Referring the virus as the 'enemy' and the fight as a 'war,' Pres. Trump says, 'One day we'll be standing up here and say, 'Well, we won.''
Trump and top officials also urged Americans not to hoard supplies or seek non-urgent medical care as the health care system expects exponential growth of cases in the coming weeks.
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin speaks during a press briefing with the coronavirus task force, at the White House, March 17, 2020."We looked at many different models," Trump said,"and the model we have is, we want to save a lot of lives. If we get too steep in that curve, we'll lose a lot of lives."
"It will probably be several weeks and maybe longer until we know we're having an effect," he said, candidly explaining the curve must be studied in a broader context."I would not put us to test every single day, 'wait a minute, it is going up and is it working?' That would be misleading, if we are doing that."
Vice President Mike Pence called on construction companies to donate N95 masks in order to address shortages. When Trump was again whether he was considering imposing domestic travel restrictions, he said,"It's possible. We'll see how it goes."
