March 30, 2020On the day when the number of infected in the United States exceeds 135 thousand cases, with almost 2400 deaths, President Donald Trump in the briefing of the task force against coronavirus today said that: "if the deaths will be 100 thousand or less, we will have done a good job. " Trump referred to the words of the epidemiologist and White House consultant Anthony Fauci who had hypothesized a budget at the end of the epidemic of 100-200 thousand deaths.

Anthony Fauci told reporters during the briefing that it is "entirely conceivable" that more than one million people in the United States can contract coronavirus, but, he added, that the mitigation and extension of the guidelines until April, could reduce these numbers. Fauci added that he and Dr. Deborah Birx, coordinator of the White House Task Force Coronavirus response, discussed the plans and that the president accepted their recommendation.

"The peak of coronavirus deaths will occur in two weeks and that is why we extend the guidelines on social distancing until April 30," said Trump who had to shelve the idea of ​​reopening the United States for Easter and now it looks forward to being on track for recovery by June 1st.
