President Donald Trump rebuked a report that claims that about 3,000 will die from the CCP virus per day by June 1, saying it was based on an internal document that didn’t include mitigation efforts.
The White House document was reported on by The New York Times, and it made the prediction that the death toll would nearly double by the end of June. It also claimed that the death toll would increase after states move to open up their economies.
