In the president’s own words:
“I think you’ll see a very fast turnaround once we have a victory over the hidden enemy.”
In another point during this press briefing, Trump also acknowledged Americans who are keen on getting back to their jobs and businesses.
He confirmed that more information on the fight against COVID-19 will occur next week; then, Trump encouraged Americans to adhere to recommended CDC guidelines. At this time, those guidelines entail handwashing, social distancing, and refraining from handshakes.
A Cure Not Worse than the Problem
This month, President Trump has continued to warn about the perils of a cure worse than the problem. With increasing concerns about the ramifications of mass shutdowns, the president reiterates the need to take on COVID-19 without destroying our economy.

Pointing out the dangers of a depleted economy caused Trump to take heat from certain critics; although, two things can be true at once. We can take on coronavirus and simultaneously admit that economic destruction must be avoided. Right now, Americans will continue getting regular COVID-19 updates from Trump’s daily White House press briefings.
