Joining us for latest on the outbreak and possible treatments is cbs medical contributor dr. David agus. He joins us from los angeles. David, good morning. Good morning. Let me start with the idea of the drugs that we have heard about. Chloroquine, the antimalaria drug. Theres anecdotal evidence, for those of us who arent doctors, what does that mean . Remember, theres chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine, which is a safer version. Hydroxychloroquine was fda approved over the last 30 years for arthritis and malaria and autoimmune diseases. And there is real data that it works. Its not randomized, controlled trials, but individual patients, viral load has come down. The mechanism in the test tube seems to be similar. Because of that, doctors are using it across the country because we can write a prescription for it. We call it offlabel use. Youll see announced next week a National Data base following patients on these drugs and their response to the thing. We can collect data that dr. Fauci was referring to. But if youre writing prescriptions for those drugs right now, how do you know the dosage is right . Its a great question. Were using drug dosages that others have used both in asia and here. Ive probably written several dozen. I have several dozen patients who are on it. The biggest problem we face is in california now it takes about a week to get a test result back. And with these drugs, the earlier you treat, the better the outcome. So im many times treating before the result comes back because i want to get the best outcome for the patient. Doctor, as people are obviously concerned about drugs that may work, also concerned with testing. Where do we stand in this idea that so many people want to be able to get tested if they feel the need is there . Reporter were not close, the testing infrastructure. L. A. , fransan franciscos, there long, long lines. Were restricted in california to testing people who are symptomatic or who, you know, will make a clinical change, that the doctor will make a decision based on the result. It takes days to get a test result back. We now are having more tests. The problem is the infrastructure to run the test wasnt there, is trying to be built up. Doctor, on the shortages taking place right now, ventilators and masks. Heard from a nurse in icu said. She says shes been given one n95 mask, expected to use that all day long. Of course, doctors and nurses need to eat and drink during their shifts and put it in a paper bag and use it again the next day. How big a deal is the shortage of masks . How confident are you that we can get more . How confident are you that we can get more ventilators . Reporter all of those are awful. I went to the hospital and went by 20 cars with doctors sleeping in the cars. They didnt want to infect their family members so theyre not going home at night, theyre sleeping in their cars because they know theyre going to get infected and dont want to spread it to others. We dont have supplies on the froo front line. The ones who run the ventilators are starting to get the virus. If we have nobody to run the vent later ventilators it doesnt matter how many we have. Were losing the war. We need resources at the front lines. We need start to giving drugs to people on the front line who have been exposed. Its called postexposure prophylaxis, if you give a drug right after theyre exposed with hiv or influenza, you can block the virus. The hope is we can do the same thing so doctors and nurses and other Health Professionals on the front line arent going down. There certainly are people who are asymptomatic. How likely is it that they are also then giving the disease to other people and may never show any symptoms . Reporter its one of the biggest issues, people can spread the disease while asymptomatic. We dont know how long. Theres no test for infectiousness. The disease is spreading and unknowingly, someone could have it, go somewhere and spread it. Thats why social distancing, staying home in the state of california, were not leaving the house. And that is the way to stop it. You know, the interesting part is that it takes seven to ten days after implementation of these drastic measures to see the benefits. This happened midweek. The hope is toward the end of next week we start to see a significant decline in the number of cases. Im hopeful america is stepping up. We are all doing the right thing. And we will see the benefits, combine that with the drugs that were using, and i think were going to see a shift going from defense to offense against this virus. All right. Dr. David agus, thank you so much for your expertise. Appreciate it. Of course the Health Crisis has provoked a financial crisis. Wall street ended the week with another steep selloff on friday at the closes. The dow had lost more than 900 points. The s p 500 and nasdaq also fell sharply. That helped make last week the worst in u. S. Markets since 2008 with the dow losing 17 of its value. Thats just some of the economic fallout we are seeing right now, including massive layoffs and predictions of an unprecedented slowdown. Cbs news Senior Business analyst Jill Schlesinger is here to tell us more about what were facing and how you should handle it. Good morning. Reporter good morning. So the bear market is now down 30 which is about typical for a bear market right now. But obviously a crazy week on wall street. Do you feel like stlings settled down at things have settled down at all . I dont think so. Not yet. I think were about to see a lot more volatility. Heres whats going on if youre a trader and youre seeking guidance about whats happening in the economy, youre a bit flying blind. Until we get more data, these are sort of guesstimates. Let me tell you what economists are telling me. Theyre looking at the a recession that is probably already starting. Maybe in the middle of this quarter that were in the first quarter. If you look at the Second Quarter of this year, were looking at analysts who are saying we could have a drop of 25 , thats what Goldman Sachs says, 14 , jpmorgan chase. To put the numbers in perspective, we havent seen quarterly drops like that since the Great Depression. We are worse our worst quarter was the last quarter, down 8. 9 . The Economic Uncertainty is breeding the selloff. Until theres more certainty, i dont think its going to stop any time soon. Some of the staggering numbers weve seen with the economy screeching to a halt, as you put it, is the impact on jobs and record numbers of losses. I think the job loss numbers we are going to see a lot more coming up. We have one data point that was released thursday. Thats weekly jobless claims. They spiked by 33 from the previous week. When we get the next weeks results, which will be next thursday, we are likely to see a million, maybe two jobless claims applications. Wen people look at the Unemployment Rate overall, remember we came into this period at a 50year low of 3. 5 . Its likely to spike up to 6 to 8 which is pretty hefty. And i know its agonizing for those who are losing their jobs. It may be more than that. But the good news is is that most of the economists who have dark predictions for the first half of the year, they do believe that sometime in the middle of the summer, the economy will pick up. And those folks will go back to work. In part because banks are structurally in a better place than they were 12 years ago. In 2008 the government spent 700 million in a bailout. What do you think the government should be using the 1 trillionplus for to help people today and next month . The government has two different responses. We have the Federal Reserve thats pulled out the break the glass playbook from 2008 and 200
