The novel coronavirus or COVID-19 has already claimed half a million lives across the globe, and here in the United States, nowhere has been hit harder than New York.

Again, if I could make a semi-partisan point, maybe that is why it is important to have you and the Vice President running these things finally.

This is not the first time our country has had to deal with an outbreak and it likely won't be the last.

There’s no way I think any of us can excuse what the president did yesterday.
