(Reuters) - Vice President Mike Pence, heading the Trump administration's response to the coronavirus outbreak, said on Saturday that he would deliver a recommendation to the president on whether to re-open the U.S. economy in the coming week.

Pence told the Fox News Channel that the taskforce he heads would base its decision on data and scientific advice.

Ha! As we reached the 100,000th patient we were in the race to be the world's epicenter for the pandemic. meanwhile in Washington D.C. they are denying reality.
they have no clue jerks
Trump for president 202!
They better get ready to send more stimulus money... Ipening up the economy is obviously not going to happen by Easter
if the country is opened for business as usual the infected numbers will easily triple which will equal to no work force and even worse economy. The US needs to take a page from some of the other countries and how they are handling this world wide matter. Health before money. MARTIAL LAW for a few weeks... Drastic measures for drastic times.
Excellent idea he will *******thousands more from Easter on no input from congress and senate guess not
ooo i couldnt beleive america is digging its own grave and people just deny all the facts around them. So sad but it says something about how stupid people can be when something came to their way, and they still keep with their intentions stiffly, even if they are all gone. How can you have healthy economy when you have ill people? its not possible. There is no way around, sorry to say that, but Trump and BoJo are stupid ignorants and most vulnerable will pay for that. All crisis have 3 phases > awe/understatement, denial , and true reality
With THIS leadership, you can't believe?
Yes please read Darwin. He's true
To take his desires and his policy for reality, we can only regret it later because all the money in the world can not redeem the time lost to deny, by personal policy, reality.
The virus didn’t walk here, airlines kept running spreading to every major city, too late for meaningful lockdown. Just sheltering in place everyone who doesn’t have it. Real choices are pretty slim now; treat the sick, hope, and pray
doesn't matter what they say. No one in their right mind is leaving the house or spending money till the virus us cured
Thank god for Trump
Whatever you say man, but stay safe out here.
