Trump warns against panic amid news of first U.S. coronavirus death

President Donald Trump preached calm on Saturday after the first U.S. death from coronavirus was confirmed in Washington state and the government ratcheted up travel warnings for several countries where the virus is spreading.

Asked if he regrets referring to a coronavirus "hoax" this week, the president said it was a "hoax referring to the action [political rivals] take trying to pin this to someone. The hoax is on them." There are now 22 cases of coronavirus in the U.S., CDC Director Robert Redfield said at the briefing. “It is a sad day in our state as we learn that a Washingtonian has died from COVID-19. Our hearts go out to his family and friends,” Gov. Jay Inslee said. “We will continue to work toward a day where no one dies from this virus.”

Badsustinere The man who died from the virus was old and he was health compromise tell the truth for once Politico! We know it hits the weak and sickly. Pay attention to the scientists since you're so into scientist and their ability to declare weather climate. Sigh...

This man had underlying health issues that was the main cause of his death , the same as if someone haad the Flu.

The segment of the population that is most susceptible to dying from the virus are those with compromised immune systems. 1. transplants, cancer treatment, immune suppression therapy., CHF, COPD 2. Frail elderly 3. Infants (2) Everybody else chill covid19 CoronaVirusUpdates

Rest In Peace, I’m so sorry.

Orange Man Bad.

realDonaldTrump Get the vaccine ready

But but but Trump said it was a hoax.

Some hoax trump! It may only be one death thus far...but I'm sure this one person meant the world to their loved ones. Stop lying and stop downplaying the coronavirus as a hoax! realDonaldTrump

The action we take today will determine how we survive tomorrow and control our destiny for the next outbreak. A Hugh teaching lesson on how we approach this virus today. A panic mode would not be a bad thing and may save lives.

My sympathy for the family for loss of loved one.

There are other deaths we aren’t testing! Duh

fl Only 15,000 more to go to catch the flu this season.

Evil China at it again

We understand this but the way you present it is very irresponsible.

No lie nor hoax. Science is Real. Trump has lied from the beginning. No change now.

This is the worst put together article. First virus death in US and a photo of a disinfection squad....from South Korea.

Tens of thousands of people may have died already and Trump maybe hiding the truth.

It’s here already. Folks should be careful out there

So sorry for that person and the family.

No no....it was a killer hoax.....

Here are your trump towels, Seattle.

What? Trump told his troops that the coronavirus is just a 'hoax'.

Republican failure to contain.

But I was told this was a hoax!

Hey MickMulvaneyOMB! Maybe you should stop by and see the grieving family? Tell them the president says their loved ones death is just part of the hoax to end his presidency in the first term. Yeah...you should do that.

And gop politicians like trump and kim reynolds think this is a hoax.

Oh, goody. Right up the street. 😢

Congrats America! Your policy of no health care and no sick time is finally paying off!

Trump will now say it’s going great, yesterday we had 15 people infected, today we only have 14. It’s going to disappear sooner than anyone could have imagined.

Hoax.

Send the news to the president and Limbaugh it’s more than a cold👺👺👺☠️☠️☠️

'We've seen the president really try to downplay the concerns ... but meanwhile career and scientific professionals have contradicted that and said that it's inevitable.' Trump administration imported coronavirus by bringing patients against CDC recommendation and treating them without protection. And now they are overseeing a 4000 pt drop in stocks. Donald Trump continues to deny science. He denies knowledge, really. That puts his unfitness for office on full display.
