President Donald Trump said the United States will have fewer than 100,000 CCP virus deaths, which some officials had said would be on the lower end of the death toll during the pandemic.

In a Friday afternoon briefing at the White House, the president said the figure will be “substantially under” the 100,000 to 200,000 deaths that were publicly projected several weeks ago.
