I want America to understand that but I also want them to understand that the public along with the state and the federal government have the power to change the trajectory of this epidemic

You mentioned Italy and Spain When you look at their trajectory from about a month ago is when they really started to lean into their aggressive mitigation efforts So I want Americans to understand that as hard as this week is going to be there is a light at the end of the tunnel If everyone does their part for the next 30 days
