Siriano. Where are you zach posen . Where are the other designers in you know, im not calling anybody out. But you know what im saying. You did just call them out by the way. Look. I think what what this is reminding all of us, and i think one of the things that took you and i by surprise. And we say this to people all the time, don and i. You know, one of the regrets right now is im not seeing don as often as i normally would. People see us together all the time and they say, oh, youre really friends. We all have to care about one another. I love don lemon. He is the family i choose. And there is a lot of love that goes into doing the job. Because its not easy right now. Its scary for us, too. We got families and were traveling around but the commitment is real and thats why people watch your show because the fact that you care comes pouring out everything about you. Everything what you see on tv is same thing in person. Chris and i so youll see youll see chris and i, well disagree on camera. Youll see governor dkasich, people think its personal, its not. Chris and i fight the same way in person and well say, all right, what do you want to do . You want to go like take a walk on main street . What do you want to do . The same thing, after the show, the governor will call me. Well have it out. The governor called me, i was walking my dogs and then its over. Thats how real people do it. Its not fake. Thats how real people, who actually respect each other, relate. And were living through Something Real right now and its making everybody remember that you got to be real. You got to tell the truth. And you got to be honest. You saw how im keeping in touch with my friends. I have this app, right, thats called house party where everybody just sort of dials in and, you know, there was somebody on there having dinner. Very cool. Yeah. I dont have that many friends. But if i did, i would use it. Can i just show you real quick . I know this is a little bit about family. Know that your mom was staying with you and that fauci and your brother took her away. But i show you how i got b bamboozle talked about apparently, i have a new member of my family. Right in the middle there, thats gus. Gus was supposed to be a foster. Southampt southampton Animal Shelter called and said were having trouble adopting. So some shelters are like everybodys coming in. They want to spend time. They want to get animals because theyre with their families and theyre nesting. And then other places are being shut down and theyre not theyre hurting. So we went in. We said, okay, great, well foster the dog until this is over. And then next thing i know, i look on social media and tim is like new member of our family. Gus. And im like, tim, its a foster. So i guess its a new member. Ive been calling him angelina. You know what that means. Sure i got it. But hes looking like he doesnt like you thatch. Maybe im misreading it. Hes looking like he what .

This is cnn tonight. Im don lemon. Heres what we are doing right now at this moment. Hope you are taking care of your family as well and hope you enjoyed that conversation and tell your loved ones how much you love them. I know its tough but well get through this. Were waiting for a vote tonight on the largest stimulus bill in u. S. History. 2 trillion of coronavirus relief. 2 trillion. And we are expecting two votes. One on amendment by republicans who take issue with additional Unemployment Benefits in the stimulus bill that will fail after that. Okay . Senators will vote on final passage of the bill. The votes will take 30 minutes each to allow for social distancing. And then were going to bring you those votes when they happen so make sure you stay tuned because were going to bring all of that to you as it happens and it should happen within the hours were on the air live here. Then our breaking news now. The new numbers as the coronavirus spreads. There are more than 65,200 cases tonight. And that means 65,200 people and many more families involved than that tonight. The deadliest day of the virus in this country. More than 220 deaths reported just today. And hospitals are in dire straits. At new york city Bellevue Hospital, listen to these stories. A makeshift morgue is being set up. Thats Bellevue Hospital in new york. 13 people dead in 24 hours at another hospital in queens, new york. The Washington Post is reporting Northwestern Memorial Hospital in chicago, they are discussing a universal donotresuscitate policy for infected patients. A universal dnr. What doctor at new york city and new york City Hospital who wanted to be anonymous for fear that he could lose his job telling cnn all hell broke loose when his hospital got its first coronavirus patients two weeks ago. Not enough ventilators. Not enough beds for the critically ill people. The new york javits center, the convention center, not far from where i am sitting right now, being turned into a thousandbed hospital. The president of new yorks n Nurses Association saying they dont have the personal protective equipment they need. We are terrified. Everybody is terrified. We feel an obligation to take care of our patients. Everybody does. But we dont want to become sick. And we also dont want to become carriers. Over 175 Million People under stayathome orders across this country. And that number is growing. Theres absolutely no evidence that america will be back to business as usual by easter, despite the president s claim tonight that its time. Its time. They want people want to get back to work. So the president made the pandemic about himself today. Falsely suggesting that his perceived political enemies are just trying to defeat him in november. Lawmakers and economists on both sides of the aisle have said that reopening the country by easter is not a good idea. What is that plan based on . Just so you understand. Are you ready . I think there are certain people that would like it not to open so quickly. I think there are certain people that would like it to do financially poorly because they think that would be very good as far as defeating me at the polls. That, as congress is pushing late into the night to tonight to try to get the 2 trillion stimulus bill passed. 500 billion in loans to businesses, states, and municipalities. An extra 600 a week, excuse me, in Unemployment Benefits for four months. And sending checks directly to americans. 1,200 for individual adults and 500 per child, though thats phased out for individuals with adjusted gross incomes of more than 75,000. And experts say it could take at least until may to get those checks. Thats a long time away when youre not you dont have any money coming in. People who have been living paycheck to paycheck may not be able to wait that long. That bill amounts to a bridge loan to tie over the economy for a few months. And the House Speaker nancy pelosi is saying were going to need another massive relief package. The fact is, the coronavirus is not under control. It is spreading. And blind optimism wont stop it. Calling for this country to be back in business by easter is dangerous. Its putting Americans Health at risk and putting the economy at risk of repeated shutdowns that would create chaos and confusion. Exactly when thats most dangerous. Doctors and researchers are desperate desperately working to find new ways to stop this virus. To heal those who are already sick. But theres at least one thing we know that we can do to help. One thing that can help. And we have seen it. And that is social distancing. Staying at home. It is the best weapon we have so far to slow this deadly virus. Your life, your loved ones lives, could depend on it. So lets we have been firm with them. They need better spacing in stores. And have to have a lot more protection for their employees as wal so its not spread. In1 told you about chicago. Theyve got that, you know, do not resuscitate theyre working on uoy ly doing that. And right now, you know, one new york City Hospital setting up makeshift morgues in tents outside for coronavirus deaths. See and has the seriousness of this crisis sett in for folks in yo i think everybodys watching whats going on across the world, don. New yorkqis only a week behindx italy and the rest of the country is only a week behind new york. So were all sounding the alarms, doing everythingw3 we c to slow that down. Give us more time for hospitalc beds, capacity, andco equipment that we know can save livesjf f the about one out of ten people theirjf lives. Governor pollis, best of luck to you. We appreciate your time. L4jd÷ vt know itslp a tough and busy time so we appreciate you coming on. Thank you so much. Thank x,ua odon. President trump wants people back to work. What does his own medical experts say . Im going to talk to a doctor about that. Thats next. Yes okay good. When it comes to response times, just okay is not okay.

Im working to make connections of a different kind. Adp helps canyon ranch place the right people in the right jobs, so employees like dave can achieve what theyre working for. W3 President Trump tonight n n suggestio that states could go back to work in stages. Some places sooner than others. That as the nations topxd disee expert, dr. Fauci, says ating in the united ic here to discuss, cnnxd medicalu analyst dr. Kent. Doctor, appreciate you joining us. Thanks so much. So dr. Fauci last hour was talking to chris. Talking about the timeline about opening the country up. Listen to this. Okut got to be realistic and youve got to understanp] that you dont make the timeline. The timeline. So yoqu e0en to respond in what you see happen. Acceleration, it doesnt matter what you saye1 one week, two we, three weeks. go with what th situation on the ground is. E1 so when people say it ma a take talking about is how long it takes to go all the waylp down. But you may see, in a relatively shorter period of time, when but, you know, you cant make an arbitrary decision until you see what youre dealing with. Xd so, in contrast, appears t be ae1 direct contrast to what e jdtq qro open parts of thei]fa country b up when the virus is accelerating . L 5 absolutely. Nailed it. The virus is goingw3qto set the and itsco to think otherwis. I think doctors, you know, were were used to giving difficult news. This is routine for us. We tell people, you know, you have a hearti] attack. Youhave cancer. Delivering bad news is what adults do and we have to do it honestly. And so from a medical perspective, i th theres absolute consensus that we cant guess like this. We dont know whataggoing to qn;zo weve got to see virus is going to tell us. Ok i hope itw3 wont be horrible. Taurg. Listen. cocurg. We can go to certain statesx right now. They have virtually no problem or a verye1 small problem. We dont have to test the entire state in the middle west or wherever they may be. There are other parts of the country, which we need to÷d get better feel for what is going on. And the way we do that is by increasinge1 testing andok identifying people who are getting out of circulation, and tracing. Thats what we calloklxcontain. So that appears to be another in contribution to what the president s saying. You say testing is an ongoing failure. 3 how far behind are we in in its too late fornr new york ci to use it as a containment measure. Its not too late for Oklahoma City orok omaha3w for places its just sto2u jt to happen to start to use i so hes actually the ut seen casesok is exactly contrary to best practice. We want to go where its just a little hint and thats where you canni make testing useful to contain. Its a whole lotv easier to is which is managingg thousands. 30,000 cases. So exactly in a placew3 se most adverse to it, saying its not happe. Rft here. Its haping in the bigger cities. They are the people, the places, that need it the most. G had a fire here. Lets get rid of the fire trucks. I meaqa you just you have t be ready. You have to be ready. There might be somexd cities th never see this. So what . < most cities will see this. Most towns wilpd see this. And ifq we overshoot a little bit, its way better than undershooting. Theres no theres no question about t that. So, doctor, the the governor here, governor cuomo, giving a little cautious optimism today. Hospitalization rate going down. Could the curve be flattening . Lc i think its a little early to get toofa excited. I im heartened by the fact that governor cuomoe1 has beenx right on throughout. Hes certainly not an optimist. Buti] hes a realist. For himq to say that, knowing that we would be talking about it tonight and that it would spreadxdfa all around, makes me thinklp that its possible that what hes saying is that, yes, we are seeing the first moment ofc slowing down. The curve aint goingqdown yet. 3 but the rate of rise of the curve was starting to slow. And thats wonderful. Yeah, because he did say tha away. So that means we havent seen the worstxd of it yet. Thank you, doctor, we appreciate it. Ok sure. The senate tonight trying to hammer out the final details of thet stimulus bill before voti and that could happen any minute now so we are going to go live to the hill next. Te it. Why . Hes the one.

The senate were looking at the senate floor there. The Senate Voting any minute now on the economic stimulus bill. The largest in u. S. History that will put money in americans pockets. Our senior Congressional Correspondent manu raju joins us now from washington. Also, our Business Editor at large richard quest. Good evening to both of you. Again, were awaiting this. So the first vote, manu, i think is going to be on amendment. And then well get the vote. That should happen any moment. It took days to get to this point, manu, but the senate has a deal in place. Break did doit down for us. Whats in it . Its a massive deal. Its roughly 2 trillion. It affects so Many Industries and companies and workers who have been displaced and americans, as well. They will be impacted who make a certain amount of money. They would get direct payments. Essentially, that are big bucket items here. Including 500 billion fund that would go to provide loans for Bigger Companies that need it. There would be additional 350 billion in loans for Small Companies that need it. There would also be 250 billion to expand jobless benefits in this country. And, in addition to that, another 250 billion for those direct payments that i am referring to. People individuals who make 75,000 a year or less, roughly, would get about 1,200 in this proposal. And people who family members, couples, file married couples filed jointly would get 150,000 in addition to 500 per dependent child. That would decrease the more you make and it would phase out for individuals who make more than 99,000, they wouldnt get anything. But thats essentially how this is broken down. A whole sweep of money set aside for everything from hospitals, which would get more than 100 billion in this proposal. States that are cash strapped also getting more than 100 billion. And the federal government itself, agency after agency, would get a total of roughly 200 billion in emergency spending. So all told, this massive proposal, the biggest rescue package in American History meant to provide a jolt to the economy. Meant to deal with the fallout of the coronavirus pandemic. The question is how much of an impact will it ultimately have, don . Biggest according to the House Speaker and others, its going to be more to come. Right . So its going to be even bigger. Richard quest, treasury secretary Steve Mnuchin said he expects this deal to keep the economy afloat for three months. So give me your assessment here. What do you think . I think its a balanced a very balanced bill in the sense that it does give money to the workers who need it most. And it does that through the extension of the unemployment benefit. But also, those that 500 billion going to large corporations. That would keep them going and that, of course, is more jobs. But will it be enough, no, it wont, Everybody Knows that. Its just a question of when they have to come back to do it. It wont keep the economy afloat for three months. It will just sort of keep it trucking. It will give the ability for others to play their role. Now, the core to this, don, and the core to the success of
