Opening up america again. The plan, if you want to call it that, is 18 pages. It may have some states effectively reopening in a month. Here is the thing, the president does not want states to ease into this. He thinks we can make a full on return to normal. Theres not going to be a new normal where somebody has been having for 25 years 158 seats at a restaurant that now hes got 30 or hes got 60 because that wouldnt work. Thats not normal. No, normal will be if he has the 158 or 68 seats and tha...

Reporting. The new plan comes as frustration builds with protests erupting in several states over the ongoing stayathome orders. Some Health Experts are urging caution in moving too quickly to try to get things back to normal. Were right now at flattening the curve but what we ultimately want to do before we consider any relaxation of any kind of social distancing measures would be to actually decrease the curve, see a steady decline in the curve to almost zero. Our nbc news team is here and rea...

For firsttime Unemployment Benefits just in the last week alone. You can see that all over the place. Relaxed certainty on how many people are getting through. If i add this to the millions of other people over the past three weeks that have been asking for help, we could be talking up to 23 Million People in the space of four weeks filing for firsttime benefits. We are looking potentially at an Unemployment Rate in the United States of 17 . Just imagine what were seeing. Just in the space of fo...

The failed test kits, the utter inability for weeks to ramp up testing to know where the virus was and how prevalent it was. The fact that they took way too long to begin to recommend social distancing. The fact that the president during this entire period as the virus was spreading would come out and do a series of song and dance routines to pump up the stock market as if that was the goal instead of taking action on the virus. Right. All those errors are what got us to this point. Right now, t...

The president of the United States, against governors from both sides of the aisle. The white house claims they have all the testing that they need to reopen their states. But ask these governors and the answer pretty much is, what are you talking about . To try to push this off to say that the governors have plenty of testing and they should just get to work on testing, somehow, we arent doing our job is just absolutely false. Thats just delusional, to be making statements like that. We have be...

I will talk now. In the next two hours, while were on the air, the death toll in the United States from coronavirus will likely hit 50,000 people. Thats more americans that died in the vietnam war, korean war. Almost 3200 americans were added to this death toll yesterday. Meanwhile, a milestone of different sorts today. In georgia, gyms, hair salons, nail salons, bowling alleys, massage and tattoo parlors, they can reopen their doors today. Theaters and restaurants can reopen on monday. The big ...

Been following this pandemic and how its affecting people since it started. Gadis going to stay with us throughout the hour. Hes at a grab and go center in Los Angeles County where the School District is handing out meals to families in need and today gadi, as i understand it, theyre going to be handing out their 10 millionth meal. What are you hearing from families in line there . Reporter 10 million meals, absolutely incredible out here. And this is the moment that everybody waits for. Right n...

22,000 americans have died and an increase of more than 3,000 over the weekend. Even with that number, nbc is reporting that the president has become more determined than ever to reopen our nation on may 1st. Thats just 18 days from now. But the question is, is that reali realistic, and, more importantly is it safe . Heres what some of the president s Top Health Experts have said. Were looking at may 1st. Obviously, we want that to happen as soon as possible. I cant predict at this point. As i s...

Backlash to his comments about injecting disinfectants on thursday. Instead hes using twitter to push the idea hes not holding briefings because members of the media only ask hostile questions. He continues to push the idea inu. S. Is testing more people than any other nation. The reality is were still lagging far behind where we need to be. Thats what Governor Cuomo of new york referred to as the dream earlier today. Testing is what we are compulsively obsessively focused on now, both diagnosti...

Thank you again for joining us. As the coronavirus pandemic rages around the world like a wildfire, the u. S. State of georgia, right here, is bucking the stay at home mandate by reopening businesses that invite close contact. The exact opposite of social distancing. This is a state that already has more than 22,000 confirmed cases of coronavirus and more than 800 deaths. Almost all of them since mid march and those numbers keep growing daily. Yet in the coming hours, barber shops, massage parlo...
