Pres. Trump thank you very much. Thank you. Very comfortable here. A lot of room. And we appreciate you being here. Yesterday i announced we would be extending our social distance guidelines through the end of april. This is based on modeling that shows the peak in fatalities will not arrive for another two weeks. The same modeling also shows that by very vigorously following these guidelines, we can save more than one million american lives. Think of that. One million american lives. Our future is in our own hands, and the choices and sacrifices we make will determine the fate of this virus and really the fate of our victory. We will have a great victory. We have no other choice. Every one of us has a role to play in winning this war. Every citizen, family, and business can make the difference in stopping the virus. This is our shared patriotic duty. Challenging times are ahead for the next 30 days. This is a very vital 30 days. We are sort of putting it all on the line, this 30 days. So important because we have to get back. But the more we dedicate ourselves today, the more quickly we will emerge on the other side of the crisis. And that is the time we are waiting for. The more we commit ourselves now, the sooner we can win the the fight and return to our lives. And they will be great lives. Maybe better than ever. Today we reached a historic milestone in our war against the coronavirus. Over one million americans have now been tested. More than any other country by far. Not even close. And tested accurately. And i think what i would like to do is ask secretary azar, who has done a fantastic job, to come up and see a few words about the fact that we reached substantially now more than one million tests, please. Thank you, alex. Sec. Azar thank you, mr. President , for your leadership in marshaling all the resources that we have for this unprecedented testing effort. Thank you, mr. Vice president , for leading a whole of economy approach to testing. As the president mentioned today, the United States hit more than one million samples tested. A number that no other country has reached. We are now testing nearly 100,000 samples a day. Also a level that no other country has reached. I want to thank every partner that has been involved in this effort. That includes all the men and women of the fda and cdc, including director bradfield and director redfield and commissioner hahn. Together, the fda and cdc have balanced the need for testing on an aggressive scale with the scientific rigor that americans expect. Working with our testing coordinator, they have now truly unleashed the ingenuity of the private sector and our state and local leaders, the centerpieces of americas historic approach to testing. I want to thank the state and local leaders who used their on the Ground Resources and knowledge to lead testing and make it much more easily accessible to the americans who need it. I am also grateful to fema with whom we are working with state and local partners to get what they need. I want to thank cms, where the administrator has Given Health Care providers unprecedented flexibility that has ensured the tests will be paid for. Finally, we would not be where we are today without the Many American companies, entrepreneurs, and scientists who have worked day and night to develop as of today 20 different emergency testing options. With the fda responding to requests for authorization typically within 24 hours, the number of options is growing nearly every day. The fda has also opened up new options for using the available tests like self swabbing and new options. I want to thank the fda and other components of hhs for incredibly rapid action on other tools we need. This weekend, we worked to secure 30 million tablets and one million tablets from bayer of hydroxychloroquine, which are potential covid19 treatments. We authorized new decontamination machines which can each sterilize thousands of essential n95 masks for reuse every day. Thank you to the president and everyone who has played a part in getting us to where we are today. Pres. Trump i would like to ask dr. Hahn to come up, fda, because we have some really good stuff. First of all, the numbers have been incredible on testing. But in the days ahead, we are going to go even faster. And we have something from abbott labs, which is right here, and that is a fiveminute test. Highly accurate. I may be can show that as we listen to our fda commissioner, the job he has done, and the approval process. We talked about the chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine just now. I thought i would mention it but alex has already done that. We tested that with 1,100 people in new york. It was only the fast approval of the fda that allowed us to do that. It was a really rapid approval. Doctor, please say a few words. This is the first one on the line of the fiveminute tests. Dr. Hahn thank you, mr. President , for your leadership. Thank you, mr. Vice president , for your leadership on the task force. I am very proud of fda staffs work in the last few months to expedite the availability of testing in this country. I am also incredibly appreciative of private industrys ingenuity and willingness to work with as quickly to develop and distribute the tests. We have had a substantial addition to testing with the authorization of pointofcare test, especially the abbott pointofcare test, which the president has pulled out of the box. A pointofcare test is a test that gives you a result where you are getting care. This is truly a patient centered approach. Whether it is the doctors office, a hospital, emergency room, urgent care center, or a driveby testing site. Just like tests for flu or strep, you can get an answer within minutes of having the test done. Now with the testing approved for abbott and others, these are available around the country. They are planning to scale up the number of tests that can be put out throughout the next month. Patients can get answers within as little as 15 minutes. And an appropriate plan of treatment can be given. The fda is working quickly with abbott for other testing approaches. Normally they take months to develop. I was on the phone today with the abbott ceo. He told me this is normally a nine to 12 month approach. They did this in collaboration with fda and u. S. Government within weeks. Abbott has shared they will be delivering these tests tomorrow and will be ramping up. Just have to emphasize one thing. The most innovative and Safe Products come from the private sector in partnership with government, taking an all hands on deck approach just like in this case. The other point, abbott and fda Work Together to make sure we had a safe, reliable, and accurate test the market. Thank you. Pres. Trump great job. Really great job. Thank you, steve. So the Pharmaceutical Company santos has been working with us very closely. And as alex mentioned a little bit, 30 million doses of hydroxychloroquine to the United States government has been given. Bayer has donated one million doses of the chloroquine, which will soon be distributed to states and state Health Officials around the country. Another Pharmaceutical Company is also donating 6 million doses of hydroxychloroquine to u. S. Hospitals. 6 million doses. So the private sector as you say, steve, it has been amazing what has happened. Really amazing. We will introduce you to some of the greatest Business Executives in the world today no matter where you go. They will say a little bit about what they are doing. And then we have so many more. The fda has also authorized the n95 respiration mask sterilization kits. It is an incredible thing. I have been asking, why are we throwing the masks away . You look at some of the masks and they are significant pieces of equipment. How come you are throwing them away . Why arent they using sterilization techniques . I got a call from mike dewine, the governor of ohio, and he is a tremendous guy, tremendous governor. He says we have a company and they have a hard time getting approval from the fda. I called up dr. Hahn and within a short period of time, they got it approved. I want to thank mike and steve. Each machine can disinfect 120,000 masks per day. Think of that. Each machine can disinfect 120,000 masks per day. It will be like a new one and it can go up to 20 times for each mask, so each mask can go through this process 20 times. They have two in ohio, one in new york, and one will soon be shipped to seattle, washington. And also to washington, d. C. That will make a tremendous difference on the masks. This morning, i spoke to our nations governors to help each state get the medical supplies they need. Yesterday, Vice President mike pence asked our nations hospitals to begin reporting total bed capacity, icu bed capacity, ventilator capacity, and vital medical supply levels on a daily basis. Mike, thank you for the great job. Thank you very much. In new york, with the 2,900 bed hospital under construction which is now completed, they completed it in three days. You might say three and a half days. At the javits center, it will be completed today. It will be. When you look, i think we will be adding some more beds, which will be completed today. And we have opened up. There goes our box and my hair is blowing around. And it is mine. The one thing you cannot get away with. If it is not yours, you have a problem if you are president. Nearly 3000 medical beds will become operational. The u. S. Navy ships comfort also arrived today, equipped with 12 operating rooms and 1000 hospital beds. Work has begun on additional temporary hospital sites, including a 600 bed capacity nursing home facility in brooklyn and numerous floors of a highrise building on wall street. So it has been Pretty Amazing what they have done. The army corps of engineers, what they have done, they just completed, think of it, a 2,900 bed hospital in new york in just about three days, maybe four days. The whole city is talking about it. On top of that, we floated in a great ship, which is going to be 1000 rooms, which is being used for patients outside of what we are focused on. That will free up a lot of rooms for what we are focused on. So it has been great. The army corps of engineers has awarded contracts for the construction of alternate care facilities also at the State University of stony brook, State University of old westbury, and the Westchester Community center. We are sending 60 ambulances to new york city today. We have a total of 60. We are getting some additional ones. With up to 190 more to follow at different locations. To date, fema has obligated more than 1. 3 billion in federal support to the state of new york. So we are spending a lot of money in new york. It is a hotbed. There is no question about it. We are spending a lot of time and effort in new york, new jersey. I spoke with Governor Cuomo a lot. I spoke with governor murphy a lot in new jersey. And we are really getting the job done. People are very impressed. I am very impressed by the people in fema, the army corps of engineers because of what they have done. I have never seen anybody do anything like it. In addition to the 8100 ventilators that we have already delivered, over the next 48 hours, we are delivering more than 1000. 400 ventilators are going to michigan very shortly. 300 going to new jersey. 150 ventilators to illinois. 150 to louisiana. 50 to connecticut. Fema and hhs already delivered 11. 6 million n95 respirators, 26 million surgical masks, 4. 4 million surgical gowns, and 2. 2 22 million gloves. I dont know if you saw it come over the wire, but ford Just Announced a little while ago that they will produce along with General Electric health care 50,000 ventilators, and they will be doing it in less than 100 days. On top of that, we have other companies that are doing ventilators, including general motors. But we have nine other companies doing ventilators. As we outpace what we need, we will be sending them to italy. We will be sending them to france. We will be sending them to spain, where they have tremendous problems. And other countries as we can. But the fact that we are doing so many so quickly is a tribute to our great companies. More than 14,000 National Guard members have been activated and can help supplement state and local efforts to distribute personal protective equipment. We are sending a lot. We have plane loads coming in. We have 51 loads from various locations all around the world. They are landing. We had the first big cargo plane landed this morning. And we are getting it from all over the world. We are also sending things we dont need to other parts. I just spoke to the Prime Minister of italy, and we have additional capacity. We have additional product that we dont need. We will be sending approximately 100 million worth of things, of surgical and medical and hospital things to italy. Guiseppi was very happy. I will tell you that. They are having a hard time. Joining us this afternoon are ceos of the Great American companies that are fulfilling their patriotic duty by producing or donating medical equipment to help meet our most urgent needs.
