Federal reserve launching even more emergency measures. This as the president vows the u. S. Will achieve, quote, total victory over the coronavirus, and says the new trillion dollar stimulus with 500 billion in cash headed to individuals, he thinks it may not be enough. We have news coming up on that. We have also got medical supply shortages hitting hospitals as across the country. Tonight, positive news on drug results to battle the outbreak. President trump today pushing to fast track a dom mon antimalaria drug, chloroquine saying it has shown encouraging results against the coronavirus. Watch this. A drug called chloroquine, and some people would add to it hydroxychloroquine, so chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine. This is a common malaria drug. It is known as a malaria drug and its been around for a long time and it is very powerful but this has been used in different forms, very powerful drug in different forms and its shown very encouraging, very, very encouraging early results. And were going to be able to make that drug available almost immediately. Liz the dow was swinging today. It swung 1200 points t did finish the day up 188. The other indices ended the day in the green. It is the worst mon though since 1987 but china is claiming an optimistic outlook. No new locally transmitted cases. Critics say china did drop an iron curtain on its outbreak earlier this year, if china did tell the world faster the cases would have been cut around the world dramatically. China, watch this. Also trying to secure exclusive patent on gileads anticoronavirus drug remdesivir before the world really knew about its outbreak. We have that story too. Here in the u. S. The government is bracing for a potential 18month battle and a battle to calm americans, expected rammed up in testing will show a steady spike higher in cases. That is why the u. S. Reported cases did soar more than 40 in just 24 hours. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo trying to calm new york as new york cases rise to about 4160. That is about 40 of the countrys entire total. Watch this. Clear communication consistent communication, because misinformation, emotion, fear, panic, is truly more dangerous than the virus at this position in my opinion. Liz okay. Get right to fox news Congressional Correspondent chad pergram in d. C. Chad . Reporter good evening, liz, in the past 45, 50 minutes, Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell released a 247page bill this is the phase three of the Coronavirus Response from capitol hill here. One key provision in this bill is that they would allocate a direct payment of up to 1200 for most taxpayers, if you make up to 75,000 a year, it would start to taper off a little bit up to 95,000. The Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell says they need to get this bill through, but so far this is just a republican authored bill. Listen. We need to have the american peoples backs. This legislation is a significant next step and the senate is not going anywhere, the senate is not going anywhere until we take action. Reporter but there are some gop conter nation about the direct payments both in the administration and republicans on capitol hill. South carolina senator lindsey graham, says the economy is growth padlocked. You cant stimulate something that is padlocked. Mcconnell needs democrat buyin. Two republican senators are quarantined. Cory gardner and rick scott. It comes down to the votes. They have to engage the Senate Democratic leader chuck schumer. Many work part time, gig workers, many other reasons are not covered by unemployment reasons or new employment insurance must cover them all. Second, the payments must be full. The payments should equal, or come as close to equaling as possible the salaries they got. Reporter schumer says there was no democratic input in this original bill. That is going to start tomorrow. Schumer believes there are bailouts in this piece of legislation. They will have to negotiate there, also with House Speaker nancy pelosi. The house of remembers is not here right now theyre waiting to come back once the Senate Passes something. The House Majority leader steny hoyer sent a member to all house members today because theyre concerned about contamination on the house floor. There are two house members, Mario Diazbalart of florida, a republican, around ben mcadams, a democrat from utah who have contracted coronavirus and we have several other members who are quarantined including minority whip Steve Scalise this is what steny hoyer said, quote, the house will adjust our voting procedures in order to follow the cdcs recommendations. Well discuss all options. Theyre talking about bringing members into the House Chamber in groups of 10 or 15. None of that will probably happen until next week, liz. Liz chad, great to see you. The market ended up 188 points. Oil popped higher. Were on track for probably the worst week since 2008. The worst month since 1987. That is where were at. All indices below of 200day moving averages. The dow is swinging back and forth about 1200 points. Up 188. Get to it ohio governor, michael dewine. Thanks for joining us. Great to see you. Before we get what is going on, when will ohio hold its democratic primary . It is democrat and republican primary. It is not just president ial. It is local. That is set for the beginning of june. Unless the legislature comes in and changes that. What is important people will have the opportunity to vote by absentee ballot for an extended period of time. We had a situation where we were making people make choices over their health versus their constitutional right. It made no sense. Liz lets move on to what is going on in washington. Unprecedented government stimulus. Now dwarfs the bailouts under president obama and george w. Bush during the financial crisis. Your take on whats going on in washington . Well, quite honest with you, im very focused what were doing here in ohio. Were very, very focused. Im hearing some of the things youre carrying and other news Media Outlets are carrying but look, this is a bipartisan issue. I talked to our two senators. I talked to our members, congressional delegation. Im glad theyre looking forward, making things happen. What we would like, as far as any kind of money coming back to the states, as much flexability as humanly possible. Were here. Were dealing with the problems. We want to make those decisions. The Trump Administration has been very good, giving us waivers, were very happy with that particularly in the area of food, school lunch programs. School breakfast programs. Liz we have positive news on the drugs to fight the virus. President fast tracking malaria drug, chloroquine. It has seizures. Japan has a drug that is promising. It helped clear virus in about a week. Doesnt work in severe cases. Australia are moving on aids and malaria drug cork tail, reportedly works in a lab test. I want to move on, i want to hear what is going on with the little guy in ohio, what theyre feeling. Because when we see markets whipsawed back and forth like this this, is dash for cash. People are selling stocks and u. S. Treasurys to get cash. Governor, were finding what is causing chaos in markets not just this virus, it is hedge funds who leveraged up with a ton of debt. Doubledigit growth in debt versus holdings to amplify, boost their returns. Now the virus hits, theyre deleveraging. They are running to get cash faster than the 2018 financial crisis, sir. When you hear, well play bill ackman, ceo after hedge fund. When you hear what he says, what he said basically, was, that were going to hell. He have said were going to get a pushback on that from msnbcs stephanie rule on that. Little guy in ohio, when they hear talk like this, this creates panic . Listen to stephanie ruhle. He caused the market to puke and caused the Circuit Breakers to trigger. So it is taking advantage of the fact that cable news puts him on television, really hardworking cable news reporters, who are trying to get Smart Business leaders on tv, to explain the real picture, maybe urge the white house to make really good choices but what so many people wondering tonight, why bill ackman or has right idea, or good intentions put on ridiculous show and cause such damage to already panicked market. Liz by the way bill ackman was wrong way on valiant, herbalife, other companies, jcpenney. He is both short and long. What was reaction to that story . Look, we, ohio citizens have to focus on saving their lives and what they have to focus on is separation and keeping apart from other ohio citizens that is the message every single day. Liz theyre seeing their 401 k s get torched. That is my point. And Stock Holdings and Bank Accounts like i fully understand your point, im telling you im dealing with a crisis with people trying to save their lives. This is all fast nating. It is all interesting. I understand your point but were focused in a life and death battle here. Liz what are you guys doing . Were seeing new jersey. Were seeing theyre doing curfews. See nag the bay area, california, there is a lockdown there, what are you guys doing toe stop to stop the outbreak there . We closed schools. We did that sometime ago. We shut down restaurants. We shut down bars. Weve gone down to 50 person, can only 50 people together at a time. Weve done everything we can to get people to basically go home, stay home. You know only essential industries are really rocking and rolling now. That has got to feed people. We have to take care of people. Those things are still going. Look, ohio economy is good. Well come out of this. This country will come out of it. Well be okay, but were going through a long winter before the spring comes. Liz i hear you. Governor. Well stay on the ohio story. Please stay safe. Were going to be watching what you guys are doing out there in ohio. Good to have you on, governor. Thank you so much for joining us. Appreciate it. Appreciate it. Liz next up, the White House Coronavirus task force today trying to calm americans, saying you are going to see cases spike in the next few days because of way more testing.

With us on the phone, chairman of medicine at st. Joseph university. Dr. Robert lahita. Thanks for joining us. Thank you, liz. Elizabeth well see number of cases spike in next two days, thats what the white house says. Big backlog of tests getting pushed through right now. Potentially up to 10,000 tested every day. The u. S. Was being criticized slow at start of testing. Now theyre doing it. Your take what is going on, sir . Were seeing up tick, were seeing an uptick in cases for sure. Just today i saw another three cases through the emergency room. Remind you that we dont admit everybody that comes in thinking they have covid19. We try to send people home if theyre stable, they dont have problems breathing, just fever an a cough, we try to send them out but definitely increased numbers are coming in. This is our big concern, that were going to get so many Going Forward that were going to have a problem with our icu beds and of course stamping. Stamping is always a big problem. Im happy to happy number of tests are going up. It means mortality is going down and test more people and find them to be positive. Elizabeth your take on the vaccine, drugs moving forward, your take on color chloroquine and japans vaage and australia cocktail. They seem to be effective . Theyre very effective. I had a lot of experience with hydroxychloroquine. These drugs are very good. The antimalarials. They treat connective tissues such as lupus and two wellknown conditions to a lot of people that have them. We used these drugs. Theyre very, very safe. Particularly hydroxychloroquine which the president mentioned today. Hydroxychloroquine is very inexpense system. I dont know how long that will last. You can get it while it is available. You need a doctors prescription for it and what it does, i think it affects the cells ability to bring the virus in. It sort of blocks in the lungs at the surface of the lungs alveolis, the little sack where the oxygen is exchanged, it solidifies that prevents the virus being engulfed or bought into the cell when it obviously kills when it infects the cell of the lungs. We have a major, major finding there. With regard to the other drugs that you mentioned, the japanese drug, avagen, today i had a delivery of remdesivir, which is just for two patients that are intubated in the intensive care unit and these patients are dreadfully sick and this drug is what we call an antiviral, it works on the virus itself. That is coming from japan. Elizabeth really interesting. Theyre experimental though. It is not for everybody. Elizabeth yeah. Very tough to get, very hard to get. Elizabeth dr. Lahita, thank you for what is going on inside hospitals with the drugs coming into play. Thanks for having you on, thanks for joining news thank you for having me on. Elizabeth Bernie Sanders goes nuclear on a reporter. Bernie sanders got really mad. We have the tape. Well show it to you next. Feedback that helps you drive safer. And that can lower your cost now that you know the truth. Are you in good hands . Do you recall, not long ago we would walk on the sidewalk all around the wind blows we would only hold on to let go blow a kiss into the sun we need someone to lean on blow a kiss into the sun all we needed somebody to lean on all we need is someone to lean on beyond the routine checkups.

Because beyond technology. There is human ingenuity. Every day, comcast business is helping businesses go beyond the expected. To do the extraordinary. Take your business beyond. Elizabeth welcome back to the evening edit. I would like to bring in conservative come men state tore kristin commentate, kristin tate. How are you holding up . Pretty well. Im up here in the New Hampshire area. Weve seen a lot of businesses close. My stepmother owns restaurants in boston. She has been ordered to close her businesses. I like so many other people seen a lot of goodwill during this time. Business owners are still paying employees even though theyre shut down. Heartwarming for people to come together. I hope you and your viewers are staying safe as well. Elizabeth move on to what is going on in the 2020 democrat race. Bernie sanders back in vermont, reassesses after losing to joe biden by double digits in florida, arizona and illinois. Your thoughts on this . In a Perfect World for joe biden Bernie Sanders would gracefully step down and endorse him but, liz, i just dont think that is going to happen. Bernie sanders and his support earns, they are still angry at the dnc for what happened back in 2016. Bernie believes that that race was stolen from him. For good reason. Bierne bernie has been treated unfairly every step of the way. In 2016 and this time around there is a real fracture in the Democratic Party this would really believe ultimately causes joe biden to lose in november because he is going to have to appeal to the moderates and to the progressives but right now, Bernie Sanders and his supporters are not warming to joe biden. Elizabeth interesting. Bernie sanders on edge. He cursed out a cnn reporter. Lets watch this. What is the time frame . Im dealing with a [bleep], global crisis. You know, were dealing with this and youre asking me these questions. Youre running for president. Right now im running, right now im trying to do my best to make sure we dont have an economic melt down and people dont die. Is that enough for you . Elizabeth the question was, basically when are you going to stop your campaign . Then that happened. Your reaction . Bernie sanders is always so angry but you know what, liz . He is a fighter and i think that is why a lot of his supporters really like him. Joe biden, sleepy joe has no energy. He doesnt have that fighting spirit the candidate is going to need to take on donald trump in november. Even though bernie is so angry and becoming unhinged, at least he has a little bit of fight in him. That is more than joe biden. Elizabeth joe biden is now moving to general Election Campaign mode. As you noted he is moving to try to heal that split with the bernie supporters because they gave the president the march begin of victory in battleground states, one out of eight be
