[4]
and they start handing out checks a lot
[7]
of people are gonna have their
[9]
businesses built back up quickly I hope
[11]
and we'll see if complicated big small
[15]
business is actually big business so I
[18]
thank them both and please we have some
[22]
great gentlemen let me say great
[25]
gentlemen that's correct
[28]
thank you very much today my
[31]
administration is also issuing new
[32]
guidelines to protect elderly Americans
[35]
who remain the most vulnerable by now
[38]
nursing homes should have suspended the
[40]
entry of all medically unnecessary
[43]
personnel today we're further
[46]
recommending that all nursing home
[48]
facilities decide the same staff to care
[51]
for the same group of residents
[52]
consistently to minimize any potential
[55]
spread and we're also urging facilities
[58]
to designate separate areas for healthy
[61]
and sick residents and this is a
[63]
practice that we probably will be
[65]
recommending into the future long after
[67]
the enemy is gone this particular enemy
[70]
is God we're also making every effort to
[72]
provide relief to our great veterans we
[76]
take very good care of our veterans at
[79]
my direction secretary Wilkie will use
[81]
any authority at his disposal to extend
[83]
deadlines for benefits and to postpone
[86]
debt collections we're now conducting
[89]
well over 100,000 corona virus tests per
[93]
day it's over a hundred thousand tests a
[97]
day and these are accurate tests and
[100]
they're moving rapidly which is more
[102]
than any other country in the world both
[105]
in terms of the raw number and also on a
[108]
per capita basis the most the FDA has
[112]
also authorized the first coronavirus
[115]
antibody test developed by selects a key
[118]
step that will help identify people who
[120]
have recovered and to understand their
[123]
immune response and their immune system
[125]
moments ago I directed secretary a czar
[128]
an Acting Secretary wolf to use any and
[131]
all available authority
[133]
the defense production act to ensure
[135]
that domestic manufacturers have the
[137]
supplies they need to produce
[139]
ventilators for patients with severe
[141]
cases of CO VI D 19 you know what that
[147]
is right
[148]
become a very famous term Co V ad Co vyd
[152]
this action will help General Electric
[155]
Hill ROM Medtronic ResMed Royal Philips
[161]
and biomedical overcome obstacles in the
[164]
supply chain that threatened the rapid
[166]
production of ventilators we have over a
[170]
hundred thousand being built right now
[173]
or soon to be started we anticipate
[175]
issuing more orders under the defense
[178]
production act in the very near future
[180]
in addition to the one that I've just
[183]
signed against 3m for face masks we just
[187]
signed a element of the act against 3m
[194]
and hopefully they'll be able to do what
[196]
they are supposed to do just spoke to
[200]
Mary Barra of General Motors and she
[202]
said they're very soon going to be ready
[205]
to start production of the ventilators
[208]
they have a lot of ventilators that
[209]
they've committed to build and they'll
[211]
be starting very very quickly FEMA
[213]
continues to deliver resources to areas
[217]
most affected by the virus including New
[219]
York on top of the 3,000 beds were
[222]
already providing to the Javits Center
[224]
the Department of Defense is adding
[226]
another 48 ICU beds
[228]
Governor Cuomo is asked that this
[230]
facility go and it's a big beautiful
[235]
facility it'd be converted to a kovat
[238]
hospital and we hadn't done that yet we
[242]
hadn't thought in terms of doing that
[244]
but there uses their real demand is for
[246]
that and we had meetings on it with the
[250]
task force we had meetings with the
[252]
military and I've decided to say yes I'm
[255]
going to do that that I will be signing
[258]
and agreeing to a yes answer so that we
[262]
will be doing that and also we will be
[265]
laughing it so the federal government is
[268]
doing a lot of things that wasn't
[270]
anticipated that it do this is a 2500
[276]
and or 2900 can easily be set up
[279]
hospital built in Javits Center and so
[283]
we're going to be converting that to a
[286]
covet 19 hospital and it's going to be
[291]
staffed by the military and by the
[294]
federal government and based on the fact
[297]
that I agreed to that we had two other
[299]
facilities that were likewise asking for
[301]
it and that would be in Louisiana and
[306]
also in Dallas and we'll be doing those
[309]
we spoke to the governor of Louisiana
[311]
spoke to the governor of Texas and we've
[314]
told them that we will be staffing those
[316]
hospitals again above and beyond but
[320]
that's okay we have to do that in
[323]
addition the u.s. NS comfort is docked
[325]
in New York to accept patients that is a
[329]
non Kovac to date FEMA has delivered
[332]
more than 4 million n95 mask respirators
[336]
and it's think of that 4 million 4
[341]
million don't forget we're a secondary
[343]
source the states are doing it and we're
[346]
backing them up but we've gotten four
[347]
million n95 respirators 1.8 million
[351]
surgical masks 460 thousand face shields
[356]
1.4 million gloves and four thousand
[360]
four hundred ventilators just to the
[362]
city and to the state of New York
[364]
and some of them now are being sent I
[367]
spoke with both Governor Cuomo and mayor
[370]
de Blasio a little while ago and some of
[373]
them are being sent to the city all of
[376]
America stands with the people of New
[378]
York in this time of need it's
[380]
definitely a hot spot but we have other
[382]
hot spots also and we're taking them
[384]
taking care of them very very strongly
[387]
very powerfully we have the finest
[389]
people in the world in those locations
[392]
and I think the federal government has
[394]
not only acted early but acted quickly
[397]
professionally this
[398]
no people like this doctors nurses first
[401]
responders and other health care
[403]
providers who want to help New York at
[406]
this critical time should visit website
[409]
nyc.gov slash help now nyc.gov slash
[415]
help now they need help now they need
[418]
people to help them we have great
[421]
facilities and we've built some brand
[423]
new facilities big ones but we need help
[425]
we need help for professional people so
[429]
if you're in an area that isn't so
[431]
affected you're a doctor a nurse a
[433]
healthcare worker please get to that
[437]
website and we would really appreciate
[438]
your help New York City needs it
[441]
Louisiana by the way needs it Michigan
[445]
needs it whatever you can do those are
[446]
very strong hot spots they need help in
[449]
recent weeks as the virus has spread and
[452]
economic hardship has followed we have
[455]
seen Americans unite with incredible
[457]
selflessness and compassion I want to
[460]
remind everyone here in our nation's
[461]
capitol especially in Congress that this
[464]
is not the time for politics endless
[467]
partisan investigations here we go again
[470]
I've already done an extraordinary
[473]
damage to our country in recent years
[476]
you see what happens it's witch hunt
[479]
after witch hunt after witch hunt and in
[482]
the end the people doing the witch hunt
[484]
have been losing and they've been losing
[485]
by a lot and it's not any time for witch
[489]
hunts it's time to get this enemy
[492]
defeated conducting these partisan
[495]
investigations in the middle of a
[496]
pandemic is a really big waste of vital
[501]
resources time attention and we want to
[504]
fight for American lives not waste time
[507]
and build up my poll numbers because
[509]
that's all they're doing because
[510]
everyone knows it's ridiculous so we
[513]
want to focus on the people of this
[516]
country even the people of the world
[518]
we're gonna be able to help them because
[520]
right now is an example we're building
[522]
so many ventilators very very hard to
[524]
build but we're building thousands
[526]
thousands of them and a lot of them will
[529]
be coming at a time where we won't need
[530]
them as badly
[532]
because it takes time very complex very
[534]
expensive and we'll be able to help
[537]
outside of our country we think we'll be
[539]
able to help that's something that you
[540]
cannot easily produce as citizens were
[544]
linked together by the shared bonds of
[546]
national love loyalty and affection
[547]
there's no earthly force more powerful
[550]
than the patriotic pride that stirs in
[552]
our hearts and that is so true it's
[554]
incredible the job that everybody's been
[556]
doing everybody they don't sleep they
[559]
don't go to bed sometimes they get
[561]
nothing said to somebody recently on the
[564]
task force how many hours sleep have you
[567]
gotten over the last couple of days the
[569]
answer was none none in one
[572]
Massachusetts neighborhood citizens come
[575]
out of their homes each night at eight
[577]
o'clock from their porches and they sing
[580]
god bless america
[581]
others have joined in spreading from
[583]
house to house down one Street up to the
[585]
next until their little town with a
[588]
spirit of patriotism and reminding all
[590]
Americans that were all in this together
[593]
we'll fight together and we will win
[595]
together we're going to win this now
[598]
what I'd like to do is I'm going to step
[600]
out we have a meeting on the subject and
[603]
I'm gonna step out just for a few
[604]
moments I'll be right back we'll answer
[606]
some questions but you have some very
[609]
hardworking people who have done an
[611]
incredible job led by Vice President
[613]
Mike Pence
[614]
head of the task force and then Jared
[617]
Kushner is going to say a few words and
[619]
Admiral pull of check
[621]
Peter Navarro dr. Burks and myself I'll
[625]
be right back so I'll see you in a
[628]
little while
[629]
I did take a test we just came out this
[633]
is from the White House physician you
[634]
may have it just came out I just took it
[636]
this morning and I took it it took me
[639]
literally a minute to take it and it
[642]
took me I guess it was 14 or 15 minutes
[645]
I went to work I didn't wait for it but
[647]
said it took 14 minutes or something to
[650]
come up with the conclusion and it said
[652]
the president tested negative for kovat
[654]
19 so that's the second one I think I
[657]
took it really out of curiosity to see
[659]
how quickly it worked and fast it worked
[661]
and it's a lot easier I've done them
[663]
both and the second one is much more
[665]
Pleasant Jeff I can tell you that much
[668]
more pleasant so I'll be back in a
[669]
little while and Mike please take over
[672]
thank you thank you all very much I'll
[674]
be right back
