all of that is on the chinese communist party not the chinese people. remember there were hundreds of thousands of innocent chinese flying all over the world in the month of january. they didn't know that they had the virus. the chinese communist party hid this. they hid it at the white house on the meetings on the 14th when they signed the world health organization put out a document on the 12th and then they tweet ed on the 14th after constantinople consultation with senior chinese medical officials , there's no human-to-human transmission, while they're at the white house and then they go to davos you're one of the first ones to report this , they don't tell anybody and actually when they started to stop the transmission, the traffic and the travel inside of china, they didn't stop it to the rest of the world it took donald j. trump, the 45th president of the united states, against his medical advisor's opinion because they were going off what the world health organization said. it was trump that stopped the international travel on the 31st of januar

the communist chinese won't let our scientists into the country.way, secretary of state mike pompeo is demanding china shut down the wet markets. beatles legend paul mccartney agrees. >> it wouldn't be so bad if you thought you would blame it on the markets. it seems sars and avian flu that afflicted us, they will say we need to get super hygienic around here. it's a little bit medieval eating bats. jesse: joining me, someone who has been at the chinese wet markets, peter li. i am seeing here, they are slaughtering and selling eels and snakes and alligators, scorpions and dogs. why are they doing that at these markets? >> that's a good question. you mention about the bats not being sold at the wuhan market. they don't need to be sold at the market for the virus to be transferred to animals. they could be transported from south china absent to wuhan before being transported to wuhan the animals may have already been infected by bat diseases. and they have eaten bats. so china -- jesse: you are saying before the wild life goes to the wet markets it c

that will be the decision of the chinese communist party. are they prepared to engage in trade in a way that is fair and reciprocal? overnight i saw comments from the chinese foreign ministry talking about a course of activity with respecter to australia, who had the temerity -- with respect to australia, who had the temerity to ask for an investigation. who would not want an investigation as to how this happened to the world? i assume the good people of china, doctors and scientists. imagine those doctors and scientists were working in our system, where you put hypotheses forward and you had the freedom to talk, and published papers. this is what democracies do best. the solution from this -- to this crisis will come from freedom loving people around the world. authoritarian regimes are poorly designed to deal with the kind of crisis this pandemic has engendered. a democracies we are free to critique and comment. you can ask the secretary of state a hard question. where it scientists and thought and journalists can operate freely, these are

chinese -- communist party. so the whole world can see what took place.ll be a time for accountability, we'll be able to attribute what happened to who did what, and we can move on from what is now an incident that has destroyed so much wealth not only here in the united states, but all across the world. maria: and so many lives as well. mr. secretary, you've talked to me about the huawei situation over time, and the last time we were in the studio together talking about this remember europe was pushing back saying, no, look, we're going to keep our infrastructure in place. you said the u.s. will not be able to share as much information. have you seen a change in sentiment as a result of what has taken place from china and the clear bad behavior? have you seen a change from our friends in europe or anywhere else? are they maybe now rethinking the fact that you can't trust the chinese and maybe you don't want the huawei telecom infrastructure in their country since they have open doors with the data going back to the communist government? >> maria, your po

class people, particularly the upper met last, m old-school lar democrats understand what the chinese communistis is about the freedom of the chinese people, we have to confront. we don't have a choice. this is this generations call to destiny. we have to confront this and beat it. jesse: during the cold war, who had full mobilization in this country against theio russians d to a certain extent but hollywood was on our side. you have movies against the russians, every russian was a fat guy from rocky, randall, all that stuff. i'm afraid of now, these parent companies, these studios, they are too much in business with china. they wouldn't make a chinese guy the bad guy in any motion picture because they are afraid to offend them because they'll pull the rug out of any distribution deal with any country with billions of deals. how do you fight an enemy that you are so economically entrencheder with? we work like that with russia. >> like investors, they are in bed. the financial community, corporate community and in particular the media, a cup of year, a movie had to be pulled before it was relea

chinese -- communist party. so the whole world can see what took place.ere'll be a time for accountability, we'll be able to attribute what happened to who did what, and we can move on from what is now an incident that has destroyed so much wealth not only here in the united states, but all across the world. maria: and so many lives as well. mr. secretary, you've talked to me about the huawei situation over time, and the last time we were in the studio together talking about this remember europe was pushing back saying, no, look, we're going to keep our infrastructure in place. you said the u.s. will not be able to share as much information. have you seen a change in sentiment as a result of what has taken place from china and the clear bad behavior? have you seen a change from our friends in europe or anywhere else? are they maybe now rethinking the fact that you can't trust the chinese and maybe you don't want the huawei telecom infrastructure in their country since they have open doors with the data going back to the communist government? >> maria, you

china's motive, they allowed a deadly virus to escape its borders and then the chinese communist party downplayed it to the world and depleted the market for critical protective equipment and what is china's motive and its end game? arkansas senator tom cotton investigates live with us and also he or she is on the frontlines in science and politics and dr. birx on the daily white house briefings will continue, plus a handful of states easing coronavirus restrictions this weekend, that is 46% of the gdp about to open, and as president trump signs the latest $484 billion stimulus package into law, house minority leader kevin mccarthy in what the leader of the country will look like and devon nunes will join us with breaking news on the person he wants to interview as well as his china investigation, and also ahead an exclusive interview with new york city mayor bill deblasio on if the big apple will ever be the same. all that and a lot more as we look ahead, right here right now on "sunday morning futures." and new information this morning , coming to light on what china really knew abou

italy, spain, south africa, the united states, all of this is at the doorsteps of the chinese communistarty. they are -- the chinese people are the biggest victims. this is a murderous group of gangsters and they've got to be held accountable by the world. maria: which is why i believe this upcoming election in november will be largely about china as well as the president's leadership for the coronavirus but people want to know that you've got a somebody in charge who is going to keep china accountable. we've been talking about this now for years, devin nunes doing an investigation into china over the last three years that i've been focused on on sunday morning futures where china has been putting military bases around the world, they've been stealing intellectual property, they've been tracking their citizens and they're trying to track the world. look, that's very important and i think we both know who has been spot-on on this and that is peter navarro in the white house. i want to get your take on this memo, two memos that peter sent. i agree that peter navarro has been spot-on. i ha

>> very much, the chinese communist party is very sophisticated.y infiltrated our platforms in the united states, spread this sort of fake news about the origin of the covid-19, blaming it on united states military through various platforms and as you mentioned a lockdown is another good example of them amplifying a false message. when this was called to my attention a month ago we sent a letter to the social media companies to try to clampdown on this propaganda machine coming out of china spreading false information trying to so seeds of discord and panic within the united states and lying about the origin of the coronavirus which we know came out of wuhan, china. this will be youtube, facebook, twitter. we are waiting for their response and working with them to take down this content that is an outright lie coming out of the chinese communist party. we will hopefully be getting a report card as early as next week on their ability to stop this. shannon: in the meantime a spokesperson for the chinese foreign ministry says this, we urge the us to s

this chinese communist party is such a repressive regime. we saw what happened in hong kong. this. the world is gathering consensus on the fact china is having a negative influence on the world. and that's good news. we got that could be census in the united states and i think it will grow significantly in europe as a result of it. the allies publishing back on china's do nation of the indo-pacific region which they were well on their way of doing prior to the trump administration coming into power. also, president xi stated publicly and in writing that he fully i tends to replace the united states as the world's global dominant power around 030 plus. i believe there will and gathering could be census of nations that china needs to be confronted and needs to be contained. i believe they will take as much advantage as they can. gets to the level it needs to be at. i do think that the economic compensation we made with china, the growing geopolitical confrontation that needs to be done in terms of containing them. we'll have as a result of how china bemade. a lot more could be

we strongly believe that the chinese communist party did not report the outbreak in a timely fashion to the world health organization. article 2 of the i.h.r.'s which was part of this reform mandates that a state party, includes china, shall continue to commune cailt to w.h.o. accurate public health information, there is an ongoing obligation even after the c.c.p. did notify the w.h.o. and it didn't share all the information it had. it covered up how dangerous the disease is, it didn't report the same human-to-human until it was in every province and sensored those who tried to warn the world to halt the testing of new samples and destroyed existing samples. they have not shared the virus samples with the outside world making it impossible to track the disease's evolution. making a legal determination today, i'm adherence to the i.h.r.'s the regulatory arm failed during this pandemic. i also note when countries adopted these new rules in twemp, we also gave the director germ of the world health organization encouragement to go public when a member wasn't following those rules and tha

now money goes through, for all chinese companies, said and. >> what happened we've got to have national leadership on these. >> another is that -- >> another -- >> communistonage campaign going out so we were talking about earlier, tom cotton another thing he said we should not be giving visa to say chinese students who want to study quantum computing a.i. advanced sciences that is what they want to put students in there and report back to the chinese government, i think it is important to understand, that it is very difficult to distinguish who is actually here to be learning and study and who is actually coming here to steal and to be part of this espionage companion universities are going to resist this because chinese students are cash continuous the college administration wants money that is the bottom line you said chinese lobby that is what chinese communist party has been effective at create loibz done with hollywood, done it with universities, then you've got those two groups spending out against any -- any you know, anything against china. >> you are coming around to my persistent of view maria the legislation in letters are great, i am all for

it takes a bit of common sense to say the chinese communist party needs to be held responsible. we can't establish it conclusively, we still know that they covered up this virus for weeks in december and january when they could have been forthright, when they could have tried to arrest its spread in wuhan. instead, they made the decision, deliberately, to allow this virus to spread around the world. in my opinion, xi jinping had decided, if china is going to suffer, the rest of the world, especially the united states, is going to suffer. there has to be consequences for those actions. >> harris: when you say "pay the price for every life lost, every job lost," what does that look like? >> first, i have introduced legislation that will amend the foreign sovereignties immunity act, which would allow those americans who have been infected by the virus, whether they've lost loved ones where they've been sick themselves, or they've lost a job or had a business close, to sue chinese officials. this is modeled on what is inflation that's been done in the past. for instance, most recent

its nadir off the long march and settle up and at that point to be controlled by mao in the chinese communist party is one.45 million people which is not 3 percent of china's population, it is three tenths of 1 percent of china's population. the chinese forces are likewise that they have 300,000 men under arms the best trained and equipped in china, one out of seven of the two.1 million of chinese under arms the chinese communists at that point have the roles of the red army with only 31000 have weapons or one.5 percent so looking at a china not only fragmented at the regional and local level but the armed forces also and not only as the commander-in-chief but the provider of the loose confederation that will take on japan. so that brings us to himself. so going through a roller coaster and what was particularly valuable or invaluable to me in the last 15 or 20 years, a great outpouring of fresh, new archival based history about china in this. and one of the most important aspects is the diaries were published in 2007. was difficult to understate how dramatically those were affecting people's

today you saw further evidence that there were days, days that went by from when the chinese communist party, the leadership there knew about this virus before they told the public writ large. a lot of cases, a lot of movement, a lot of travel around the world before the chinese communist party came clean about what really transpired. these are the kinds of things that open governments and democracies don't do. it's why it's such risk associated with the absence of transparency. we needed today. >> martha: it's hard to imagine giving everything that so many countries that been through how different it might have been if china had immediately been clear about what they knew about the origin of this virus and if they had shut down all the travel at that point. there were tens of thousands of people who flew out of the wuhan area after that point. how does this not to have a very negative, heavyweight impact on our relationship with china going forward? >> martha, i will say this. i've talked to my counterparts all across the world over the past handful of days. they all see this too. it'

just in america but all around the world the demands for accountability and consequences on the chinese communist party and a chairman g. if it turns out the chinese negligence and then chinese corruption and treachery was responsible for unleashing this pandemic on the world. >> sean: if his report bears out as you said, and i have no reason to doubt that it will look at it certainly speaks volumes. we weren't allowing travel from wuhan to any other area inc. china but they were perfectly willing to let people in wuhan travel to the rest of the world. that needs to be addressed and answered. senator cotton, thank you. as our monologue continues tonight, much to get to. we need to address what is the revolting, repulsive and sadly predictable behavior from two groups of people in this country. the same to predictable groups. the mob and the media, the democratic party. the vast majority of our fellow americans are working night and day, day and night together to beat back this national emergency and pandemic. these two hate filled groups using what is a disease antivirus at an important moment to

>> well the future for the chinese communist party is likely very differenten chinese communist partyas a ten ten hold and now back to square most reengtdly in hong kong, the chinese communist party rational power was weakened deliver growth and meet rising expectations in return, for totalitarian rule now that chinese government ability to deliver prosperity economic growth is ruined. even the chinese government is admitting for first time in 40 years they're actually going to have a contraction. what does that do to internal chinese stability? does what's happening in hong kong spread? we know that the chinese communist party relies on what we would regard as draconian information control methods, systemic use of propaganda to keep a lid on this because one thing totalitarian can't have free expression of this idea. does this uncork this? i don't know american manufacturing will be looking very closely at leaving china even before this crisis, you know, china cost a labor cost have grown and some companies were and a lot of other companies were looking to expand in southeast asia so

that will ultimately be the decision of the chinese communist party. are they prepared to engage in trade in a way that is fair and reciprocal. the last thing i will say is, of nas are some comments from the chinese foreign ministry talking about a course of activity with respect to australia. who had the temerity to ask for investigation. who could the world would not want an investigation of how this happened to the world? i assume the good people of china, doctors and scientists, imagine if they were working in our system, in a free system where you put hypothesises forward and you have the freedom to talk and publish papers and others can comment. this is what democracy does best. the solution will come from freedom loving people around the world, i am confident in that. authoritarian regimes are poorly designed to deal with the crisis that this pandemic has engendered. democracy is where we are free to comment, critique, you can ask the sectary of state a hard question. these are the places where scientists and freedom of thought and journalists ca

a long time there was a theory that if we are nice to china their system would change in the chinese communist party would behave in ways consistent with things that are of benefit to america. we would love to see the chinese people be successful. we care about them greatly. we watch the chinese, his party behave the way communist parties do. that's what you heard the president say earlier today. we have an obligation told those accountable who inflicted so much harm, so much damage to the global economy the lives of americans, people across the world. we will for the moment focus on the things that help keep people safe and there will come a time when not only the united states with the entire world will understand what took place and in the end the chinese communist party will ultimately be held accountable for what they did. shannon: another hot spot on the foreign policy front because you raised the red flag about the fact that after some intervention or action, october 30th for iran will again be able to buy a weapon system like china from russia, from other places. there are those who sa

chinese -- communist party. so the whole world can see what took place.ility, we'll be able to attribute what happened to who did what, and we can move on from what is now an incident that has destroyed so much wealth not only here in the united states, but all across the world. maria: and so many lives as well. mr. secretary, you've talked to me about the huawei situation over time, and the last time we were in the studio together talking about this remember europe was pushing back saying, no, look, we're going to keep our infrastructure in place. you said the u.s. will not be able to share as much information. have you seen a change in sentiment as a result of what has taken place from china and the clear bad behavior? have you seen a change from our friends in europe or anywhere else? are they maybe now rethinking the fact that you can't trust the chinese and maybe you don't want the huawei telecom infrastructure in their country since they have open doors with the data going back to the communist government? >> maria, your point is very well taken. yo

maria: that's right it's the chinese communist government >> this is the ccp virus. good and decent people and the chinese people are among the most good and decent people on earth. it's the people in wuhan that bore the brunt of this and were basically destroyed. the chinese communist party we know knew about this from at least late december in all probability from early december, and they knew it wasn't about the market okay? they knew it and i'm not saying we should have a full investigation, that it came from the p 4 lab or the cdc, and the p 2 lab in wuhan. that is all to be adjudicated later under an investigation but we know for a fact there was a patient that this came from and most importantly, because the taiwanese have told us this , they knew there was human -to-human transmission. on january 14, the world health organization put out a tweet that said after consultation, with the senior health ministers of the chinese communist party they had told them there was no human-to-human transmission. maria: that's exactly right. the who is protecting china, and t

the chinese communist at this point have 50,000 men on the rolls of the army with 31,000 of them haveweapons or 1.5% of all the chinese under arms, so you're looking at a china not only fragmented in all of the different leaders of the region al and local level but shang, sort of the preside e -- presider over loose confederation which is going to take us to japan, chang himself. his reputation has gone through roller coaster, what was particular valuable or invaluable to me in the last 15, 20 years has been outpouring of fresh new archival-base history about china in this period and one of the most important aspects about that is the dairies were published in 2007 and difficult to understate how dramatic those were affecting people's attitudes and understanding what chang was all about. one part of the older narrative was that chang was never interested in fighting the japanese but having ultimately battle with the chinese communist. what you get from the dairies and documents that have come out after japan seized in 1931, chang knew that in order for china to ultimately gain soverei

they were still parroting chinese communist lies in late january.s you said, they pressured countries not to impose travel restrictions on china in january and in february and they continue to cover for the chinese communist party today about the origins of this virus. he is not even a real doctor and the w.h.o. shouldn't get a dime of u.s. taxpayer dollars until he and his team is out. >> sean: we don't have to fund the w.h.o. we don't have the money anymore and i don't think we should be funding the u.n., will give that to china too considering their virulent anti-semitism and anti-americanism. now the question is on china's debt, why should china be given back a penny when they cause this trillions of dollars now this is costing never mind the human toll. we lost a lot of our american family in this. >> every business closed, every job lost, every life lost in this country is a direct result of the duplicity and the corruption of the chinese communist party and anything that we can do to make china pay the price for all of those losses and that s

but you will let the communist chinese party have authority over you.hat's the basic social compact there. if this could break that compact, they are in veal trouble. lou: general, we appreciate it. good to have you with us. more than 30,000 americans have been killed by this virus unleashed by the chinese. the accounting will get much larger by the day. we thank you very much, general. general jack keane. new evidence of corruption and disregard for any kind of law and order by the fbi leadership itself under president obama. during its politically corrupt investigation of the trump campaign it only got worse. as we work to get through these times together, you may not be thinking about blood donation, but blood is needed to save the lives of people who are sick with a range of illnesses. it's easy and safe to give. if you are in good health, please donate. we need heroes now. visit red cross blood dot org to schedule an appointment. robinwithout the commission fees. so, you can start investing today wherever you are - even hanging with your dog. so, w

even by chinese communist standards this is very odd behavior so it lends credibility i think to the nese could be covering up something that happened outside of that wet market. >> ed: and then that leads us to the question of what you actually do about it. senator tom cotton, the republican from arkansas who was ahead of the curve on this whole story was on fox last night laying out his view. >> if it bears out that the chinese communist party is responsible for every single death, every job lost in retirement nest egg lost from this coronavirus, and xi jinping and his chinese communist apparatchiks must be made to pay the price of that turns out to be true. >> ed: he went on to say that u.s. courts perhaps should be opened up for lawsuits that americans could file against the communist chinese leaders, on the other hand the president is doing a lot of business with china, trade and other matters he's been working on. how does this also allowed? >> i think the person who should be taking the lead on this as secretary of state mike pompeo. secretary pompeo has been saying for months

the chinese communist government doesn't want you to know.y're hiding the truth and spinning tales about how great they handled it we won't swallow propaganda like some in the media we're looking for the truth. last week we discussed two scientific theories about the origins of the virus. did it come from a wuhan wet market or come from accidental leak at a wuhan lab? steve mosher was our guest and internationally recognized authority on china. it has his belief that the virus jumped from bats to humans in a poorly run research lab. >> china has collected 2,000 dangerous viruses from the wild including 300 coronaviruses roughly we understand many of which came from the interimmediate horseshoe bats that we're talking about as original carrier of the virus. but if those viruses had stayed in bats in caves 160 miles away from wuhan they never would have come in contact with people would they? >> why are they taking bats of the cage bringing them to research facilities and -- investigating the viruses that the bats have? what is the purpose of t

they have a sense with the chinese communist party that they should be in charge of the globe. >> they do aspire to be a world leader and dominate the world. do you really want this country running the world. this chinese dictatorship that puts people in jail for faith. do you want people to lie to their own citizens and hide this virus that led to world destruction. not very often in the history of the world can you blame one country for this much damage. i want china to do three things or be sanctioned. i want them to philly cooperate with investigations regarding the wuhan lab. i want them to close the wet markets where they serve bats and monkeys and exot i -- and ec animals. and i want china to change their behavior. they need to let the democracy advocates out of jail that they put in jail in hong kong. they need to close the wet markets. and they need to cooperate with investigations. if they don't, we should sanction the hell out of them. judge jeanine: if we are able to go there, and we have gone there. they haven't let us anywhere near the lab. they ended up storing all the p

but you will let the communist chinese party have authority over you.s the basic social compact there. if this could break that compact, they are in veal trouble. lou: general, we appreciate it. good to have you with us. more than 30,000 americans have been killed by this virus unleashed by the chinese. the accounting will get much larger by the day. we thank you very much, general. general jack keane. new evidence of corruption and disregard for any kind of law and order by the fbi leadership itself under president obama. during its politically corrupt investigation of the trump campaign it only got worse. o qur every move. like this left turn. it's the next one. you always drive this slow? how did you make someone i love? that must be why you're always so late. i do not speed. and that's saving me cash with drivewise. my son, he did say that you were the safe option. and that's the nicest thing you ever said to me. so get allstate. stop bossing. where good drivers save 40% for avoiding mayhem, like me. this is my son's favorite color, you should try i

i think it shows us what the chinese communist party is trying to do now is to cover this up.hink they thought they could get away with a cover-up and they are trying to extend that, and then of course with their propaganda offensive to try to shed blame on other countries and change that dialogue, but the fact remains, our national security advisor has said and he sees the intelligence to know that they covered things up for two months, and just like you showed in that time line, we know there were cases as early as november. china is supposed to report any new virus to the world health organization, within 24 hours. and yet they really waited two months to report covid-19. jon: senator blackburn told sean hannity that china should be made to pay. listen. >> and of course they should compensate us. they should compensate these victims and these families. we need to begin to talk about an exit strategy. we need to be talking about how we are going to bring manufacturing back to the united states, how we bring our pharmaceutical manufacturing back and our supply chains, and tha

the chinese communists at that point a 50,000 men on the roles of the red army only 31,000 have weapons, or about 1.5% of all the chinese under arms. you're looking at a china not only fragmented and all of these different leaders of regional and local level but the armed forces also were fragmented. and chiang kai-shek should be viewed not as sort of the commander-in-chief of one great chinese army come here sort of the preside over this loose confederation which is going to take on japan. that brings us to chiang himself. his reputation has gone through a roller coaster in the opinion of the public and also among historians. what was particularly bilevel or invaluable to me was that in the last 15, 20 years this been a great outpouring of fresh new archival-based history about china in this period and one of the most important aspects about that is that they were published in 2007 and it's difficult to understand how dramatic the war was affecting peoples attitudes and understanding what chiang was all about. quite basically one part of the alternative was that chiang was never intere

so the years of the chinese communist party. in the years of the intelligence failures for the chinese communist party they had basically nothing in place. they had assassins and vap protection people's and spies but not a structure. but the coup d'État in april that year was a complete surprise and at the end of the year and with the canton uprising with the intelligence failure because we know virtually nothing about the enemy. so in this context founded as the first professional organization. it got off to a rocky start. but with the concrete useful spiraling which is referred to today as the three heroes of the dragonslayer, as mentioned earlier and one that survive more than a few years and went on to lead ccp intelligence in the early years of the people's republic. and that which followed with intelligence people and analysts people who do communications and technical work and that survives into the present. with those that were founded at that time and that saves a lot of lives and that was a disaster. and to this day on

same as what fdr did to the japanese in the second world war, as if the united states and the communist chinese government are morally the same -- they are not. that went on from there, if you missed it, check it out. it's 9:00 p.m. eastern, time for the great sean hannity. >> sean: listen, you know what? i love the upbeat message and i love when you stay with your family and friends and stay close, great job. good message. welcome to "hannity," we have never before, ever seen this level of mass madness, rage, insanity, hysteria, psychosis, and it's the same predictable people, top democrats, their willing allies, their state run tv, the media mob -- they will t give your president credit for absolutely nothing, even in the middle of a pandemic. not the travel ban, i think everyone needs to answer the question. in retrospect, was at a good choice by the president? that saved untold thousands of americans from immeasurable suffering, and also death. the historic medical mobilization, we watched the largest, fastest medical mobilization in the history of mankind unfold in four weeks right before

the chinese communist government doesn't want you to know. 're hid the chinese government doesn't want you to know they are hiding the truth and spinning tales about how great the handle that. we are looking for the truth. last week, we discussed two scientific theories about the origins of the virus. they come from the hand what market or did it come from an accidental week at a lab? steve was our guest, internationally recognized authority on china. it's his belief the virus jumped from back to humans in a poorly run research lab. >> china has collected 2000 dangerous viruses, including 300 coronavirus is, roughly we understand, many of which came from the intermedia fact that we are talking about is the original carrier of the virus. but if those viruses had been impact in caves 600 miles away, they would never have come in contact with people. jesse: why are they taking the backed out of the caves, bringing them to research facilities and investigating the viruses that have? what is the purpose of that kind of virus research? >> i think th

the chinese communist party has been totally unteut trul and hidden so many factors about this virus from the world, not just the united states of america. but we may have developed a herd immunity in some sense to this virus. that doesn't mean we can't protect those who are most vulnerable.us but we have 1.5 million people in the healthcare industry that will be losing their jobs. we have people who can't get to a hospital to check on -- they have may have cancer. they can't go in for regular checkups. we have seen hospitals across the country that could be filing bankruptcy. boston medical is furloughing 40% of its staff. when we are thinking about the health of our nation and the economic aspects that go along with that. steve: on the healthcare system and the disruption there and the cost of that. i noticed in the u.k. a senior cancer doctor just this week said in his view because of the disruption to treatment in the u.k., over a five-year period more people will die from the disruption in the u.k., just the cancer treatment than because of the coronavirus. and to your point her
