11:00 pm
balanced,ed not the media mob, e look for the truth and the truth fax without fear. if also, laura's on the spring mommy daughter spring vacation. let your heart not be troubled. bill hemmer in. >> here on the east coast, good evening everyone. the end of a long and confounding week and america, i am bill hemmer in new york. the coronavirus continues to spread in the u.s., more than 1700 cases. at least 48 deaths reported thus far, and tonight we will hear from some of the doctors on the front line for what you can do to keep yourself and your loved ones from getting sick. t it will also hear from a woman, she had the coronavirus and has r recovered. she will tell us about her recovery. a first though tonight, we begin with president trump declaring a national state of her emergency over the virus today that moved freeing up $50 billion in disaster funds to help fight the outbreak. this comes as a u.s. national guard gets ready to deploy 1,000 troops across six states to assist in containment efforts.
11:01 pm
our coverage begins at the white house tonight, fox news kevin corke is with me with morr on this from washington. let's begin with the news and headlines of the day. >> always good to be with you, bill. by declaring a nationall emergency president trump opened the door for significant more government aid to combat this virus that has infected more than 138,000 people worldwide and left dozens of americansnt dead. >> to unleash the full power of the federal government, i am officially declaring a national emergency. two very big words. >> the president to speaking today in the rose garden, he highlighted the administration's multipronged approach to combating the spread of the virus including containment and mitigation measures. he also expanded testing optiona for millions of americans who might just need them. >> we will remove or eliminate every obstacle necessary to deliver our people the care they
11:02 pm
need and are entitled to. no resource will be spared. >> very interesting comments by the president today, anthony fauci said today that things will likely get worse before they get better. but, it is important to point out he also added he believes the u.s. is now significantly better positioned to bend the infection curve. >> that curve that i referred to that goes up, we don't want to have that curve. we want to suppress it down to that small amount. >> late into friday evening, a a political continues on washington as lawmakers wrangled with the white house over what would be included in the hospital that would help fund the government fight. steve mnuchin called ond democrats to back the presidents payroll tax holiday idea, he thinks that will be an effort to boost the economy.
11:03 pm
>> the president is very interested in the payroll tax, and stimulus. we are working with congress on that, if congress wants to do the stimulus in a different format, we will consider that. >> steve mnuchin the treasury secretary and lawmakers still try to hammer out those final details. we also learned today that target, cvs, and walmart will set aside some of their parking lots in an effort to establish drive through testing centers even as the overall numbers oft tests for coronavirus to lag. he heard from the president that millions more will soon be made available. l >> bill: we may hear from nancy pelosi on the capital this hour. kevin, thanks. nice to see you in washington. kevin corke there. were going to take you to texas right now, governor greg abbott declaring a state of emergency is at least 29 people tested positive for that in that state. >> we are going to make it through this. we have been through situations
11:04 pm
like this before, we made it through sars, we made it through ebola, we made it through h1n1. this is not a death sentence we are dealing with. >> texas lieutenant governor dan patrick, thank you for your time. rolling this out as we go, let's play it in real time. does that emergency declarationn change or help with anything you are doing? >> absolutely, it allows us to expand all of our state resources that are available to us which are significant wherere needed and when needed. break out in a particular area, we can move to that area.fi secondly, we are relaxing rules to expand telemedicine. we are very good at that in texas to begin with, but we want to enlarge that. we told the attorney general, prosecute anyone who is price gouging. we are restricting visitation to day care centers, to nursing homes, to hospitals, and two prisons. and we backed insurance companies to waive copays, so far i think most have come along
11:05 pm
and i think all will. >> bill: do you think you are ahead of it right now, or behind it right now? 39 cases in the state of texas, how would you gauge that at the moment? >> i think we are ahead of it. governor abbott and our entire emergency team have done an excellent job of preparing us. i will tell you, it was interesting tonight earlier on fox i saw the governor from ohio talking about their modeling shows about 100,000 cases potentially. the modeling that i have but i have worked with for the people, i am looking at about 300,000 cases that are serious cases. which would be three times ohio, we are about three times the size of ohio with 30 million people. if you extrapolate that, we don't know these final numbers. 60% of over 30 million contract the virus, that is 18 million people. about 2-3% are state numbers and national numbers, we haven't had
11:06 pm
a critical case yet. the u.s. cases and the national cases, that is about where we are. if you look at that, bill, a state like texas we could have 300,000 critical cases over the next 12-18 months. that could work out to 1,000 day. we are prepared for that. this is why we have to flatten this curve. >> bill: they are closing schools in ohio, you are not doing that in texas. >> we are leaving that to the districts. we believe in local control, we believe that the best people to make those decisions live there. we have 1200 school districts, 6 million kids in schools. we leave that up to the individuals, i will tell you that i think the school districts are being very responsible. most are either canceling classes, expanding spring break, some have been on, and some have been off. they are adjusting to that.
11:07 pm
i think we are very prepared, but people need to understand the seriousness of this and i think what the president has done and what we have done here in texas and other states have done by eliminating all of these big events, to hold on these numbers. i give you some general numbers. but we don't know what those numbers are, but what we have done on the federal level by the president and here in texas, we are reducing those numbers to flatten out that curve. we must flatten that curve. >> bill: you are right about that. i was just putting up some bulletin points. some venues temporary closing, increasing lab testing capacity, banning gatherings of 500 or more, encouraging telework.
11:08 pm
here's what i think is intriguing, the drive-through testing areas and san antonio, dallas, houston, and austin. when will they be working? >> san antonio started today, and i congratulate the mayor down there for initiating that along with the state and we are expanding them around the state. we are being very proactive, and we are prepared for this. one of the things -- >> bill: i apologize. breaking now. >> the pockets of people who may be affected by the crisis. so here we are, we did what we said we were going to do. put families first. w paid sick leave, paid sick days, family and medical leave, over 20 million children get their meals at school, they have food
11:09 pm
and security and this bill addresses that as well as food for our seniors, and others who depend on that and food banks as well. and then, other issues that relate to testing, testing, and testing. this is so important. again, between this legislation, we should see we have legislated the executive branch execute this legislation. we are really very proud of that work. we could have passed our bill yesterday, pushed our own bill which was a great bill and is still a great bill. but we thought it would be important to show the american people, ensure the american people that we are willing and able to work together to get a job done for them.m. we think our republicans, those who will be supporting the billr
11:10 pm
appreciate the president joining us with his tweet. we are very excited at the prospect. as for the input to all of that, our freshman class was very instrumental. they brought from home the suggestions about how to meet the needs of people. you are going to hear from him directly this evening. some of them are with us and all of them are a valued resource. i wish chuck schumer could be here, he started with $8.5 billion and was so much a part of ingredients in this legislation. he worked very hard on all of this. >> thank you very much. nobody worked harder than the speaker, i have been on theth phone with the speaker a lot of times.
11:11 pm
we have encountered. but she and secretary mnuchin obviously have worked very, very hard to come to this agreement. last week, we passed legislatiot to deal with the immediate health challenges caused by the coronavirus. we passed legislation fore research, mitigation of illness, for many things that were the direct result of the illness itself, or the virus itself. today, tonight, we are passing legislation which deals with the related economic consequences to people. in a very real way, to their employment, to their ability to support themselves and pay their bills, care for their children, and maryland you know schools will be shut down. the governor took that action. to help distance people.ld
11:12 pm
here we are aggregated together, violating the rule i suppose. but having said that, it was appropriate that we dealt with both sides of the challenge that confronts us. very frankly, there will be a third challenge. that third challenge is for the overwhelming economic a consequences to our enterprises and our economy. we are not through, i want toou join the speaker in saying that the reason we have been able to do both of these as robustly and effectively is because of the new members of the congress on the other side of the aisle. but for them we would not be in the majority, but for them we would not be able to address these issues with the confidence that we could pass them. if we couldn't have passed a good bill, perhaps we wouldn't have been able to get this bill. and this bill was a good bill. not as good as we thought it could be, but legislation is give and take. i want to think our new members
11:13 pm
of congress. not just for being here, note just for putting us in thehe majority, but as you have seen time after time after time, focusing on the people. >> the president tweeting his support for this about an hour ago, we would expect a vote on this sometime in the coming hours perhaps, than it goes of the senate perhaps on monday afternoon. stay tuned on that, we will tell you what is in the bill as well. in the meantime, as you have noticed throughout the week, everyday life is being turned upside down. school closures, business is shutting down, so many sports games and leagues being canceled. in light of all this, how do you protect yourself, what questions do you have? what about your own personal production and your family? we will bring in two experts,, janette nesheiwat and daliaod wachs. ladies, good evening to both of you. let me get to dr. wachs first,
11:14 pm
if someone is watching this tonight, maybe they don't feel good, maybe they have symptoms that they can't quite figure out. what would you say if you are not feeling sick, what sort of condition would you have? what you look for, doctor? >> a lot of the symptoms can kind of overlap with the cold, the flu. what we are looking at with coronavirus, cough, fever, and starting to have difficultyat breathing, that is in the early stage we would recommend if anyone has no symptoms to call their medical provider or contact the local health apartment.ar more severe symptoms could be worsening breathing, confusion, delirium, things like that. usually a cough, fever, and difficulty breathing come first. >> bill: we were sitting here
11:15 pm
today when we got the national emergency, there were a number of things on the medical front at the white house is trying to push out. of those items, what you think would help you in the job you are doing? >> i love the fact they want to encourage telemedicine, you can have access to a doctor or health care provider, a nurse practitioner from the comfort and safety of your home. you can ask the questions that you want, if you are unsure of what to do and can do that without being exposed to a hospital emergency room and you don't have to leave your house you are preventing the spread to others and keeping yourself healthy. that is the big thing. also, they are going to be morel lenient on doctors being able to test across state lines. for example, i am licensed in new york. i am not licensed in new jersey. as it is right now, i can't help or volunteer in new jersey or work in new jersey. it is a very big deal. being able to expand our efforts to help others across thery borders is also very important. encouraging and emphasizing
11:16 pm
effort for home health for those who are vulnerable, those who have severe underlying medical conditions, those are who are in rural areas, have access to home health services, people can go to them so they don't have to leave the community and be able to provide care they need. >> bill: what did you take from the announcement today? doctors are trying to deal with this every day. >> one thing that stood out was nursing homes and visiting our seniors, they are our most vulnerable population with this and when they brought up that we are going to have restrictions on that, i know a lot of people panicked and were concerned they wouldn't be able to see their loved ones.on you know, it shows they have identified among the higher risk populations under doing what they can in terms of controlling the spread and those efforts. >> bill: how long do you think we will have to do with this? what's your best guess?
11:17 pm
>> my best guess, i am hoping it is the summer and whether helps. i am hoping we will have a vaccine by summer, this is tricky and it is a new virus, i am cautiously optimistic that by the summer, we will get it under control. >> i hope so. but from history, it takes usually about a year or year and a half for a vaccine to be on the market. but hopefully they will have expedited fda approval for certain treatments and medications. >> bill: neither of you are suggesting that we will have to live in this level of anxiety that we have experienced for the past week, are you? >> we should absolutely try our best, i know it is easier said than done to remain calm and understand that you have the best doctors, nurses, paramedics in the world taking care of you. we need to make sure patients adhere to the guidelines, meaning not only just hand washing but social isolation, please don't go out to parties and public gatherings.
11:18 pm
that is how you spread the virus from person-to-person. it is a highly infectious, contagious virus that spreads from water droplets, coughing, sneezing that sort of thing. >> bill: you can probably tolerate it for now come up for a few days but the city is going to go stir crazy. we have been asking for questions from our viewers, we will get to those a bit later. thank you ladies. in a moment here too, we will hear from someone who had the coronavirus. she has recovered, her story ana what she wants americans to know about her experience.sh coming up next. ♪ guys, it's that time... and nothin's happenin'.
