Donald Trump to resume coronavirus briefings from Tuesday (local time) after a break (File)
Washington:
When President Donald Trump resumes his coronavirus briefings on Tuesday, he will focus on his achievements and positive developments in treatments and vaccines, according to Kayleigh McEnany, White House press secretary.
Briefings “can be daily” and will generally take place at 5 pm. or 6 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time, McEnany told Fox News. As the new coronavirus began to spread rapidly in the United States this spring, Trump frequently crammed onto the press room dais with experts leading the fight against the disease and spent hours answering questions and present his thoughts on how to treat infections. Briefings shrunk this summer.
McEnany said that when Trump returned to the lectern to talk about the coronavirus that has claimed the lives of more than 140,000 in the United States, he planned to “answer these questions and deliver a lot of good news about therapeutics and vaccines and the way forward through this virus and show our historic response as well. “
CNN reported earlier Tuesday that it was not clear whether Drs. Anthony Fauci and Deborah Birx, officials of the coronavirus task force who became household names during spring briefings, would attend on Tuesday. Vice President Mike Pence, who heads the task force, travels.
Congress is currently negotiating another coronavirus relief bill to help deal with the pandemic and ease the economic pain it has caused.
