Key Focus

  • But as of Monday, no one in the state is under a mandatory stay-at-home order.
    This patchwork of restrictions is far from perfect, and it has drawn criticism from public health experts who say it risks luring people from restrictive areas to less restrictive ones in search of goods and services.
    Some of these experts have even called on Trump to issue a nationwide lockdown, a response adopted by many governments around the globe which have prohibited their citizens from leaving their homes.
    Yet so far, the federal government's primary public health agency, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, has only issued "guidance" for individuals, businesses and healthcare providers.
    An example of this kind of guidance is the CDC's national campaign, dubbed "30 Days to Stop the Spread," which recommends hand washing, social distancing and staying home.
    Feds offer guidance and aid
    All of this is not to imply that Trump has not used the powers of the presidency to responded to the crisis, however
  • As the nation entered its third straight week of near total economic shutdown on Monday, President Donald Trump falsely claimed that it will be his decision when the nation's businesses will reopen during the coronavirus pandemic, and not a choice left to individual governors.
    But legal experts say Trump is wrong. For one, they note that U.S. law gives state governors wide latitude to protect the health and safety of their constituents.
  • He has also signed congressional legislation providing more than $2 trillion in federal aid to businesses and individuals hard hit by the economic shutdown.
    After initially resisting the move, Trump was even convinced to invoke the Defense Production Act to force U.S. companies to manufacture much-needed medical equipment.
    Still, few of these actions, save for the travel bans, are the type that would be lifted or reversed if the nation's public health experts determined that the virus'spread had been slowed enough so that schools and businesses could reopen
