S. Strategy to tackle the pandemic another long press briefing in the rose garden today from the president rob he says that the u. S. Has tested more than a 1000000 people. Yes thats correct and of we dont we dont have any real way to verify that because those numbers come out of the White House Task force so. They are basically on the. Word of the president now. The president s making that claim was talking about sheer numbers the words only the actual number he said a 1000000 but when every reporter pointed out that that is much Lower Per Capita than other countries like germany or south korea the president got angry and sent that the reporter and said that the report of assessing a nasty question so the information about test kits is also somewhat at odds with what u. S. Governors are saying just yesterday governor j. B. Pritzker of the state of illinois held a press conference and he said the white house has promised us millions of test kits and they are just not here just days ago right the president s focus seemed to be on preserving the economy now he appears to have done 180 degrees again hes focusing on saving lives. Well there is what he said and he also at the same time repeated his desire to reopen the economy as quickly as he is as it is possible that the april 12th date the Easter Holiday that the president talked about earlier is now clearly in the an inoperative date they have used to say during the Nixon Administration speaking of the economy the u.

Jobs and 32 percent unemployment that is would be at an overwhelming number of people were much worse then during the Great Recession earlier in this century no trouble said that when the pandemic eps and disappears the u. S. Economy will be back bigger than ever we had the greatest economy in the world with the greatest economy in the history of our country and i had to go from doing a great job for 3 years to shutting it down but you know what were going to build it up and were going to build it up rapidly and i think in the end will be stronger for it we learned a lot the governor of florida says that he doesnt want a cruise ship with coronavirus patients on board to dock that 4 people have died and dozens a sick aboard the cruise line up its heading towards florida after passing through the panama canal and just showing no symptoms were removed and taken to zaandam sister ship the rotterdam lets go live out of miami and is there a saudi gallagher joins us tell us more and about the plight of these cruise ship passengers. You know where theyve been on this cruise ship since the beginning of the month they began in boy miseries around to chile got stuck in panama the pun ammonium authorities eventually let them pass through the canal and theyre about 3 days away from here in florida and the governor gave a press conference this morning were understand has basically giving that crew a hard no to docking anywhere in this state now there are about 200 people who are showing signs of influenza are on board there for people as you said have died they were all elderly passengers one of them did test positive for covert 19 and they are supposed to be docking in the port of flow or the mayor of that city is saying that is absolutely unacceptable wrong the scientists are actually saying he doesnt want foreign nationals taking up hospital space that is for floridians or u. S. Citizens but there are in fact plenty of u. S. Citizens some from this area on board that vessel who are now in dire straits that the Cruise Line Company is saying please show some humanity and letters docs so we can take care of these people but that the clear message from the authorities here in florida is thanks but no thanks even though there are spaces in the hospitals here they could potentially line up the quarantine proposals or maneuvers that they need to have for these people but the mayor of florida as the mayor of Fort Lauderdale is now saying maybe the should continue up these coast and dock at a naval base so this is a dire situation for the people on board theres still about a 1000 people on board there 200 of whom are showing symptoms of this is an increasingly desperate situation and theyre still about 3 days away from reaching the shores here in florida because thats how long it takes to get from panama to here and they really just dont know where theyre going to go next to you know these cruise ships have really become a symbol of fear of coronaviruses heard around the world but a lot of people here in florida doctors among them are saying look this is a humanitarian crisis we need to take these people in especially if theyre u. S. Citizens and take care of them that in the state of florida is not happening. I was there as i began to go reporting live from home in miami new yorks Health System is getting a lifeline via the sea a u. S.
