irwin from columbia university . my thanks to both of you. doctor, what was your view of the president's remarks and what is the actual facts and science americans need to know? >> it was reminiscent of, if you remember after hurricane in puerto rico, when the president was bragging about the fact his president had everything under control there were only 64 fatalities and turns out there were over 3,000. yesterday we were treated to the president with this irrational reassurance everything was under control. and within moments his own professional public health experts were contradicting what he was saying. >> let's get right to that. because when i sat at the news desk, you flagged that. and there is real time evidence of that. sometimes what's most important is to fact check and learn, not take them at face value. let's look at that. >> i don't think it's inevitable. it probably will, it possibly will. >> we do expect more cases. >> we're rapidly developing a vaccine. >> we can't rely on a vaccine over the next several months to a year. >>

professor of health and policy management, director for the national center of preparedness at columbia universityo have you here. >> thanks, chris. a talk about epidemic versus pandemic. people saying the genie is out of the bottle. >> when it starts to spread across a country is an epidemic. when it crosses borders it's a pandemic. it's already done. why the world health is delaying, they're calling it a's pandemic raises the economic markets and all that. it also really drives attention on trying to solve this problem. we do have some major problems now. >> i saw the ebola czar. >> i was advising him. >> you were advising him on that. he said, look, all the measures taken so far are a buy-time. >> yes. >> we'hat should we be doing? >> have an effective test that could be distributed worldwide. our cdc handed out testing kits. they had reagents. had to send them all back. there's no time line to send out appropriate kits. that's number one. >> we don't have a comprehensive test? >> the state doesn't have it, the state has it. >> gotcha. >> we need a way to prevent the disease which is obviously

three of the four, the doctor is here from columbia university and welcome back to the program.o you believe we are headed there? >> technically, we already have the criteria met. that is we have a new virus lethal that can be transmitted from person to person. it is cross international borders. so what we are waiting for now, someone say it has crossed into enough countries and enough volume we can make the official. >> bill: what does that mean, doctor? >> that means we can have draconian measures to control the epidemic or pandemic. for instance, try to imagine if we had to close the schools in new york city or any large city. that means the kids would have to go home, stay home, be watched by somebody. they could not be in groups because the whole idea is to keep them separated. that means mom or dad who may be working independent on the daily paycheck will have to be home. >> bill: okay, but we are not there. >> we are not there but i'm just saying -- >> bill: is that a prediction or expectation? >> neither. the trend would tell us we are going they are. we are not there ye

tucker: so we are almost out of time, jeff, but did you just say chelsea clinton is a -- >> at columbia universityshe had a piece on cnn.com just yesterday blaming this administration for not being prepared. the problem is -- >> tucker: what i thought you worked atle hedge fund or documt our phone maker, i didn't know she had had a job. how lower the standards? >> it is the columbia school of public health here in manhattan, so it's pretty troubling. she got her piece placed on cnn.com, so at least she has an outlet, but the w.h.o. doesn't want to hear from its critics. >> tucker: obviously not. if the higher education in this country is a joke and unfortunately that can have a really bad consequences, i hope we're not going to see them now. great to see you, thank you. >> good to see you. >> tucker: at california state at opera tonight over plans to transfer coronavirus patients there. chief breaking news correspondent trace gallagher has the latest on my story. >> she was blindsided when the state of california informed her that dozens of coronavirus patients would soon be housed there. costa me

analyst who was once a fellow at the institute of politics at the university of chicago in columbia university. elsie always a pleasure, welcome. >> you argue that the president is using his powers of clemency for entirely different reasons of presidents past. how do you mean? >> well, when i began writing this piece the first thing i wanted to do is just understand the exact spirit of the pardon that the forefathers wanted a president to have and the arguments that were being made. and one of the things that struck me was that when george washington who issued the first pardon talked about it, he said that the people who were convicted had turned away from their sins. when you listen to president trump talk about the people that he's pardoned over the years since he's been elected, he phrases it as if they never should have been convicted in the first place. that's why i wrote the piece. the difference is instead of saying the individual has paid their debt to society, he challenges the justice system by saying they should have never been convicted in the first place. that's a disturbing tren
