President Trump warns Americans to prepare for a large spike in COVID-19 deaths in the upcoming days.
Trump calls the upcoming “toughest two weeks of the pandemic” drawing near. Trump explained to reporters,
“I want every American to be prepared for the hard days that lie ahead. We are going to go through a very tough two weeks. Hopefully as the experts are predicting as I think a lot of us are predicting, after studying it so hard. We are going to start seeing some light at the end of the tunnel.”

The U.S. leads with the highest number of COVID-19 cases. More than 306,000 people have tested positive for the disease and over 8,300 have died, according to a Reuters tally.
White House medical experts forecast that between 100,000 to 240,000 Americans will pass away from the pandemic, while following shelter in place orders.
Doesn’t look like the quarantine will be lifted any time soon.
