et cetera. then after that, anderson, i do a -- an equally long briefing with my economic team. a group of economists and folks who work with me in the white house. and we go over, in detail, what needs to be done, as well as what is actually being done. what the congress passed and what the trump administration has done, has not done, or is slow to do. >> personally, i know your son beau's family lives very close to you. >> oh, yeah. >> you can't see your grandkids, can you? >> well, no, but i -- i -- every single day, i speak to all five of my grandkids. either on the phone or i text with them. and -- and they're all over but two of them, beau's children, live a mile as the crow flies from our home. and they come walking through the woods. there is a path through the woods and through a neighborhood. and we sit on our back porch and they sit out on the lawn with two chairs there and we talk about everything that is going on in their day. and talk about being home from school. and who's driving

the governor of pennsylvania, et cetera. and i -- just so i know what's on -- republican governors, as well -- to see what their -- what's happening on the ground for them. i spoke with the governor of louisiana not long ago. i missed a call with him today. but my point is trying to keep focused on what's happening on the ground. >> so let's get to some questions, particularly about -- about the -- the administration's response thus far. president trump has said that repeatedly he wants the country or at least parts of the country opened up, as he said, as early as easter, which is just more than two weeks away. cnn town hall last night on the coronavirus crisis, dr. anthony fauci told dr. sanjay gupta and i he thought that was aspirational. the vice president used the same word today to describe it. aspirational. i am wondering what you think of the idea of opening up by easter, packing churches, and how long do you expect people will have to actually self-isolate? >> well, look, based on the data that i'm getting from medi

et cetera. now, it wasn't just journalists who concluded almost immediately after the 19th amendment that women's suffrage had been a failure. this is something that scholars tended to believe as well. for reasons i can talk more about, we actually have very, very little data about women voters in the period immediately after suffrage. as you probably are aware, citizens do not place pink and blue ballots into ballot boxes. so we don't actually from the official voting record have a way to know how men and women voted. there's one exception to that, which is illinois, which because of the unusual way they initially enfranchised women, actually did count men's and women's ballots differently. in 1916 and then in 1920. what that means is virtually everything that we know about how women voted comes from one state and two elections. before george gallup and everyone else is going to invent survey research in the 1930s and 1940s. we see this also in sort of popular histories. f frederick lew allen b

that doesn't make sense to me because people have to eat, travel, et cetera. doing it this way, all workforce, 50%, except essential services, we'll see if that slows w the spread. if it doesn't slow the spread, then we will reduce the number of workers even further. 50% can be calibrated. now, you could get to a point where you, you could get to 100% of workers stay home, besides essential services. that's what italy wound up doing. doing. and were at 50% now. what i would never shut down food, transportation, essential services. >> a new revenue forecasttw as u know i'm worse kisner, million dollars hit to the state. will that require i cut in spending as you had initially proposed? >> that something were going to have to work out in the budget. but as i said, the original estimates we did were before. they are, any reasonable person would say to lie. we will have to do a budget on the best protection we do and then we go from there. >> is a time to look at raising revenue? you are reluctant to do that in your proposed budget. >> look, you have businesses cl

. >> talk mike kennedy, lincoln, ragan, roosevelt et cetera. lincoln does not start as an abolitionist, they think he's too moderate, he's always compromising, he always know how far he could get ahead, but not outrun public opinion. and he is counseling during the politics at the end of the day he knew slavery was wrong. he doesn't deal at the emancipation proclamation and teed into. any weights and holds it for four months because there isn't a battle ninos as if he announces it beforehand is can be seen as a loser is ending slavery is a win to win the bore. you have to know what you're doing why you're doing it and you have to be tough enough to see it all the way through. and clinton, and i think all chief executives are capable, but clinton taught me to it have a northstar, and i then immerse myself in policy from him. which is why this book, and the other book i wrote her all about policy, that you have to have ideas to really illuminate what you're going to do. and then you have to be really tough enough to see those ideas all the way th

and that's the drive-throughs we put in place the hospital management et cetera. so our numbers should be higher. and they are. total number of positive cases now is up to 10,000. number of new cases has increased by 3,000. let's just go back in case you can't read as fast because i can't read. 6,000 in new york city. 1300 in westchester. 1200 in nassau. you see the westchester number is slowing. we did a new rochelle containment area. the numbers would suggest that that has been helpful. so i feel good about that. you see nassau increasing. you see suffolk uncreasing. so that's just the widespread increase that we have been anticipating. but our hot spot of westchester is now slowing. and that's very good news. new york city, it is the most dense environment. this virus spreads in density. that's what you're seeing in new york city. new york city obviously has many more people than any other specific location in the state. number of counties are increasing. you see the blue. i said to you early on, that blue is going to take over the whole state, just the way eve

that applies to kids in school, students in college, et cetera. so you really have to understand that the elderly and the aged are at particular risk. if we're going to do a suppression of people, that is, stay at home and not interact with other individuals, i think we would recommend first that the elderly and those with heart disease, various kinds of pulmonary diseases like copd or severe asthma or diabetes be quarantined and not interact with anybody else. >> doctor, it sound like you don't think we necessary need a so-called national quarantine right now. is that accurate? >> i think the national quarantine would be a suppressive effort and i don't think we need a national quarantine at this time. we know this disease has already taken an amazing toll on the economy, on businesses, on people out of work. we're not sure where we're going. there's a widespread panic among the public. i'm aware of that and i'm saying that anybody who has been exposed to somebody who has been proven to be positive should be kwau quarantined for 14 days. i expect

they have electric, they have climate control, et cetera. so this is going to be a big event and it's just going to be-- it will add another 4,000 beds and there's one in every borough in new york city, which was important to me. every borough knows that they have a facility and they're getting the same treatment that everyone else is getting. i mean, new york city outer borough personal. you don't know that classification unless you're from new york city. outer borough, queens, brooklyn, staten island, bronx, outer boroughs. manhattan is an inner borough, and they never call it an inner borough. leland: we'll continue to listen to governor of new york as he has an update. and on the lawn, the president has spoken before going to marine one. he's in the air. and listen to this and then the flight down to nor fork. >> is your timeline off the table now, sir? >> no, we're going to see what happens. we want to get our country back to work. the doctors, nurses, first responders, everybody doing a phenomenal job like theen good. the comfort, the

just for parents, small businesses, et cetera that are trying to plan. andrew cuomo: no, but all of the restrictions are statewide. they will track the trajectory of the disease. if we get that spread down, jesse, if we slow the spread and we can handle it in the healthcare system, we'll relax them as soon as possible. past data, china, south korea, shows that if you take more dramatic actions sooner, you actually reduce the spread and you recover faster, so more dramatic on the front side, the faster you get out of it. andrew cuomo: i've also spoken with elected officials all across the state. i've told them that this 50% mandatory requirement was going to be in place and we've heard nothing but support and i want to thank all of the local officials and i want to thank them for their cooperation. jesse: speaking of dramatic action though, what about shelter in place? can you explain why you're resistant to that and why that's no longer on the table for you? gov. cuomo: shelter in place, first, would have to be done, i don't believe any policy works unle

control,imate et cetera. we would do the same thing that we've done here successfully so it works. we know it's feasible. interior space, we have exterior space that we a temporary tent for supplies, equipment, et cetera. us coverage all across the downstate area with proximate facilities to every downstate. and frankly, is the best plan and we can put together execute in this time line. also have beyond the next temporary hospitals, if the white house grants that navy shipe have the comfort coming up that is going to be on its way soon. right here inbe new york harbor. it is a massive facility in and itself, 1,000 beds, 1200 medical personnel, 12 operating rooms. it has a pharmacy, it has a it should bend here on monday. inthat will also help us this quest. and then we're looking at converting and dormitories downstate. we're looking at city college dormitories, queens college. we have the dormitories because colleges are closed and the students have left so we dormitories that we can convert. hotels andlooking at nursing homes. we're looking at the marriott bridge hotel and a cal

well, then why all this running and testing, et cetera? because we want as few people infected as possible. but i think in some ways the anxiety is outpacing the reality of this situation. i think part of it is people don't know who to believe. and they are listening to all of these experts. i also think part of it is they don't trust what they're hearing from the federal government. i also think the federal government further complicates it. >> what are your constituents telling or asking of you? what clarity are they looking for, from you, the governor of new york? >> well, they're saying i don't know what to believe. the cdc says this, but this one says this, the bottom line question is what happens if i get the coronavirus? or my spouse or my child gets the coronavirus? and that's why the fundamental fact is most important, right? if you look at the number of cases we have in new york, we have 76 cases, we only have a handful who are hospitalized. if you look at johns hopkins, that has been tracing all of the coronavirus cases, 100,000

and it has operating rooms, et cete cetera. we'll use this to back fill and take pressure off the hospital. so a hospital can back fill onto this 1,000-bed facility. i hope it gets here monday, and i will greet it with open arms. i spoke to the president this morning. actually, just before i came in today. i apologize for being a few minutes late. and the president approved four new sites for emergency medical facilities. one in brooklyn at the port authority cruise ship terminal one in queens at aqueduct racetrack. one on staten island and one in the bronx at the new york expo center. i went and toured the sites yesterday. they are perfect -- well, perfect. none of this is perfect. they are appropriate and suitable to bring in large-scale medical facilities. they are 100,000 square feet, 120,000 square feet. they're open. they have electric. they have climate control, et cetera. so this is going to be a big advantage. this is going to be -- will add another 4,000 beds. and there's one in every borough in new york city, which w

it's in europe, the u.s., a couple countries in asia, korea and japan, south africa, et cetera. and what we found is deeply important. specifically, that the most credible source of information is actually my employer. 13-point type in media, and five points higher than in government. and so my employer plays a central role in credible information. the mainstream media is the most frequently referred to information source, followed by the cdc, w.h.o., et cetera. the most credible spokespeople are scientists, cdc and w.h.o., but also a person like me. so it reinforces this idea that trust is conferred horizontally or peer-to-peer. we find that there's a deep need for frequency of information contact. so if my employer is the most trusted, they want people to be communicating at least daily if not twice a day. so it needs to be fresh information. and about what? well, specifically what is going on at the company. so vacation or paid leave or what's happening in terms of your employee force or what your policies are on benefits. but it also are expecting there to be face forward fo

but 17 or 18 minutes later on cnn, et cetera, they were saying there's a future president of the united states. so the eerie similarity is, one speech brought them to the national attention. now, the second part of your question was about how reagan changed. reagan had been -- first he had grown up -- come of age as an adult as an fdr democrat, and he loved president roosevelt. and fdr, in a way you can hear fdr in his words throughout his life, although shifted toward a small government perspective. but the optimistic vision of the american dream. that sounded like president roosevelt was always present in reagan. now, when reagan married nancy, nancy's father was a far-right conservative, and when reagan started giving some peoples for ge and was on the radio, et cetera, he really -- he was really on the -- i'm not sure that we would say it as the right wing of the -- of the movement today, but it was then. and -- but then reagan ran for governor of california in 1966. and what became clear to people who studied him was that he governed as a pragmatist. i mean, he was a conservative,

it would be over the telephone, it would be skype, et cetera. but i'd ask you to seriously consider this. many people are doing extraordinary things during this public health crisis. i'd ask the mental health community, many of them are looking for a way to participate. this is a way to participate. if we get enough mental health professionals willing to volunteer their time, we'll set up a mental health electronic health center and we'll talk about that more in the next few days. what happens besides how long, what happens? the biggest question to me is what do we learn about ourselves through this? as a society we have never gone through this. thank god we haven't gone through a world war. we haven't gone through any great social crisis. here in new york we went through 9/11, which i think is relevant in terms of some feelings that are now -- people are experiencing. 9/11 transformed society. i was there, i was part of it. you were never the same after 9/11. you had a sense of cyril any aabili -- vulnerability that you never had before, which

we're talking 10,000, et cetera.h organization or the nih, or whatever, any of the other countries are saying, you have to expect that at the end of the day, 40% to 80% of the population is going to be infected. so the only question is, how fast is the rate to that 40% to 80%? and can you slow that rate so your hospital system with deal with it? that's all we're talking about here. if you look at the 40% to 80%, that means between 7.8 million and 15 million new yorkers will be affected at the end of the day. we're just trying to postpone the end of the day so we can deal with the capacity. again perspective, johns hopkins, this is not a science fiction movie. you don't have to wait until the end of the movie to find out what happens. johns hopkins has studied every case since it started. 284,000, 11,000 deaths, almost 90,000 recovers, 183,000 still pending, which trackses everybody we know in new york. the first case, a health care worker, 39-year-old female who was in iran, she went home, she never went to a hospita

facility, 70000 square feet again inside could be converted and has power and has climate control et cetera. we would do with the thing that we've done here successfully so we know it works and is suitable in building the interior of space we have exterior space that we could put up a temporary tent for supplies, equipment et cetera. that would give us coverage all across the downstate area with approximate facilities to every location downstate and frankly it is the best plan that we can put together and execute in this timeline. we also have beyond the next phase of temporary hospitals if the white house grants that request we have the navy ship comforts coming up that will be on its way soon and will be right here in new york harbor and it is a massive of civility in and of itself, 1000 beds, 1200 medical personnel and 12 operating rooms and a pharmacy and laboratory and it should be here on monday so that will also help us in this quest. then we are looking at dormitories and converting dormitories down state and we are looking at city college dormitories, queens college and we have the

like risk areas and hotspots et cetera. it's a bit strange that it was a research program funded by usaid but nonetheless it it's an interesting work but, unfortunately, it was just ended. >> there's one more thing we can do to reduce the risk of spread from animals to humans and that's combat climate change. i'm a change is driving this problem to some extent the not necessarily coronavirus specifically. why? because disease spreading vector flecked mosquitoes have wider range of habitat now. next i will speak and the united states will not just see it in the southern part of the u.s. but like the '80s egyptian mosquitoes can live further north. that's what effect. climate changes -- due to habitat destruction, due to migration patterns, climate change is also forcing refugees off the places into places where they're very, very vulnerable. we have people epidemic finally coming under control in the congo one of the risk factors there always was right across the border south sudan 1 million refugees in the camp that would'v

we implemented new york pause which stopped all the essential workers, et cetera. we have to start to think about new york forward. and steve cohen -- i've worked with for 30 years and now in the private sector. they're going to start to think about this. how do you restart or transition to a restart of the economy? and how do you dovetail that with a public health strategy. as you're identifying people who have had the virus and have resolved. can they start to go back to work? can younger people start to go back to work? because they're much more tolerant to the effect of the virus. so how do you -- you turned off the engine quickly. how do you now start or begin to restart or plan to restart of that economic engine? separate task, but something that we have to focus on. i offered my personal opinion yesterday. i separate my personal opinion from the facts. you can disregard my personal opinion. you can disregard facts. but they are still facts. i said don't be reactive, be productive, be proactive. a few people have said to me after it's all -- what did that mea

uk supermarket rationing, the government may hold court cases by video link et cetera.es on the mass hysteria surrounding the virus. it is rumours about possible tube is for it are literally going viral online, including sesame oil, rocks and sea lettuce. another big story making the papers is greeks saying no more. this is the new york times headline. angry locals are forming patrols to repel asylum seekers arriving from turkey. meanwhile, turkish president is expected to demand hundreds of millions of pounds from the eu he heads to brussels. but as the president of turkey in exchange for stopping the flood of migrants covering. and finally, if we go back to the virus briefly, the matter wanting us, don't be sheu matter wanting us, don't be shelf —ish, a great headline there. it's talking about all of us stockpiling. i need to explain that really, i'm sure you will know. we have priya lakhani back. we have priya the italian paper, north italy has been in lockdown, 14 provinces for some time now. just the practicalities of that. businesses closing down, pa rents that. b

we learn from the mueller report, exactly what the russians were doing with facebook, twitter, et cetera. do they still exist on those platforms in the platforms they still did that leading up to the platform in 2016. cement that seems like a very straightforward question but there's not a straightforward answer. the reason for that is this 2016 social media company got much better at identifying and taking down what they call ineffective coordinated behavior. there instances of when russian, iran, china are trying to manipulate the social media platforms to push a certain message. they've gotten very good at this. as a result, the adversary, the russians in this place have also adapted. one of the things we learned from the intelligence briefing is they usere these things to make it much more detect when is a twitter account a russian troll or box, when is it an american citizen? that of course is free speech protected by the first amendment. it's veryic difficult to know now and that's a huge challenge. what we are seeing is protects free speech afford interference. >> what did the rus

tested for a treatment against coronavirus et cetera. one of the drugs that's shown early promise was one of those. so it's not uncommon that we would go through and look at other drugs for other diseases to see if they have some effect on coronavirus. i can't specifically speak to the effects of this particular drig drug, hydroxychloroquine on covid 19. i'd have to leave that to my medical colleagues on the panel. but we would see that go through and test it at least in the laboratory and then want to test it in humans from there. the fda commissioner's words are true. they have not approved this for use for covid-19 so that would be breaking, you know, fda regulations to go ahead and prescribe it for covid-19. >> natalie, it seems like you want to jump in here. >> yeah, yeah, so i'm kind of gathering information from a lot of different sources right now, but as it stands right now, i understand that the university of minnesota is actively enrolling participants who fit this criteria. they would be individuals -- this would be not for t

people violating, really, some of these recommendations about staying out of large groups, et cetera. to people who are doing that, what do you say to the folks who don't seem to be taking these orders seriously? >> my message, and a conveyed it by video conference, is very clear. if you're a miami resident, stay home. if you're not a miami resident, go home. essentially everything here is closed. our non-essential businesses are closed, our beaches are closed, our parks are closed, our boat ramps are closed, our hotels are closed, so we're in a virtual state of lockdown here in the city, so there really isn't a reason to be congregating and what we're asking people to do is to listen to the medical experts that are telling us that we need to not congregate, as you said, and the fear here is that if we don't take these precautions seriously, our hospitals, our first responders, our nurses and our doctors are going to be overrun and they don't have the supplies, unfortunately, or the capacity to deal with a rush on the hospitals. >> yeah, that's the real concern. you hear that from so

, et cetera. what we really need to cancel is 2020. damn, it's been a rough three months. god bless and stay safe. and a major blow to march madness. it the will go on, but without fans in the stand. that, of course, is a huge revenue loss for tournament venues across the country. only essential staff and family members will be allowed to attend. >>> the world health organization now calling the spread of coronavirus a pandemic. california joined washington state in banning gatherings of more than 250 people. tom hanks and his wife tested positive for coronavirus. in an instagram post he said they contracted it in australia. the virus disrupting the work lives of millions. twitter now requiring its nearly 5,000 employees to work from home. other big companies inside and outside the hot spots said the same. >> starbucks will begin to limit seating and in some cases only the drive through will be open. an employee in washington state has tested positive among congressional staffers. five late night

, et cetera we go forward and lori loughlin, one of the big names to look going forward.october 5th trial group. evidently she we wanted to delay a little bit. does it matter which groups you're going in or would you rather be on your own? >> you certainly want to be engaged where someone engaged in more wrongdoing than you have. leland: i have to outrun you. >> that's a perfect andy. what you can do is sit in the back of the courtroom. i'd rather have my client who doesn't have -- a big of a problem and let them look at lori. many times juries will not want to nail everyone of the defendants and quite frankly with lori loughlin half a million dollars that was paid and they are claiming there's new evidence and the prosecutors are withholding evidence but the bottom line is -- >> leland: i want to get to that evidence. they continue to ask me to tell a fib and not restate what i told my clients as to where their money was going to the program, not the coach and that it was a donation and they wanted to be a payment. essentially they are asking me to bend the truth. that's

, et cetera, et cetera.t this president has put forward is extraordinary fiscally responsible. they are ones you'd expect to see from a good conservative government. they ballots within a reasonable number of years. they don't bounce right away. it's difficult to get the government to change direction in short order of time. they do balance. they also reduce entitlement spending without, without changing social security and medicare. by the way, the four budgets we've offered have been the largest reduction in mandatory spending in history, yet we didn't catch salsa good and medicare. how is that possible? it's possible because so much of the government is on automatic pilot and editor spinney. did you know your medicare taxes go to pay cratchit medical school tuition? you did know that. you thought medicare went to provide for your medicare. what happened was over the course of the last i guess 50 years medicare social security turn these huge trust funds that politicians when you know what, we have so much

people stay at home, people still need to be able to order food, et cetera.need to be able to shop. so you have to keep those essential services running. i understand that this is a burden to businesses. i get it. i understand the impact on the economy. but in truth, we're past that point as a nation. there is going to be an impact on the economy. not just here in new york but all across the country, and we're going to have to deal with that crisis, but let's deal with one crisis at a time, and let's deal with the crisis at hand. the crisis at hand is a public health crisis. once we get past that, then we'll deal with the economic crisis. there's an old italian expression that basically says, rough translation, a rich person is a person who has their health. everything else you can figure out. and that's true for society also. let's maintain the public health. we'll figure out the economy afterwards. we have consulted with a number of business organizations, and i want to thank them for their cooperation and their receptivity. the business council, the retail

. >> do you have the basic machines, et cetera, breathing machines here to take care of them? i want to ask about the 80% of cases that have been described as mild, because this is something folks at home, we keep hearing that listen, for the vast majority of the people, it will be very mild expression of the disease, symptoms, et cetera, but looking at the chinese data, some of those 80% or perhaps many of them did actually face more than what you would face with a common cold, et cetera, even cases of pneumonia. what did that data teach us? >> yes, so i think it's important to remember that 80% who is mild isn't even the sum total of the people who don't have severe disease. some people are going to be asymptomatic and never get sick at all, particularly young children, but yes, it is a severe disease. i don't think people should be thinking of this as just the common cold, and because it's a severe disease, you're going to see people even in the "mild" category with fever and with potentially developing pneumonia. it's also good to remember the categorization come in early

getting all this toilet paper, et cetera, is any of that justified? >> i think what we need to do is the same we do here in san francisco in an earthquake or fire area. just be wise. don't underplay it or overplay it. have enough food and have enough necessities to be able to isolate yourself for two weeks. but let's not go and hoard things. and by the way, get some food for the food banks. poor people don't have the money to hoard things. let's take care of our brothers and sisters. there can be love in the time of covid. >> dr. brilliant, dr. phillips, thanks to both of you. i appreciate you sharing news you could use with our viewers. >> we appreciate it very much, gentlemen. >>> our u.s. senator just moments ago left a briefing on coronavirus. they were briefed by the top u.s. health officials on it. one of those senators will join us. people ask me what sort of a person should become a celebrity accountant. and, i tell them, "nobody should." but, i just don't think you need a separate private plane. but i, but i want it! hey, buddy. what's the da

a little fearful, they're watching their retirement plans et cetera.> for short-term investors, there is a saying, if you jump in a time like this, like trying to catch a falling knife. short-term big guys, they're trading all the time. long-term investors, what you're seeing here is the same old thing, over the past 14 days, there have been only three up days. be wary of the up days. the background story hasn't changed. more coronavirus cases, we're all learning about this thing called social distancing. there are mass cancellations, schools are closed. there is still uncertainty about the availability of testing and what the virus does and how it behaves. and you have this sense that until this waving caution flag is off the track, you shouldn't be -- you shouldn't be playing this game here, trying to jump in and buy stocks, also this morning, something really important, goldman sachs basically announced that the end of the bull market is near, saying this, after 11 years, 13% earnings growth, 16% annualized bottom to top appreciation in the stock ma

we implemented new york pause which stopped the non-essential workers, et cetera. we have to start to think about new york forward. steve cohen and bill malrow, who i worked with for 30 years in the private sector, they're going to start thinking about this. how do you restart in the economy? and how do you dovetail that with a public health strategy? as you're identifying people who have had the virus and have resolved, can they start to go back to work? can younger people start to go back to work because they're much more tolerant to the effect of the virus? so how do you -- you turned off the engine quickly. how do you now start or begin to restart or plan to restart of that economic engine? separate task but something that we have to focus on. i offered my personal opinion yesterday. i separate my personal opinion from the facts. you can disregard my personal opinion. you can disregard facts, but they are still facts. i said don't be reactive, be productive, be proactive. somebody said to me after that, what did that mean? it happens to me often. look, this can

et cetera? >> no, so that's a separate thing. i'm talking about tests themselves. >> because we are, there is a respirator and that's another issue, not to pile on here but that's a whole other issue. >> yeah, that is a bit of an issue. and therefore, the social distancing measure, what they do, even if they don't reduce and they do reduce the overall number of cases, if they flatten out the spread of this epidemic. so if they decrease the pace of this outbreak, what it does is it lets the health system catch up. it doesn't result in acute shortages, for example, respirators and other things that are required to provide care for this disease. >> why do you think south korea has been so good at this? has been able to handle this as well as they have? >> well, to be fair, there are a smaller country but they're not a small country. they're a big country. and a few things. there was a scientist or public health official that responds, as i understand. they did really proactive testing and in order to do this testing sequentially on

we're waiving the department of health and dfs regulations about space, et cetera. this would be for short-term energy basis. but we want to plan from every hospital, if you use every available space, how many beds can you get in the hospital? we started that a few weeks ago. that is now coming to a critical point. with the more beds, you need more staff. so we're going to nursing schools, medical schools, asking retired doctors and nurses to come back in to service. supplies are a major issue. ppe, gloves, gowns, mask suppliers, i am now asking all product providers, all companies who are in this business, we will pay a premium for these products. if you are a business that doesn't manufacture these exact items, but if you have equipment and personnel and you believe that you could manufacture these items, they're not complicated. the mask is not a complicated item to make. a ppe gown is not a complicated item. gloves are not a complicated item. if you can make them, we will give you funding to do it. and we will give you funding to get the right equipment, to get

people are desperate for it, nurses, doctors, et cetera. but there is exponential use in ppe, but that's why. it's because of the virus and number of people in the hospitals with the virus is now so large that the only smart course of conduct is to assume that everyone has it. >> governor, you talk to the president just about every day now, has he picked up in the phone or in any conversations said governor, what's happening with all the masks? have you had chance to have this conversation with him? >> no. no. but honestly there are a lot bigger issues than speculating about whether or not somebody is stealing ppe out of a hospital, right? we have a tremendous struggle in this state and in other states on how to deal with this, the capacity on the hospital system. remember people think new york, that's new york. there's nothing unique about new york here. there's nothing unique about new yorkers' immune system. there's no american immune from this virus. all you're seeing is because of the density, the intensity of the place, the virus comm

yesterday we closed the bars, the gyms, et cetera.u would continue to close down things such as businesses. italy got to the point where the only things they left open were grocery stores and pharmacies. those were essential services, but they closed down everything else. we're not there yet, but i am telling you we have to get down that rate of spread. because whatever we do on the hospital side, we cannot accommodate the numbers, that demand on the hospital system. so, again, we just enacted rules yesterday, we're not enacting any other rules today, but it is very possible because the numbers, as you'll see in a moment, are still going up. whatever rules we come up with will be statewide rules. hopefully it could be done with our surrounding states, because the best way to do this is uniformity, no shopping among states, among cities, among counties. everybody lives with the same rules so we don't have people on the road going back and forth trying to game the system. at the same time you're trying to reduce the numbers coming into

i think where the president wase wrongfully, et cetera.he really believes that, he should call for an investigation and say i think ppe equipment is being stolen. i don't believe that the true at all. people are desperate for it, nurses, doctors, et cetera. but there is a big use in the ppe but that's why, because of the virus and the number of people in the hospitals with the virus is now so large that the only smart course of conduct is to assume that everyone has it. >> governor, you talked to the president just about every day now. has he picked up the phone or in any or your conversation hey, governor, what is happening with masks? have you had this chance to have this conversation with him? >> no. no, lawrence, we -- there are a lot bigger issues than speculating about whether or not somebody stealing ppe out of a hospital, right? we have a tremendous struggle in this state and in other states on how to deal with this, how to deal with the capacity on the hospital system. and remember, people think, well new york, that's new york. th

, et cetera. recovery is 100,000, right, roughly and pending 300,000. but recoveries are recoveries. you get it. people that i know, they stay home for two weeks and they then test negative. you can test negative in two weeks, three weeks, one week after you have it. that is going to be the vast overwhelming number of people. the biggest number when this is done and we can actually go back and test, the biggest number is going to be people who had it who resolved and we never knew they had it. that's going to be the biggest number. the reason we want to get to that test is because when you talk about restarting the economy, you have a test that says you, andrew, were exposed to it in february. by the way, you're recovered and you have the antibodies. go back to work. i'm sorry, i cut off jesse. when i cut off jesse, he gets annoyed at me and i pay for the next week. i'm kidding. >> today a third of the icu beds that are currently available in the state, do we still not have a figure on just how mu

there's swabs, there's extraction, et cetera, et cetera. there are shortages on many pieces of it. >> dr. sanjay gupta is next. >>> plus a tale of two patients. both of them are out front. >>> and one in five people unemployed, it could happen, and this is according to trump's treasury secretary. will it? without further intervention? because if it does, you're looking at something as bad as or worse than the great depression. i'm going to talk to the man who oversaw the bailouts during the great financial crisis. he's a sitting member of the fed. ok everyone! our mission is to provide complete, balanced nutrition... for strength and energy! whoo-hoo! great-tasting ensure. with nine grams of protein and twenty-seven vitamins and minerals. ensure, for strength and energy.

you can restrict travel, et cetera. i am not in favor of quarantining the city. i'm not in favor of imprisoning people, but obviously everybody wants the same thing, reduce the density. because density is where this virus communicates and transfers, and keep people as quote-unquo quote-unquote isolated as possible. >> because the number of cases especially in new york state are rising dramatically, and it's the same story. it's the same story in neighboring states as well. i think 532 cases so far just today in new york state. will you get to the point, governor, where a situation warrants what washington state is for example now doing, a shelter in place order? >> yeah, the shelter in place is little deceptive. it sounds like you are imprisoned in your home, but that's not actually what it is. it says you can go to the doctor, go to the store and you can go outside for exercise. so i am not going to imprison anywhere individual mobility and liberty. it's a cornerstone of who we are, and there are ways to do this without -- without that. the real question, wolf,

it has climate control, et cetera. we will do the same thing that we've done here successfully.we know it works. we know it's feasible. building the interior space. we have exterior space that we could put up a temporary tent for supplies, equipment, et cetera. that would give us coverage all request, we have the navy ship "comfort" coming up that is going to be on its way soon. it's going to be right here in new york harbor. it is a massive facility in and of itself. 1,000 beds, 1,200 medical personnel, 12 operating rooms and a pharmacy and it has a laboratory. and it should be here on monday. so, that will also help us in this quest. and then we're looking at dormitories and converting dormitories down state. we're looking at city college dormitories, queens college. we have the dormitories because the colleges are closed and the students have left. so, we actually have dormitories that we can convert. we're also looking at hotels and nursing homes. we're looking at the marriott brooklyn bridge hotel and a nursing home called brooklyn center. so, as you can see, we're looking

, et cetera.why? because we're hunting positives. we're hunting positives so we can isolate them and reduce the spread. you're more likely to get positives in a high-positive area. right? set up a drive-through in the bronx versus set up a drive-through in chatauqua county, you're going to get more positives in the bronx. that's what we want. but anyone anywhere in the state, you have symptoms, you're concerned, you can walk into any hospital, that hospital can get a test performed. number of positive cases, we're up to 30,000. number of new cases, 5,000. again, you see the numbers. 13,000. i'm sorry, 17,000, new york city. 4,000 in westchester. 3,000 in nassau county. relatively, westchester, we have dramatically slowed what was an exponential increase. so again, on the good news side, can you slow the rate of infection? yes. how do you know? look at what we did in westchester. that was the hottest cluster in the united states of america. we closed the schools. we closed gatherings. we brought in

says, listen, maybe as soon as next week we could begin to relax some of these social distancing, et cetera. we know the experts say that's too soon. why is that too soon? >> there's a couple of reasons. first of all, you do have some realtime data now around the world, looking at places around the world that have gone through this curve, jim. china and south korea are the ones people often point to. if you look at the time frame over there in terms of how long some of these measures needed to be in place, you're talking closer to two months rather than two weeks. i'm not saying it necessarily needs to be that time, but i think most people, most public health experts i've spoken to, all the ones i've spoken to have said this does need to continue for a period of time. we haven't really even started to see the benefits of the social distancing as of yet. that's the second thing, jim, as you and i have talked about, i think a few times, is that the picture we're seeing right now in terms of numbers, in terms of how widespread this is, it's sort of from two weeks ago. it's kind of like looking

that's why i'm staying at home, et cetera. what we also see is that right now we're in quite unique position that a lot of the status quo has been falling apart, taken apart by the coronavirus and our responsnseso that and now it's time for us to really think about our responses to thehe crisis, economically, socially, politically. meaning, how can we rebuild societieies and economies i in a just and fair and ecologicacally sustainable way. that is obvioususly quite a a ce that we shouldn't and i guess mustn't miss. anchor: thank you. >> thanks. anchor: to some of the other stories making news around the world. the head of the international monenetary funund says the coronaviruss outbreak has plungd the global economy into recession. she says emerging countries will need $ $2.5 trillion in finananl supppport to the get them throuh the crcrisis and warns that nations are under immense pressure because of lost business and reduced e exports. oil p prices end the week at new lows. brent crude plunged 7% on friday to its lowest va

we're talking 10,000, et cetera.ou look at any world health organization or the nih or whatever, any of the other countries are saying, you have to expect that at the end of the day, 40% through 80% of the population is going to be infected. so the only question is how fast is the rate to that 40% to 80% and can you slow that rate so your hospital system can deal with it. that's all we're talking about here. if you look at the 40 to 80%, that means between 7.8 million and 15 million new yorkers will be affected at the end of the day. we're just trying to postpone the end of the day. so we can deal with the capacity. again, perspective, johns hopkins, this is not a science fiction movie. you don't have to wait until the end of the movie to find out what happens. johns hopkins has studied every case since it started, 284,000, 11,000 deaths, almost 90,000 recoveries, 183,000 still pending. which tracks everything we know in the state of new york. our first case, first case, health care worker, 39-year-old female who was

bounds. >> and talking again about the the concentric circles of trust between the social media, et cetera. one of the reports from the findings showed that employers, again, are a go-to source for information in the days of coronavirus and that makes sense because if you have an eight-hour workday then you essentially spend a third of your existence at your working with your colleagues or interacting with your employer. but one of the interesting findings from the trust barometer, out of the 10 countries listed for service, nine of 10 of them have national health care and so, you have two concentric sources there where you have national health care systems with the government essentially, as well as employers who are kind of sources of information. and do we see them coordinating enough? how would you, a, advise an employer to navigate that system or communicate with the government about what they need in terms of from the health care system in their country? and how would you advise the government on how to address employers if the health care system is partly or-- in part or wholly natu

but there are parents who have the means to get child care, et cetera, or stay home from work, but most people don't. you have over 100,000 kids in this public school system who, as you know, are homeless. they rely on the school for food, for meals. what is the call that makes you close schools or not? >> those kids, some are homeless, some are doubled up and tripled up in apartments for clarity. a vast amount of parents in any crisis don't want to see schools closed. safety first, but they depend on the schools. they're a safe place for kids. and they want their kids to continue being educated. it's a high bar for closure. another thing that makes sense, if you ever a situation in a school, a temporary closure. >> of one or two but not all of them. >> a specific targeted closure for a limited period of time, because here's the conundrum. if you're closing, waiting to hear on a test and the test comes back negative, then, of course, you will keep that school open. even in the case of a positive -- our department of health is renowned for this, who tracks specific contacts. if a child o

by the time he becomes president he has tell prompters, et cetera. when he first starts running for office first he was his very own private speechwriter. i have seen copies of the 5 by 8 cards he would give his stump speech off of. and what they had were key words. and the stories that are told about reagan and his staff were that he -- they were republican operatives of their time, so they were in the bar at the hotel at night. and people would ask, well, where's ronny? and ronny was up in his room working on the cards. he was getting his stump speech until it worked just the way he wanted it to. that's his empathy with the audience but his sense of getting the words right. it's the ideas most important but getting the ideas about the words right. and the thing that's amazing about the delivery is that in order to deliver the speech he needed to be able to look at the cards to remind himself where he was. and by the way, that also allowed him to go off text. if something happened and he could respond. but he also needed to look at the audience. so

what if we brought in more staff, et cetera? we also have a number of efforts going on on finding more staff, more doctors, et cetera. not just for the surge capacity but also for the additional facilities we may open. these are the new number of tests. we're up to 7,000 tests, so it's a dramatic increase. 1,600 new tests. what happens when the testing capacity increases? the number of positives increase by definition. so the number of new cases has gone up 221 to 950 cases. and you can see new york city is increasing, westchester is still disproportionate to the population of westchester. that still represents the new rochelle cluster. nassau 109, suffolk 63, rockland 16, albany 12, orange at 11, dut dutchess 10, monroe 9, ulster 7. number of cases, new york city and westchester, some in nassau, some in suffolk. but you'll see the cases rise in the most dense areas. because that's where people are transferring the virus among themselves. counties with new cases today, allegheny, onondaga, ontario and wyoming. you see the spread
