MSNBCW MSNBC Live April 5, 2020

Were looking at this seriously now because by the data, we would be either very near the apex or the apex could be a plateau and we could be on that plateau right now. Although today is one of the holiest day of the year for christians, palm sunday, churches across the world are empty. In vatican city where pope francis would lead mass outside in front of tens thouof thousan there as a quiet celebration in an empty. Queen e hliz an empty. Queen e hliabeth has delivered rare address on the coronavirus. Her speech was only the fourth time she has given such an unscheduled address since her reign began in 1952. While we have faced challenges before, this one is different. This time we join with all nations across the globe in a common endevour. Using the great advances of science and our instinctive compassion to heal. We will succeed and that success will belong to every one of us. We should take comfort that while we may have more still to endure, better days will return. Lets check in with a couple of our reporters who are braving the outside world to tell us whats happening. Msnbc anchor Lindsay Reiser is in a Field Hospital in the meadowlands in new jersey. Lindsay, the meadowlands has been turned into a Field Hospital like s we have seen in new york city. Tell me whats happening there. Usually this would be home to maybe a beer expo or a dance competition. Inside, there are 250 beds. Its a pop up hospital for nonCovid Patients opening up tomorrow. Really the energy would be no different other than the fact its extremely eerie. Every now and then you see some National Guard members walking through the doors and up those steps. We dont see any right now. Inside, 250 beds. Think about it like army cots. Thats what these beds look like. They are separated with white curtains for prooiivacy. They have temporary shower, a nursing station, a temporary pharmacy inside as well. We know the army corps of engineers and new Jersey State Police built this out in the last 7 to 8 days to meet the need. The ultimate question will be will this facility see Covid Patients. We saw what happened in new york city. The governor had to speak with President Trump about whether Javits Center could accept Covid Patients. They believe it will contain covid and nonnonCovid Patients. This is part of the states overall attempt. This is one of the hardest hit areas in the country. New jersey has another two medical facilities that will be opening up very soon. Governor phil murphy tweeted out they secured 500 more ventilators after close talks. They are beseeching any medical volunteers. They will be putting out an alert soon because they feel this surge in hospital visits is only beginning. What is the rate of infection in new jersey right noi and what are the lockdown orders in that state . Reporter there is a state wi wide shelter in place. Other communities are doing what they can. Mayors are banning together to have short rules. Some are banning Short Term Rentals because they dont want people flocking to the communities and ravage Grocery Stores and hospital there is. The state is being rigorous in testing. Theres about 45 Testing Facilities in the whole state. Its fourth behind states like new york and washington and how much testing they are doing per capi capita. You see a high rate of infection. You see right now they have about 375,000 case,500 cases. The numbers are rising quickly. Theyre doing a lot of testing here. Lindsay, thank you very much in new jersey. Unfortunately, our reporter, his camera shot has gone down. Well try to get to vaughn again. He is in arizona where theres a stay at home order. Golf courses are considered essential so those are still open. Well try to get to him later. The federal response of the Coronavirus Crisis continues to be a major story. Both of you, thank you so much. Dr. Patel. We heard the Surgeon General say this week is going to be really hard. Its going to be like 9 11 or pearl harbor. What does that look like for communities beyond new york . New yorkers know what its like. We have been dealing with it now for over a week. Tell everybody else. Yes, ive been in touch with fellow physicians across the country to try to just understand exactly what is happening. What every one is bracing for. Are those increasing numbers of cases and hospitalizations, including icu stays. You see in every community kind of a level of anxiety not just among Health Care Professionals but also police, essential businesses and every one because we know that while new york city was kind of our first look into whats happening across the country. Over not just the next week but the next several weeks well be seeing these surges. Were going to be seeing people who are desperate to get out of hospitals and people who will not leave the hospital because they will die from this. Dr. Patel, ive been talking to doctors and nurses and Health Care Professionals every single day and ive not heard from one person who told me they have enough personal protective equipment. What are you hearing and where do our hospitals stand with their ability to make sure the doctors and nurses, the ones treetsi ing treats them patients are kept safe . Absolutely. This is not hospitals trying to deny the materials to Health Care Workers and hoarding them or even this insinuation that these are sitting in the back of a hospital somewhere. The truth is that theres never anybody, including myself, who could have conceived we would have this many patients who require us to change out our protective gear each time we see a patient. Nobody, really, only usually in most cases are the icu staff able to do what they are need to do from a safety perspective. The rest of us are reusing equipment and trying to fashion in Emergency Rooms and other hospital floors around the country people are talking about and videos to share how we can use plastic film to do in intubations and plexi glass to do patient evaluations. When you hear the president say we have millions of masks and millions of supplies, its just not getting to the people that are actually using it. Robert, why is the president still saying that they are doing everything right . That everybody is getting what they need. He said he hasnt heard about problems with testing. We know people cannot easily get tests. I spoke to someone this morning who said they believe they are sick. They are in a hospital. They cant get a test. Hes talking about personal protective equipment and r respirators and claiming hospitals are hoarding them and asking for too much. What is the message being sent to the president . Is he being told that everybody is fine or is he just not listening to those who are saying its not . Based on my conversations in recent days with governors of both parties, with top officials in congress, the message coming out of this white house, in their eye, is confusion. My colleague and i wrote about this for the washington post. That President Trump at a moment when his entire presidency is being tested is sending confusing signals to many of these governors on the front lines. Thats why you see people like Governor Cuomo of new york and others turn to private interests, to other nations, in fact to try to get the ventilators and other supplies they need for their states. Theres a concern about the federal stockpile. What is actually in it in terms of ventilators and other supplies . Where can they get material and states also still feel like, just over this weekend, they are competing against each other and not really sure if the hot spots that are emerging whether its detroit or new orleans will have the materials they need in the coming weeks as they approach a new york type situation in their respective areas. You say its bipartisan. Just this morning the governor of arizona im sorry the governor of arkansas was saying that its literally a global junk jungle that were kpeecompeting now. Id like to see a better way. Governor jay inslee of washington was on and both are pleading with the president of the United States to take is control of the supply chain so the states get what they need so they dont have to compete on the private market. We heard the man in charge of making sure the materials that come into the United States are sent out. He defending the process of giving them to the private sector and allow the states to bid on them alongside the federal government. Is there any discussion about whether or not that process might be changed in the coming days . Theres a lot of debate inside the west wing. You have Peter Navarro who is coordinating the interactions with Corporate America as the administration leans into the defense production act to try to get companies to produce supplies but it doesnt formally invoke it in every sense. They are not forcing companies at every turn to produce certain supplies by a certain date. The president said he does not want to nationalize industry. You have also Jared Kushner who is a liasion working alongside navarro. A lot of ceos are saying they are confused about the chain of command if they want to help the federal government out. Its this theme of confusion as tragedy approaches in many places that continues to be the story on the political side. Its a reallynot get whting what they need. We have heard the mercy and comfort, both ships might be open to Covid Patients. Lets bring in vaughn. Were talking about governors and getting the message to the president that they want him to take charge of the supply chain and make sure that everybody is getting what they need so they dont have to compete with eeac other. What are you hearing in arizona . Reporter here in arizona, at least on this golf course here in mid town phoenix, you can see all is par for the course. This is the reality that is setting in. As i heard one man mention this morning just off the green said every morning he pitches. He drives and putts. Thats his routine. Theres this balance in which people are trying to come to grips with not only for their physical well being but their mental well being. The governor of arizona has deemed golfing here in the state of arizona one of those essential businesses that can stay open. Hair salon, barbershops closed at 5 00 p. M. On friday as that list of essential businesses continues to become more restricted here. Theres 64 deaths here in the state of arizona to date from covid19. Lindsay as mentioning early on in your show here, the fact that the meadowlands in new jersey has been set up by the army corps of engineers as one of those Field Hospitals. Thats taking place out here in the west. The army corps of engineers are looking to set up bigger facilities. In arizona, its not hit as many people as it has in other parts of the the country. Thats why you cant to see, including out here on the golf course, a lot of business as usual. I want to let you hear from one of those follow ggolfers. He said he is home from work. Hes taking part in zoom meetings. He said he is cloroxing every piece of grocery that come sboos the house and making the argument that golfing is okay and should stay on course. Take a listen. Were not riding carts. We are walking. Good exercise. In this game, you really are keeping far distance from each other. You nowhere near most people. Its helping fund the community in a certain way, i guess. Reporter about every 15 minutes folks are teeing off here. They are not driving a golf cart around. Theres also in many of these places no flags and theres also no rakes over in the sand traps. The folks contend they are trying their best and they believe this is one way in which they can stay mentally and physically healthy. If youre sanitizing all of your gear and not touching anything else, i think theres an argument to be made for that. What do you think of keeping Something Like a golf course open or having these more broadly the stay at home orders not being followed or not being issued for every state in the United States. The governor earlier today said washington may be plateauing. They hope its plateauing but that doesnt matter if somebody from another state comes in. Another state that was not on lockdown that this virus doesnt respect borders the way it didnt respect international borders. If we could stay sealed within our states or find way to do that, i would be all in favor of people going onto a golf course. The fact of the matter is the safest thing we can do right now is to stay at home. It should not be business as usual. Its hurting our economy but when the president says the cure is worse than the problem, when the problem is death, i think that the cure is actually the right thing for the problem. In this case, it is far better to stay at home. Mental health, i believe is critical to getting outside but keeping a safe distance and not touching objects that others touch is critical and i would strongly hope that arizonans follow that in next days. Dr. Patel, every one thank you very much and stay safe. The corona stimulus package, how the last bill is turning out for americans and what the next bill might look like. Stay with us. Machine bi mllight look like stay with us machin wondered. Could another come around the corner. Or could it play out differently . I wanted to help protect myself. My doctor recommended eliquis. Eliquis is proven to treat and help prevent another dvt or pe blood clot. Almost 98 of patients on eliquis didnt experience another. And eliquis has significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Eliquis is fdaapproved and has both. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling numbness or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planed medical or dental procedures. Whats around the corner could be your moment. Ask your doctor about eliquis. Introducing tide power pods with cat nat. I love how much i can stuff into these machines. But that is such a large load, dont the stains sneak through . Please.

Works to implement the historic 2 trillion Coronavirus Relief plan, democrats in washington are already pushing for another package to add to the federal response. In a letter to her colleagues last night, House Speaker nan sip nancy pelosi said she aiming to bring a second act of the cares plan by tend of this month. It must go further in assisting Small Businesses, including farmers. Extending and strengthening Unemployment Benefits and giving family additional direct payments. She also announced the formation of a new select committee to oversee all aspects of the Trump Administrations response to the pandemic. That includes the spending of the 2 trillion relief fund. Thats a very big number to wrap your head around. The most immediate number is the 1200 check that supposed to act as a lifeline for those living paycheck to paycheck. Thats one piece of a giant economic bail out. Getting what and when, lets bring in heather long. Its always great to see you. Thanks for joining us. Nancy pelosi wants another bill. Can we first start with the one thats already passed. When can people expect to see that 1200 check in their Bank Accounts . Theres a lot of hope it could start rolling out as soon as april 9th. Who will get it first . Its people who have their direct deposit information already on file with the government, with the irs. If you dont have that information already on file, the irs is setting up a website where youll be able to input your Bank Information or you can wait for a check to come in the mail. Of course, if youre going to wait for the check in the mail that will take a while. That may not roll out until end of april or may or even later as the Government
