According to a report by The New York Times in the United States, after Vice President Mike Pence led the US epidemic prevention work, the White House began on February 27, local time, and strengthened its voice on the new crown virus message. "Includes the aforementioned measures.

 

Pence and the New Corona Virus Working Group composed of some senior public health officials in the United States made it clear that they would report to him a few hours later.

 

In an interview with the media by the Ministry of Health and Human Services, Pence said he was leading the working group, and at the same time he said that he would attach importance to and rely on the guidance of experts in the prevention and control of the epidemic.

 

The New York Times stated that Pence's move to control the transmission of the new crown virus seems to be aimed at preventing "conflicting statements" from the official response.

 

Prior to the afternoon of February 26 local time, US President Donald Trump and CDC officials attended a press conference to discuss the spread of the new crown virus.

Trump said on the same day that the New Crown Virus outbreak had little risk to the American people, and also announced that Vice President Pence would be responsible for coordinating the US government's response strategy.

 

Trump and Fauci on Severity of the new coronavirus epidemic

However, as the director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Fossi and Trump "sing a counter-attack", repeatedly publicly stated that the severity of the new coronavirus epidemic must be taken seriously.

 

In an interview with CNBC (US Consumer News and Business Channel) on February 25, Fossi warned that if the New Corona Virus is pandemic, travel restrictions (such as those imposed by the Trump administration on certain Chinese tourists) will become "It doesn't matter" because "you can't keep the whole world out."

 

According to the New York Times, he also said in an interview with CNN (Cable News Network) that the world is on the verge of a pandemic of the new coronavirus.

 

At a meeting with Pence on February 27, Fossi also described the seriousness of the public health threat facing the American, saying that "the virus is very adaptable to humans" and pointed out its mortality rate It seems higher than the flu.

 

We are dealing with a serious virus, Fauci said.

As one of the top infectious disease experts in the United States, Fossi has led the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) since 1984 and has advised six presidents on domestic and global health issues (such as AIDS).

 Rapid development of new coronavirus vaccine

In terms of vaccine research and development, the two also have conflicting positions. Trump said at the press conference that the United States is "rapidly developing a new coronavirus vaccine" and "basically will be given a vaccine prevention in a fairly rapid manner." But then, Fossi said that the process of developing the vaccine may take up to a year and a year and a half.

 

The New York Times stated that Dr. Fossi told his colleagues that the White House had instructed him not to make other remarks without permission. But according to Business Insider, an American technology business information website, the news that Fauci was forbidden, was subsequently denied by a NIAID spokesperson.

 

According to reports, many experts in the field of health and national security in the United States have criticized the Trump administration's control of speech. Ned Price, the top aide of the National Security Council during the Obama administration, tweeted on February 27 It said: "During the Ebola outbreak, we need Dr. Fossi very much, because no one knows more than him, or has more authority or experience. Silencing Fossi is to silence facts and science when we need it most. "

 

In addition to Fossi, on February 25th, US health officials had issued a warning about the possibility of an outbreak

Nancy Messonnier, director of the National Center for Immune and Respiratory Diseases under the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), said that as more people passed from person to person, curbing the spread of the virus in the United States became more and more difficult. "This is not a question of whether it will happen, but a question of when it will happen."

 

It is worth noting that with the development of the epidemic in the United States, Trump, who has always been optimistic, also said at a press conference on February 29 local time, "There may be more cases in the United States."

 

As of February 29, 22 patients were diagnosed in the United States, and Washington State also reported the first case of coronavirus deaths in the United States. According to a report by the Columbia Broadcasting Network (CBS) on March 1, after San Francisco, Washington State declared that the state officially entered a state of emergency.

The United States will impose travel restrictions on Iran, prohibit foreigners entering and leaving Iran within the past 14 days, and adjust the travel warning for South Korea and Italy to the highest level: "Don't travel."

 

Since Trump took office, he has been cutting the budget and staffing of the health department. In 2018, the White House abolished the National Security Council’s special post on epidemic response, reducing health expenditure by approximately $ 15 billion.

 

In this month’s budget proposal for fiscal year 2020, the CDC’s budget has been reduced by nearly 16%, and funding for global health projects has also been reduced from US $ 57.1 billion to US $ 53.2 billion, which will include the World Health Organization (WHO) 53% of funding. However, this proposal has not yet been approved by Congress.

 

Trump once had a skeptical attitude towards the vaccine, and Bill Gates shared the anecdote of meeting US President Trump twice in 2018.

He said that on both occasions, Trump asked him what is the difference between HPV (human papilloma virus) and HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), and said he was considering having a committee investigate the side effects of the vaccine.

 

Before he was elected president, Trump also repeatedly claimed that there was a link between the number of vaccinations children received during infancy and autism.
