience you can depend on and the online tools you need because you have always set the highest standard and reaching that standard is what were made for we find a way through it. Its about taking care of each other. Its the small parts that make a big difference. At chevy, we promise to do ours. Were offering chevy owners complimentary onstar crisis assist services and wifi data. If you need a new chevy, interestfree financing for 84 months with deferred payments for 120 days on many of our most popular models. You may even shop online and take delivery at home. Its just our way of doing our part. Trace the stimulus package is going to be a go, the question is what is the corner of wall and broad of this . We looking at our futures and it is down across the board. Youve got the dow coming down 335 points and what we are seeing apparently is full me once shame on you for me twice shame on me. On tuesday night take that back, and monday night we heard the package would go through. Tuesday we had that 2000 point rally, the market was up 2000 points and yesterday the dow is up 495 points, First Time Since<\/a> february we have had two consecutive days where the dow is up. It looks like the package will go forward and the market is saying we dont believe it. It is down now. We will see how it fares in the early morning. They unanimously passed a evidence past the suspect is worth 2 trillion. It will go to the house before being sent to the president s desk. For america and the president it cannot come soon enough. I encourage the house to pass this legislation and send the bill to my desk for signature without delay. I will sign it immediately. We will have a signing, it will be great signing and great day for the American Worker<\/a> and american families. Joe griffith is a Research Fellow<\/a> at their its foundation and the biggest financial stimulus package the us has ever seen. What do you love about it . Strong word. There are pieces trace what do you like about it . There are a few parts that will be a benefit to the public. One of these is allowing businesses to take losses for this quarter and next quarter and all those losses back to get a tax refund, that is a positive but these other components im troubled by including the unemployment component. At the Heritage Foundation<\/a> we have been advocating to give employers tax credit to pay out wages to employees that would otherwise be laid off. We think that is very important that this is something else. It went ahead and through the Unemployment Insurance<\/a> program is going to allow people who become unemployed to take nearly 100 of their prior salary by way of unemployment benefits. We think this will nudge people away from the workforce into the unemployment line because it allows him to stay on for several months, we want people to stay with her employer even if they are not working and that way, they have the job waiting for them. Trace you said this bill needs to be temporary and targeted. Did you achieve that portion . There are portions that are temporary and targeted. When we talk about helping people who are unemployed, Small Businesses<\/a>, that gets loans to businesses, payroll, utilities and mortgage, the temporary target at the end of the year but then you have other components that funnel hundreds of billions of dollars to special interests and special sectors such as airlines and Airline Cargo<\/a> that end of being handouts to these companies, that is not right and that is certainly not targeted. Trace i want to play you Steve Mnuchins<\/a> comment about this. Let me say i would like to thank Mitch Mcconnell<\/a> for his leadership and Chuck Schumer<\/a> for the bipartisan support. We had on this bill and the many senators both republican and democrat that worked tirelessly over the last five days on the task force. The president said i got to live in the lbj room for the last 5 days and we could not be more pleased with the unprecedented response from the senate to protect American Worker<\/a>s and american business. Republicans and democrats if we were not social distancing on this there would have been high 5s all around. That is not often a sign of what we want to see out of this, we talk about bipartisanship, this is another example, when we have bipartisanship in the form of unanimity we have gone awry. We are talking to trillion dollars, congress could have focused on helping out businesses are being forced to close by local government, we could been focused on helping them, helping those that are unemployed. Instead they tried to do both of those things but then also basically broke the bank with the bailout and sending 2,000 checks across the country to indiscriminately. That is in error. Trace i know there is a lot of pork in this bill. It is congress after all but do you think at some point in this kind of crisis that we have to just hold our nose and say okay, lets do it . That is the determination many senators made and perhaps they are right. We know in the house the house was saying we want even more. Listen to Governor Cuomo<\/a>, the governor of new york, he was saying this does not go far enough. You wants more money funneled over to the state, is to trillion dollars the best congress could do including bailing out many special interests . Perhaps in our state of Political Affairs<\/a> it is. Trace how long does it last . They will go down this road again . Next time they go down this road theres going to be a lot of people saying we need to open the economy. Now they say we are fine and we will shelter in place but next time they bring this up there will be a big opposition to say we need to open the country. We can help people out temporarily by borrowing money but the way to get the economy back on track is to allow people to go back to work and open up their businesses, that is what people want and need and i hope we can do that in a safe manner as soon as possible. Are you surprised with all this deal talk that the dow futures are down . Markets across the board down . That is a solid news situation, we saw the market rallied 2500 points in two days, the market is trying to figure out how to figure the impact for particular companies and industries incoming month and a half. We know there will be a sharp short contraction. Trace thank you for joining us.
