Trump promises to defeat ‘China virus’
United States President Donald Trump proclaimed on Thursday his country would “defeat the China virus” as he touted the latest progress made in developing a treatment for the disease.
“We have made tremendous strides and have a bounty of treatments,” Trump told the audience at a plant in Ohio. The president highlighted that remdesivir and antibody treatments will help in the fight against COVID-19, while he expects a vaccine to be developed “very soon.”
Trump also took the opportunity to reject imposing new and “neverending” lockdowns in the US, claiming that the situation has markedly improved now and “we know who to protect and what to do.”
