Trump's call with state governors about more help and support, desperately needing medical equipment and supplies, from federal government which is what the federal government is supposed to do in disasters didn't go very well. Trump said the government would front them, no details, but "the respirators, ventilators, all the equipment, they should try getting it yourselves".

11:47 Trump said today that the FDA approved Chloroquine, a malaria drug, for use in Corvid-19.

12:12 FDA says the drug has not been approved for covid-19 use.

Trump announced hospital ships would be deployed to hot virus zones. However, today report Comfort hospital ship won't be able to go to NYC in weeks. The ship is in maintenance. Pentagon now expediting the maintenance. US Mercy is getting maintenance and lacks a medical crew. It could even be months. Gosh, one might think trump always lies, about everything.

Meanwhile, where are the tests every state needs? KSTP, two hours ago, Minnesota now has 89 cases, a little over 3,000 people tested. That's the known cases. We don't know how many more have the virus and where they are. The virus could be northern counties but we can't know that without the damn testing. MN and other states are working hard to contain the virus but we need more tests and testing. Other than our state officials, etc. I don't think I'm the only one that doesn't trust trump's words and that we are mainly on our own.

The coronavirus doesn't care if you still trust and support trump. All of us, our children and grandchildren, are in the same boat.
