Trump said, I think its been amazing what weve been able to do. If we didnt close up our country, we would have had 1.5, 2 million people already done. Weve called it right. Now we dont have to close it. Now we understand the disease. Nobody understood it, because nobody has seen anything like this. The closest thing was in 1917, they say, right? The great pandemic certainly was a terrible thing where they lost 50 to 100 million people. Probably ended the Second World War. All the soldiers were sick. It was that was a terrible situation. And this is highly contagious. This one is highly, highly contagious.
