president trump tried to gut the centers for disease control and national institutes for health. think about this. the united states of america as recently as ten, 15 years ago, we had the best public health -- public health infrastructure, the best public health safety net in the history of the world. we had the centers for disease control. we had the national institutes of health. in cincinnati we have the national institutes of occupational safety and health, only one of its kind in the world. we have our county public health departments in each of ohio's 88 counties and all over the country. we had the best in the world until president trump began to try to gut the c.d.c. and the n.i.h. he refused to fill key public health positions. most importantly, this is just unbelievable when you think about it and i know senator young, the presiding officer, had concerns about that. he got rid of the white house's entire global health security team two years ago. let me repeat that. for two years president trump left us without the team that's supposed to manage pandemics. now, you kno

when it came to the centers for disease control, i had the same goal in mind. and we didn't quite reach it. over the last four years we've seen a 14% increase at c.d.c. i believe that this coronavirus pandemic threat is going to open the eyes of america to the need to make sure the c.d.c. is adequately, properly funded for years to come. so at the outset, the focus of the mind is on those agencies of government which do the absolute essential work of research and the prevention of the spread of disease. so the n.i.h. and c.d.c., they need to occupy a special place when it comes to budgeting by the federal government. the second thing that we note is there are practical questions to be asked and answered. we're now talking about the development of a test to determine whether individuals have been infected by the coronavirus. that test is now starting to come forward. it will be released in states across the united states in the next several weeks. some obvious, practical questions face us. how much does this test cost? is it covered by health insurance? if not c

substantial increase at the center for disease control, substantial increase in our strategic stockpile of medicines and medical supplies. the establishment happened when i was the chairman of the committee for jurisdictions on the appropriations committee of the infectious disease rapid response fund. my friend, the current chairman of that committee, continued to add to that and added additional funds to it. congress actually -- i will tell you, they gave more money than the last administration asked for or this administration in these critical areas. with the idea that sooner or later, this kind of day would come. you can't prepare for it in a day. you have to do the preparation over a long period of time. i think we have done that. i think we are better positioned than most countries. having said that, you have the immediate response. i'm with my friend the chairman here -- it is early days. i have lots of confidence in our professionals at the center for disease control and at the national institute of health as well. and that is really where the response is. our job is to make sur

what i need to do is to continue to do what the center for disease control told us all we need to do, which is to maintain good personal hygiene and social distancing, a new phrase that we've all become acquainted with. but as long as you're negative and you do those things, then you're likely going to be healthy and not be affected directly by this virus. so that's one of the things that is happening in realtime now, development of the new test, the proliferation of these inexpensive and quick testing will allow for not only people who are positive to be identified so they can be treated either at home or in a health care facility, and the truth is, most of us, if you're otherwise healthy, if you get the coronavirus, you may experience some minor symptoms. one of the biggest concerns is people who got the virus and are asymptomatic or pre-symptomatic and whether they're affecting other people. but for most of us you'll be nine after you recover. but you need to be isolated so you don't infect others. and some people, particularly the elderly and people with comorbidities, underlying

should be reported publicly every day but also all that data needs to come to the national centers for disease control every day so that we can know truly what's going on out there because we don't have that data now. and to have that data is going to give us a better understanding to be able to measure both the prices as it stands and the healthcare risk we face but also measure success as it starts to happen because we need to be able to measure that success to get people back to work, back to their families, to get people back on track in their lives . so this bill provides an increase in funding for healthcare, a major increase in addition to what i just talked about and about $100 billion for hospitals and all healthcare providers with $75 billion appropriated to be able to support our healthcare systems in a more flexible manner, 30 billion in medicare pipayment increases for hospitals that are directly treating patients with coronavirus >> going to leave these remarks, the senate will be back at noon eastern for more debate on coronavirus legislation. live now to annapolis maryland with larry h

the centers for disease control. $12 billion to assist the military in addressing this coronavirus. boone dollars for k-12 foration -- $12 billion k-12 education. there's $10 billion in it for airports. $20 billion for public transportation. this is an injection of appropriated money to keep this economy going. it is an injection of loan money and an opportunity for the federal reserve within their discretion under a program that has been established for decades and decades to loan money not only to be companies but medium-sized and small companies under the federal reserve asgram commonly known section 13, subparagraph three. so i would just say to my president, mr. before we come down here and make inaccurate statements, read the bill. understand what we are doing, that this is to get money to workers who need to stay on the job. this is the bill to get unemployment benefits to workers who are already off the job and injection meant -- and injection of cash into our economy. and to keep the airlines and related businesses afloat. i know americans are hoping and praying for this ton

if the best expert advice from the centers for disease control is that older americans should not fly and the white house has spiked that advice for whatever reason, and so individual officials have to leak it in order to let the american people know that's the real advice, this is an important moment in this crisis, right? this is sort of -- this is the worst-case scenario that you get from a government that doesn't know what they're doing and is willing to lie to the people about things that will keep them alive. and so this apparently, this kind of leak, anonymous tip to the press, is how we the american public are going to get access to the real recommendations of the real experts who are supposed to be giving us advice to save lives. there have been a lot of problems with the federal government's bungling -- i'll say it again. i'm trying to be nice. and slow and internally contradictory and craven and dishonest and ignorant handling of this crisis. but honestly if the white house is blocking the cdc from telling americans very basic stuff like this, very simple, direct rules and

quote, the centers for disease control and proongs submitted the plan as a way to control the virus, but white house officials ordered the air travel recommendation be removed, said one official who had direct knowledge of the plan. the trump administration officials have since suggested that certain people should consider not traveling, but they've stopped short of the stronger guidance that was sought by the cdc. the person who spoke to the associated press on condition of anonymity did not have authorization to talk about this matter. so if this associated press report is correct, the centers for disease control concluded, internally, in what was presumably a science-driven process, that not just people with underlying health conditions, not just people with other health challenge, but all older americans, should not fly. that was the cdc's reported conclusion about the advice americans should be given in the context of this virus, in order to keep ourselves safe and alive. older americans don't get on planes. what happened to that recommendation? white house officials ordered the
