At a coronavirus task force briefing on Sunday, President Trump announced the social distancing guidelines aimed at slowing the spread of the coronavirus will be extended to April 30th.
"We will be extending our guidelines to April 30th to slow the spread," Trump said Sunday in the Rose Garden.
The extension was announced after the president said the peak death rate in the United States for the coronavirus is expected to hit in two weeks, according to models of the virus.
"Nothing would be worse than declaring victory before the victory is won," Trump said. "That would be the greatest loss of all. Therefore, the next two weeks and during this period, it's very important that everyone strongly follow the guidelines."
President Trump encouraged Americans to "strongly follow the guidelines" on social distancing, adding, "The better you do, the faster this whole nightmare will end."
Trump had previously stated a goal of opening the country up by Easter, April 12th. When asked about the Easter timeline by a reporter on Sunday, Trump said the goal was "just an aspiration," but one that had to be extended based on the incoming data.
The president said the administration's latest plans a summary of the taskforce's findings will be announced on Tuesday.
We will be extending our guidelines to April 30 to slow the spread. On Tuesday, we will be finalizing these plans and providing a summary of our findings."

Oh heck, I have stood in the voting booth so MANY times thinking the choices I was presented with were NOT of my choosing, FRiend.
But today, when I look at the candidates presented by the Left, when I watch how the Left has hounded Trump unceasingly since the shock wore off in November of 2016, I know without question, who I will vote for in November.
I just pray to God that we can overcome the machinations/fraud of the Left as they unashamedly use this terrible virus to destroy America, and Trump together.
Stay well,

And furthermore, that’s the core of what’s so disturbing about this whole thing.
No one I know and no one I’ve seen or talked to out in public, at work, etc, is afraid of this, but our leaders are.
How long is a regiment going to last in battle if the soldiers sense fear in the colonel? I sense a lot of fear in my “colonel”.
Or, they can say anything they want to say, anyway. There aren't enough cops. Not enough troops, by a lo-o-o-o-ong shot. Inertia is the tendency to either stay at rest, OR stay in motion. I'm saying the motion is in motion.
... or ...
No.
"Birx explained this"
And the story is? [have they done ANY tests of the general population?]
“Temporary” ...... isn’t permanent...Its roots are in the Latin word tempus, meaning..... “time or season.”
To every thing there is ‘a season’, and ‘a time’ to every purpose under the heaven.
Watch the presser
Done here
Agreed FRiend. I pray they are either long established trolls, or are just in shock, and will come around stronger, and more determined.
The events of the past month really, have definitely changed the tone of discussion here, and it is troubling. Sincerely hoping it is not the far reaching effects of the constantly howling Left, and more of a temporary reaction to the stress from the uncertainty the Virus has carried with it from Wuhan.
Take care, and stay well,
Tatt
Thanks for you help and analysis. [not...]
Neither do I. Him downplaying the anti-malaria cocktail that has been successful and talking about wanting a vaccine makes me think he has some big Phamra motive. If he had said move forward on the anti-malaria while we look at other drugs that I would have a different opinion.
All this to save one fing city.
New York has 59,648 CV cases, most of which are probably concentrated in and around NYC. The US currently has a total of 142,004 cases. That leaves 82,356 cases outside New York. It's not just about the Big Apple.

Well smartboy....show them how and where to stop this....
If it were just the “staying in” I’d love it. I’m still going to work everyday and the atmosphere there is 95% like nothing is going on that’s out of the ordinary.
It’s the rampant socialism, tyrannical threats and actions by governors and mayors, and possible very long-term economic damage. I’m not rich and I don’t have that many earning years left to recoup losses.
I’m getting insulted more on this thread than I have in 2 years online. I must be speaking too much truth.
Was supposed to be 25 years online.

They already have us hiding on our houses by using nothing but words and scary predictions.
What will people do when they bring out the guns, tanks, and helicopters?
Trump has very wisely seen:
All Quiet on the Western Front.
