senate, kentucky senator rand paul. and response from the government and white house, some say not enough. some comparing the fight for medical supplies among the states as we "the wild west." >> we are competing against other states. in some ways we're savaging other states. i'm trying to buy masks competing with california, illinois, florida. that's not the way it should be, frankly. >> we're all competing against each other. this should have been a coordinated effort by the federal government and the national defense authorization that the president has to, you know, to essentially push this manufacturing, really it hasn't gone into effect in any way and so, yes. we're competing against each other. we're competing against other countries. you know, it's a wide, a wild west, i would say, out there. >> all right. let's turn now to cnn's lauren fox on capitol hill. so, lauren, we just heard that senate majority leader mitch mcconnell is delaying a key vote. what are you hearing? why? >> reporter: it's very significant.

with rand paul testing positive, several senators are in self-quarantine, none available to vote.nd first attempt to move this enormous aid package forward failed with all democrats voting against it and democrats say they want to make significant changes all of this leaves the fate of this bill uncertain. >> thanks to kelly o'donnell for that report. >>> as the coronavirus continues to spread, death toll in europe as surged again despite lockdowns. more than 13,000 deaths worldwide, 5,000 in italy, most in any country but spain and france not far behind. italy is taking more extreme measures, banning all travel including internally as the u.k. races to pass stricter antivirus laws ali, what is the latest from europe >> horrifying scenes continue to play out in italian hospitals. death toll almost 5,500, highest in the world and italy has about 60,000 positive cases it is already a country in strict lockdown, even more draconian measures are being taken in attempt to slow the spread of the virus. travel within the country has been banned. all nonessential business activity will be

but i like to understand exactly where rand was and what the risk is. everybody ought to be talking about what their risk is and whether they need to be quarantined. that's what i did, as soon as i found out that somebody had been tested positive with the delegation that i was around, i called the physician at the senate. and he said, look, you probably don't have high risk. and i said, well, i decided, i can't expect everybody else to quarantine if i'm not going to do it. so i said, i'm not going to take a chance. >> good to hear you stayed put there in d.c. and there have been others, other colleagues who have expressed real concern now. others who may have been in a lunch today, working meetings over the last few days with senator paul. what concerns can you identify with? >> yeah, i think everybody is going to have to find out how close they were to him. i mean, they'll need to talk to the senate physician and their own physician and make a decision for themselves. i hope that, you know, the senate continues to work the way it's supposed to work, an

senator, condition ken's rand paul has tested positive. cally o'donnell has that story. >> reporter: tonight, coronavirus gets personal for the u.s. senate condition ken republican rand paul announced he tested positive he is feeling fine and is in quarantine colleagues said paul used the senate gym, attended meetings, and a group lunch. tonight, senators of both parties question their own exposure. >> we were in lunch together with rand and i hope he is doing very well. >> reporter: senator paul, an eye surgeon, is a friend of the president. >> he has been a great friend of mine he has always been there when we needed him, when the country needed him as you know he just tested positive. >> reporter: paul's diagnosis injegts uncertainty into the senate's ability to deliver economic relief paul was the only senator to vote against the first emergency coronavirus aid package a few weeks ago. leaders hunkered down this weekend in negotiations a senate vote expected tomorrow. >> but this is a pretty solidly bipartisan proposal. >> reporter: de

they read: senator rand paul has tested positive for covid-19. feeling fine and he is in quarantine. he is asymptomatic and was tested out of an abundance of caution, due to his extensive travel and events. he was not aware of any direct contact with any infected person. he expects to be back in the senate after his quarantine period ends and will continue to work for the people of kentucky at this difficult time. ten days ago our d.c. office began operating remotely. virtually no staff has had contact with senator rand paul. that's certainly some good news there. senator rand paul becoming the latest member of congress to test positive for the coronavirus. we knew that this was certainly a possibility, when you have this many members of congress traveling and flying from all parts of the country to capitol hill. leland: brings up a couple important issues. number one, voting, because they have to vote in person, by law, on things, and you've got this huge couple trillion dollars spending bill coming up. there's questions about what the house is

paul and mario diaz balart and ben make atoms all have put themselves under quarantine which with rand paul testing positive 3 who work closely and even sit next to him in the senate those are senators cory gardner mike lee and mitt romney all 3 of place themselves under quarantine after learning of paul's positive test results paul's team tweeting earlier that they expect him to be back after his quarantine period is over and that 10 days ago his d.c. office actually started operating remotely so no staff has been in contact with paul but there were reports that before paul got his test results he was actually using the senate gym using the senate pool to which paul's team also responded tweeting that he had 0 contact with anyone and went into quarantine and the that the accusations are completely false and irresponsible not also breaking this afternoon an announcement from minnesota minnesota senator any club which are tweeting that her husband has actually tested positive for corona virus and that she is going to continue working in the senate to do all she can to get help to the am

isolating after senator rand paul tested positive for coronavirus. it is possible the white house is trying to frame that. . what that means going forward. what it means as many, many americans are waiting for news to see what will come from this large stimulus package which could be affected by this unforeseen circumstance with the senators diagnosis. as we look ahead tom, this is something that there isn't final language on it. the democratic side has said, they still have sticking points they're trying to work out. a lot remains to be seen. they may be working very late into the night. not just what will go into the final bill but also, what it might mean if so many senators wouldn't be on capitol hill for these votes. what could happen. there is no vote in the senate. we don't have an answer. >> let me ask you this. we don't know what will happen in terms of the senators that may have decided to quarantine themselves. which could delay the procedural vote and the vote on the package. putting that to one side, which is extremely important, do we k

jerry maran said he saw rand paul in the swimming pool today. he was in close proximity with others during the senate lunches. and with the future of the stimulus bill far from certain, we're seeing how this virus is taking a toll on b our economy. there is no denying it. economists at goldman sachs predict when the totals come out, the number of americans who filed for unemployment last week will be more than 2 million people. the highest level on record in this country. we need our leaders. our government to step up and help people. won't get their next paycheck. we need paem people to take action to prevent further damage to the economy. for anyone who tries to tell you all of this disruption is overkill, for anyone thinks it is too high, a price to pay, just ask any of the more than 32,000 people in this country who have tested positive what they think. this is an emergency. we're seeing right now what happens when you don't take the virus seriously. when you waste precious time and play politics passing around the dangerous lie that the cor

senator rand paul, positive for the coronavirus. we'll be right back.mpany. but think of us as a "protect your family as it grows" company. a "put enough away for college" company. and a "take care of your employees" company. we're a "help you ride the ups and downs of the market" company. and when it's time to retire, we're a "we've been guiding you toward this all along" company. think of us as all these companies, and more. principal. retirement. investments. insurance. the network has to be prepared to absorb whatever is going to come its way. we're always preparing. make sure that the network is working all the time. we are constantly looking at it, we're constantly monitoring. we take that responsibility very seriously. the most rewarding thing about the work we do is whenever we see a customer able to communicate back to their loved ones. that is why we do what we do. (vo) we're relentlessly committed to the network. so in times like this, we can all stay connected to work, school, and most importantly, to each other. this...whole world ...of peo

senator rand paul got tested. rand paul went to an event on march 7th and on march 15th, the two individuals he said he did not have contact with had contracted coronavirus and then diagnosed having covid 19. out of abundance of caution, senator paul decided to get tested about toxic six or seven ago. what we are learning is that in that time frame, those 6 or 7 days since he got tested, he has been up on capitol hill attending gop lunches and reported earlier today spotted at the senate gym. that led to some concerns from republican colleagues, if you got tested from coronavirus and everyo even if you were asymptomatic , you should not attend those gop lunches, you should have been home waiting for the outcome of that test. we'll have more comments from his colleagues. as i was talking to lawmakers today including senate erlor li graham who have been tested and found out he did not have coronavirus. it is common sense while you wait for your test, you stay-at-home. as we know and our doctors on our air have been

we have just learned moments ago that senator rand paul of kentucky has tested positive for coronavirus. he's the first u.s. senator to test positive. this comes as congress is racing to finalize a coronavirus economic rescue bill as the cases continue to rise. speaker nancy pelosi seems to be saying there is no deal. the speaker was asked about a vote on the bill, expected tomorrow. pelosi said there is no bipartisan deal right now, and that she would introduce her own measure. senate majority leader mitch mcconnell says the talks are still under way and they will vote on the bill tomorrow. >> we're still talking about those issues where there is still some disagreement. make no mistake about it, we'll be voting tomorrow. the wheel has to stop at some point and i don't want any of you to buy the notion this isn't a thoroughly bipartisan proposal already. >> easy to see why we need relief. there are more than 29,000 cases of coronavirus nationwide including 369 deaths. the united states now has the world's fourth highest number of confirmed cases. according to johns hopkins, that puts u

no staff has had contact with senator rand paul. mitt romney reacted to the diagnosis of his colleague. >> i am very unhappy to hear he has been diagnosed. a couple of things. fair and happy to hear rand paul was diagnosed with covid-19. he is compromised given health conditions in the past and we will be praying for him. all of the senators are going to seek medical advice as to what action we should take to make sure we do not spread this virus ourselves. reporter: you are altogether friday. >> we were in lunch together with rand and i hope he is doing well. we have to determine if any of us should self-quarantine. thank you. announcer: it is easy to follow the federal response to the coronavirus outbreak at c-span.org/coronavirus. track the spread throughout the u.s. and the world with interactive maps and charts. watch briefings and hearings with public health specialists anytime, unfiltered, at c-span.org/coronavirus.

but rand paul did just about everything wrong personally.u're being tested for the coronavirus and if if you're still awaiting your results. he did what everyone has said on this show the worst. he got tested because he suspected it and then rather than self quarantine which we advise everyone to do after a test until they get the result, went out and he literally spread it. and i think your analogy with the teenage brain and behaving like an irresponsible teenager is right. and you're also right the senate is a perfect petri plate, even better than florida because everyone is together. they have to negotiate and sit side by side down there on the senate floor. this is a very bad situation. totally irresponsible. we should be looking to our lektlek elected officials to be models gf behavior. we have a lot of politician that's are not models. we have president trum thap gets up at the news conferences and you notice behind him, i can't tell you how many e-mails and phone calls i got, what are all those people doing behind him? i thought we we

i get why people are going to rand paul and going, you can litigate the afghan war down the road. this isn't the time to do that. i get the collective belief in that. i'm just telling you as an observer there are quite a few united states senators who believe they're in their seat because others didn't speak up the last time there was this hurry up and shove money out the door. i think whether it's rand paul on the right and elizabeth warren and some others on the left who want specific parameters, when you send these money to these industries, i do think you're going to see the senate not move at warp speed because there's too many senators with too many memories of the last time we shovelled -- we were shoveling money out the door that they're going to -- a lot of people's own politics is going to influence this. >> except this is the first tranche. this is the money that was supposed to help people with paid leave. >> this seems like a silly time to care about your idealogical urges. i'm not saying this is a good idea politically for any of these folks. i'm just telling you you

>> and we, of course, wish senator rand paul, first senator to test positive for coronavirus, we wish him a speedy, speedy recovery and get back to work sooner rather than later. lauren, thank you very much. >>> there's more breaking news coming into "the situation room" right now. the chancellor of journalny angela merkel, she herself is now in quarantine. our senior international correspondent fred pleitgen joins us on the phone. what do we know? >> reporter: extremely dramatic announcement. the german government saying angela merkel got a routine vaccination friday and later the doctor that gave her that vaccination, administered the vaccination tested positive for coronavirus. now, the german government spokesman said angela merkel is going into home quarantine, or self-quarantine. they say that she's going to be pontously tested for coronavirus, because they believe that because this contact was only on friday at this early stage tests would probably not be conclusive about whether or not she herself has coronavirus. they say that she is going to be doing a work load much as she

that may be difficult because there are five republicans that are currently self-quarantined because rand paul tested positive for coronavirus. those first two votes will happen at noon and shortly after, some boats up and held open for half an hour or so to make sure senators are not getting close to each other. you cannot do vote by videoconference or anything like that. finally, the third vote will be a redo of the boat from yesterday and be a vote to end debate -- to begin debate on the package and give another 30 hours of debate on this trillion dollar plus package. that would essentially kick the vote to later this week. we don't expect passage today but to tent -- but potentially some procedural events months to make sure the package gets out of the senate to the house and eventually to the president's desk. host: any lawmakers saying they are concerned about taking a final vote later in the week when the markets responded immediately to the vote last night? guest: this is something majority leader mcconnell was talking about last night immediately after the procedural vote failed.

quite frankly, rand paul testing positive and amy klobuchar's husband getting very sick. and so this is not feeling real until our colleague passed away a couple of days ago made it 1,000% real to me, and having people that you know get sick and diagnosed and being scared about getting sick is going to be a lot more real for the lawmakers and the reality is a lot more real for all of u because that is what is coming. >> and the tweets paying tribute to him were among the most beautiful ones of anyone that we work with. so thank you, garrett haake, and i am glad to have you from anywhere and any beat that we send you on. stay safe. thank you, nicolle. >>> and after the break, who do the american people believe is doing a good job handling the coronavirus, and it is not the president at least not universally, and not the congress. we will answer that next. not e congress we will answer that next. ancestry...gave us context. this...whole world ...of people ...adventurous people... and survivors. it was interesting to think about their lives... their successes... and...their

we can't figure out who can go back to work. >> exhibit a, rand paul. >> think about rand paul.guideline, if he had not acted horribleably in the eyes of every single medical adviser in the white house and taken this test, the senate -- the entire senate would be infected right now. people say, we don't really need to test globally. we don't really need to have widespread testing for all americans. well, they don't understand. you can't open the economy until that happens. the markets aren't going to move again until we bend that curve. and like south korea, you do it by testing. and speaking of testing, i want to bring in "morning joe's" chief medical correspondent, dr. dave campbell. let's talk about what is really important. the fda approving a test from this weekend, that somebody can get the test and actually get their results in 45 minutes. i have friends who, most likely, have the virus. that have taken the test, and have been waiting for five days. they still don't know their results. talk about this test and how widespread this could be in america. >> this is the most e

but when it comes to rand paul a lot of people are saying that you know why wasn't he tested and he's actually facing a lot of backlash especially on twitter you know he was tested because they said that to believe that a lot of people that he was in contact with might have tested positive as well one of those people who was actually just tested him along and his wife vice president mike puns. tested negative but they want to have tested rand paul and it's one of those things where they're saying that why is it that is that a congress to be a senator can write a test with his showing no symptoms whatsoever but you know you had a dad who was like new york my daughter has 104 degree fever and i can't get her a test it was a lot of backlash is exactly the anger coming from the american public towards politicians on capitol hill so are there any similar to similarities rather between what's coming out of the democrats and the republicans yes so one of the things is actually the amount of money that each of american would get it's just one of the things that's in both of these bills but ag

information that rand paul became the first u.s. senator to test positive for coronavirus. we're getting more information about why he got tested. essentially why it took so long to find out that he had coronavirus. but my colleague jake tapper is learning tonight that essentially he decided to get tested pause he went to an event where some attendees were later found out to have coronavirus. now he never had any interaction or or direct interaction with those individuals, but out of an abundance of caution and if you remember in 2019 he had surgery. he had part of his lung remove ed. he wanted to ensure he was protected. so he was tested and found out he has coronavirus. two of his colleagues have elected to self-quarantine out of an abundance of caution. >> more than 32,000 people have tested positive in this country. at least 410 people have died. natasha has the president's p n plans to help states with the most patients. >> the federal government will be funding the cost of deploying national guard units. >> it sends troop s s

about what's what's going forward i mean we know that some of the people quarantine for example was rand paul right. did that obviously that probably impacted the vote and i think a lot of people also want to know fair and if he was asymptomatic why was he tested so here is one of the things that i actually forgot to mention too with this new bill a lot of people are saying that this is actually a big power move brought forth by speaker pelosi to get something done asap but when it comes to rand paul a lot of people are saying that you know why wasn't he tested and he's actually facing a lot of backlash especially on twitter you know he was tested because they said that to believe that a lot of people that he was in contact with might have tested positive as well one of those people who was actually just tested him along and his wife vice president mike puns who tested negative but they want to had tested rand paul and it's one of those things where they're saying that why is it that is that a congress to be a senator can write a test with showing no symptoms whatsoever but you know you

. >> yesterday senator republican of kentucky, senator rand paul revealed he had tested positive for the virus. today as he was being criticized for being tested despite having no symptoms, he insisted more americans should be able to be tested. senator paul, who we hasten to add is a doctor, had used the senate gym and had been in close contact with senators while waiting for his results. one of those senators is mitt romney. here's how his close friend, the president, reacted to the news yesterday that romney is in quarantine. >> romney's in isolation? >> yes. >> gee, that's too bad. go ahead. >> did i detect sarcasm there, sir? >> no. none whatsoever. >> so there was that. today in the briefing room, dr. deborah birx was asked about rand paul's decision not to self-isolate while waiting for test results? >> each person has to be responsible in the way that they decrease their interaction with others, the six feet. and you're all very social distanced, so thank you. but also assuming that everyone that you're interacting with could be positive. >> there was also a notable absence a

very unhappy to hear that rand paul has been diagnosed with covid-19. best.im the very he is compromise given the health conditions he has had in the past. we will be praying for him and thinking about him. all the senators will seek medical advice as to what action we should take to make sure we don't spread this virus ourselves. reporter: you are all at lunch together. romney: we have to determine whether any of us should self-quarantine as a result of being in the same rule. thanks. sen. kaine: 80 -- sen. kaineenn edy: i have not. i'm very sorry that rand has tested positive. i'm told he is a symptom that it. i hope that is the case.

senator, rand paul, has tested positive for covid-19. he was at the senate gym this morning, so that's causing all sorts of problems. >> right. >> there are just a whole lot of things going on here. the president feels that something should happen in congress. democrats are saying that there is not enough in that bill that goes to either working people or poor people who are being caught at home, don't have employment insurance, who work for companies that have shutdown. what do you take from what you heard? >> you know, ali, i have been off the last week so i've been experiencing the roller coaster of corona like a lot of our viewers, fear of unknown, fear of getting the difficult advice, fear of someone i know getting the disease. there was nothing in that press conference to ease any of those fears. donald trump walked into that room with a mission probably from his communications staff to fix the boo-boo from friday when he lashed out at our colleague peter alexander who asked what he had to say to people who are afraid. he went out

get tested, rand paul. he didn't have any symptoms.thing to say you don't have to get tested and then to see the rich, famous, celebrities, politically connected getting tested anyway, that sends a terrible message as well. to your point, you have to test for two reasons. one, health care workers want to know if they're dealing with an infectious person or not because they don't need the protective gear if it's just some other infection or respiratory problem. that lets them share. the other reason is people are much more likely to self-quarantine if they know they're positive. that's human nature. of course we should all self-quarantine, but you're more likely to do it if someone says you've got the virus. >> short term, are you optimistic, worried, fearful? >> i guess i'm somewhere between fearful and worried. i'm not optimistic. i don't think in the u.s. the response has been what it needed to be. it wasn't fast enough. i'm worried that some other countries are already way behind where they need to be. i'm not sure italy's going to
