Fox and friends first continues right now. Good morning, you are watching fox and friends first on saturday morning. Thanks for getting up early with us today, a busy show covering all angles of this pandemic. We have some of the latebreaking developments this morning. More Small Businesses in and around new york taking a hard hit later tonight. Effective 8 00 pm, nail and hair salons with barbershops and any other personal care Service Business will have to shut its doors. Governor cuomo and the governors of new jersey, pennsylvania and connecticut says this is just a way of stopping the spread of covid19. Most of those services do require close contact or even touching. Of the governors acknowledged this will be very difficult for Small Businesses but is necessary and they are working with the federal government to make sure theres a financial cushion. Matildas law protects the most Vulnerable People including those who are 70 years or older or people with underlying illnesses or compromised immune systems, requires these people to stay home and only allows them to be around immediate family members or Close Friends if they have an emergency.

That goes into effect at 8 00 pm. There will be a 90 day ban on residential and commercial evictions, new rules going into effect this weekend. Rob making people not pay mortgages or rent. As the number of covid19 cases increase so does the anxiety around this virus. Headlines like this one not helping, the journal writing global viral outbreak like coronavirus once rare will become more common. Here to talk about that at all of this is a panel of medical experts, Infectious Disease disease and doctor hussein, Orthopedic Surgeon and doctor kevin campbell, cardiologist and author of losing our way in healthcare. Thanks for getting up early on saturday morning. We start with you. Do you agree with that headline that we will see more of these types of viruses moving around the world . Unfortunately i totally agree with that line. We have already seen numerous viral pandemics in this new millennium, we had multiples people are aware of, we had sars, h1n1 swine flu, middle eastern respiratory syndrome, sica, dengue fever and now this deadly coronavirus. We had avian flu, dont forget about that. As we start encroaching more and more into the dark jungles of the world we should expect to see more and more of these viral pandemics. Are we overpopulated . Is that part of the problem. If you look at population numbers around the world over the last 50 years you wouldnt believe how many more people there are then when our parents were around. What i hope to see what all of this is done, viruses are not going away and the genetic confinement we are exposed to is quite complex. What i hope to see is we recognize how transmissible these are and we learned something when all is said and done, we can get through this that can help us to develop a rapid Global Response when it happens again. Same issue to you. What do you make of this . More viruses, more pandemics like this . It is obvious as our colleagues have said that this is not the pandemic in my lifetime and wont be the last. Really what ideas for me is we have to do something to put more funding into research to deal with these types of things so that we have a more rapid Global Response, we are able to develop vaccines more quickly and the university of North Carolina developed the Microbiology Lab a test for covid19 but the red tape and the fda took an extra 3 weeks to have this commercially available. I think weve got to do a lot more to streamline the response to pandemics like this. How much do you think the numbers will continue to spike . We are testing more. How bad is going to get . Unfortunately we are in the steep slope of the curve as i predicted for almost 6 weeks. We should continue to expect to see an explosion of cases over the next i would say four weeks. Hopefully by then with increasing lockdown and we will see a flattening of the curve. Everyone is familiar with that but until we lock things down we are going to continue to see this acceleration of cases. When you look at italy it just keeps getting worse and worse and feels like they had been locked up for at least a few weeks now, close to a month. Should we expect that . Italy is starting to see a flattening of the curve. Likely what happened in italy, people were infected at home and infecting other members of the household but over the past 45 days we are starting to see that curve flatten. We are still seeing new cases but they are not accelerating like they are in the United States so think of it is 10 to 14 days behind italy. That is a good thing to think about if youre trying to plan this. Doctor hussein, back to you. This chloroquine, the president was really optimistic the last couple days. What do you think about that . The data is interesting. We still have a lot to learn. We are at the steep end of the curve. Many in my neighborhood tell you where this is heading. We dont have enough data. It looks promising. A lot of people are talking about a but time will tell. Rob everybody wants to know when can i get out of my house and get back to life that would be some kind of normal. The fear a lot of people have is even if this thing is starting to flatten out and cases are going down the moment you come back outside everybodys back together they should back up. Do you expect that . Im hoping we do our Due Diligence as a nation and continue to self quarantine, continue to practice social distancing because like our colleagues said this is going to peek. We are couple weeks behind italy but we are looking at a situation in our country for the next probably 6 weeks or 8 weeks we still need to stay inside. We have potential treatments, these drugs dont treat the disease in terms of curing the disease, they mitigate what the disease does to the bodies and shorten the duration of the disease and lessen the effects of the disease and certain people. With those two things together this may tighten up the time window a little bit. We appreciate it. Checking other headlines, evacuations underway to bring home hundreds of americans trapped overseas.

Rob they will see a lot more of that too. We appreciate it. Andrew cuomo announcing new york state will move to join california in confining nearly all of its 19 million residents stating we are closing the valves to limit the outbreak. Cuomos executive order mandates 100 of nonessential workforce must stay home. The order takes effect sunday evening but some questions remain about this. Former Lieutenant Governor of new york and chairwoman of the committee to reduce infection deaths and also joe borelli, for the 50 first district, spokesman for the state gop. I want to start with you real quick because we got a bit of a story with you. We heard you were sick, not feeling too good and you got tested for covid19. We have a few people in our Office Building that tested positive and i had a few symptoms the other day so to because this took the test, having gotten the results yet. It is good in that respect. Rob please let us know how the test goes, hopefully you are okay. Talking about what youre going to implement starting sunday night in new york city, all nonessential business shutdown. Thats going to be a real strain on this town. It is going to be a tremendous economic strain on this town, on all new yorkers as well as people in california, nevada and illinois are going to be doing this too. 80 Million People will be affected but there is compelling Science Behind this. New data out of europe shows infected patients should the most virus in days one through 5 of the infection, generally before they have symptoms so telling people who dont feel well to stay home isnt enough. New data in the us shows people dying from the coronavirus are adults between 2054, telling older people and baby boomers to stay home isnt enough. We can look at these suggestions and see the Health System will be overwhelmed. Two ic unit that ventilators for healthcare workers. For all those reasons please regulations are being imposed. I feel for all the people who are economically effective but imagine if you spent 30 years building a mom and pop diner or a drycleaner or any kind of Small Business and suddenly you are close and face bankruptcy if you cant open soon. Lets hope this does not last more than 3 or 4 weeks. Kim jong un that theres enough money in the stimulus plan to keep these guys going because when you ride around the city right now you see countless little mom and pop shops which are the backbone of this country shutdown and you got to think how can they get through this time with the rent they have to pay in the overhead. It is unbelievable. When we implemented now, there has been a backandforth between the mayor of new york city and the governor, the mayor wants to go further with this. He wants to lock things down, the governor i dont think want to take it as far. Is right . You have to deal with the specific difference for me to weigh in on that but when we look at history all the way back to the spanish flu of 1918, the cities that acted soonest and most conclusively to close down saved the largest number of lives. But the key is it shouldnt last too long. The incubation for this disease is 14 days at most. Of the people who are infected but dont have symptoms now stay home for 14 days it should be at some point obvious now, the transition should stop. Rob thank you, looks like new york city could be an epicenter for all of this and we will wait and see how this goes with this lockdown coming up. We appreciate it.
