President Trump on Monday gave a presser from the White House briefing room and outlined new Coronavirus guidelines for Americans, predicting the virus will be a threat through July or August.

The President outlined new guidelines for Americans, “including the young and healthy,” including engaging in home education, avoiding gatherings of more than 10, avoiding discretionary travel, and avoiding bars, restaurants and food courts.

The two-page list of guidelines advised Americans to use drive-thrus or order take out.

‘We would much rather be ahead of the curve than behind it and that’s where we are,’ Trump said. ‘Therefore, my administration is recommending that all Americans including the young and healthy work to engage in schooling from home when possible, avoid a gathering in groups of more than ten people, avoid discretionary travel and avoid eating and drinking in bars, restaurants, and public food courts.’

He urged Americans to work together to fight the spread of the disease. And noted the country would celebrate together when the virus was defeated.

‘If everyone makes this change are these critical changes and sacrifices now, we will rally together as one nation and we will defeat the virus and we are going to have a big celebration altogether. We can turn the corner and turn it quickly, a lot of progress has been made,’ he said.

Trump also tweeted the guidelines.
