“We need to get back to work. The flu kills thousands of people. And at the same time, we never “cut off” the country because of this. We lose even more people in accidents. And we do not ask automakers to stop making cars, ”said the American leader.

According to him, people die from the virus, and even more people can be lost if the country finds itself in a vast recession or depression. Trump is convinced that the US "was not created to remain without work." He noted that people do not want to be locked in a house or apartment.

“Our citizens want to get back to work. They will distance themselves from each other and everything else. The elderly will be watched with love and protection. We can combine two things, ”the head of the White House wrote on Twitter.
