RUSH TRANSCRIPT CAMEROTA What ░░░░░░░░ the White House doing ░░░░░░░░ contain the Coronavirus outbreak ░░░░░░░░ us now is Vice ░░░░░░░░ Mike Pence He s ░░░░░░░░ leading he s leading ░░░░░░░░ should say the federal ░░░░░░░░ s Coronavirus response Mr ░░░░░░░░ President we re really ░░░░░░░░ to have you here ░░░░░░░░ us this morning PENCE ░░░░░░░░ Alisyn CAMEROTA Look our ░░░░░░░░ and so many Americans ░░░░░░░░ questions so forgive me ░░░░░░░░ I move us along ░░░░░░░░ through PENCE No please ░░░░░░░░ through this interview I ░░░░░░░░ us to cover a ░░░░░░░░ of ground PENCE You ░░░░░░░░ CAMEROTA Thank you President ░░░░░░░░ s speech last night ░░░░░░░░ he talked about the ░░░░░░░░ ban from Europe or ░░░░░░░░ restrictions I guess I ░░░░░░░░ say from Europe and ░░░░░░░░ handling of cargo shipments ░░░░░░░░ clarifications basically had to ░░░░░░░░ issued within the space ░░░░░░░░ an hour One from ░░░░░░░░ saying that travel restrictions ░░░░░░░░ not apply to all ░░░░░░░░ and then the President ░░░░░░░░ tweeted he didn t ░░░░░░░░ cargo Why the confusion ░░░░░░░░ I don t think ░░░░░░░░ was confusion The President ░░░░░░░░ another historic step just ░░░░░░░░ he did in January ░░░░░░░░ China to suspend all ░░░░░░░░ from Europe Alisyn for ░░░░░░░░ next 30 days Because ░░░░░░░░ ve recognized our health ░░░░░░░░ tracking global data that ░░░░░░░░ epicenter of the Coronavirus ░░░░░░░░ shifted from China and ░░░░░░░░ Korea to Europe Two ░░░░░░░░ ago there were roughly ░░░░░░░░ Coronavirus cases in Italy ░░░░░░░░ s 12 000 as ░░░░░░░░ today a thousand in ░░░░░░░░ yesterday a thousand in ░░░░░░░░ So the health team ░░░░░░░░ into the Oval Office ░░░░░░░░ that to the President ░░░░░░░░ he made the decision ░░░░░░░░ the spot after hearing ░░░░░░░░ all sides that the ░░░░░░░░ thing we could do ░░░░░░░░ suspend all travel And ░░░░░░░░ coming home will be ░░░░░░░░ through 13 different airports ░░░░░░░░ ll be screened and ░░░░░░░░ we re going to ░░░░░░░░ every American and legal ░░░░░░░░ returning to the United ░░░░░░░░ to self quarantine for ░░░░░░░░ days CAMEROTA That s ░░░░░░░░ information Just to be ░░░░░░░░ PENCE This is a ░░░░░░░░ of our strategy You ░░░░░░░░ that with what we ░░░░░░░░ doing in communities where ░░░░░░░░ Washington State and California ░░░░░░░░ New York where we ░░░░░░░░ what s called community ░░░░░░░░ CDC issued tough new ░░░░░░░░ to those states about ░░░░░░░░ strategies and the overall ░░░░░░░░ to Americans to use ░░░░░░░░ sense practice good hygiene ░░░░░░░░ keep a special eye ░░░░░░░░ seniors with chronic underlying ░░░░░░░░ conditions It s all ░░░░░░░░ of the President s ░░░░░░░░ CAMEROTA Understood PENCE to ░░░░░░░░ the American people from ░░░░░░░░ Coronavirus CAMEROTA And I ░░░░░░░░ want to get to ░░░░░░░░ specific things in a ░░░░░░░░ But about those travel ░░░░░░░░ a clarification was that ░░░░░░░░ s not all travel ░░░░░░░░ s not as you ░░░░░░░░ some people Americans coming ░░░░░░░░ from Europe Here though ░░░░░░░░ what Tom Bossert your ░░░░░░░░ Homeland Security adviser up ░░░░░░░░ 2018 said about these ░░░░░░░░ of travel restrictions He ░░░░░░░░ this last night There ░░░░░░░░ little value to European ░░░░░░░░ restrictions Poor use of ░░░░░░░░ and energy Earlier yes ░░░░░░░░ travel restrictions screening are ░░░░░░░░ useful We had nearly ░░░░░░░░ much disease here in ░░░░░░░░ U S as the ░░░░░░░░ in Europe We must ░░░░░░░░ on layered community mitigation ░░░░░░░░ now Is he wrong ░░░░░░░░ Well I think our ░░░░░░░░ experts would disagree strongly ░░░░░░░░ the view that the ░░░░░░░░ the President took last ░░░░░░░░ with Europe was not ░░░░░░░░ for The truth is ░░░░░░░░ learned yesterday 70 of ░░░░░░░░ the new cases for ░░░░░░░░ in the world happened ░░░░░░░░ Europe And probably most ░░░░░░░░ to the President was ░░░░░░░░ of yesterday when we ░░░░░░░░ at 35 states on ░░░░░░░░ map where we had ░░░░░░░░ cases fully 30 of ░░░░░░░░ cases could be traced ░░░░░░░░ contacts in Europe So ░░░░░░░░ President took the action ░░░░░░░░ to the point of ░░░░░░░░ comment we re not ░░░░░░░░ a travel ban as ░░░░░░░░ strategy The suspending all ░░░░░░░░ for 30 days from ░░░░░░░░ is a part of ░░░░░░░░ strategy The other part ░░░░░░░░ an aggressive mitigation strategy ░░░░░░░░ spoke to the governors ░░░░░░░░ New York Washington State ░░░░░░░░ California tomorrow or yesterday ░░░░░░░░ issued strong guidance to ░░░░░░░░ areas where we have ░░░░░░░░ spread We flowed resources ░░░░░░░░ flowed support to those ░░░░░░░░ And so it s ░░░░░░░░ combination of strategies that ░░░░░░░░ President has employed here ░░░░░░░░ Yeah PENCE As he ░░░░░░░░ it s all hands ░░░░░░░░ deck A whole of ░░░░░░░░ approach It s also ░░░░░░░░ whole of America approach ░░░░░░░░ ve been meeting with ░░░░░░░░ leaders in one relevant ░░░░░░░░ after another to ensure ░░░░░░░░ the full resources of ░░░░░░░░ are being brought to ░░░░░░░░ CAMEROTA I understand I ░░░░░░░░ to ask you about ░░░░░░░░ There s been so ░░░░░░░░ confusion about this Last ░░░░░░░░ the president said testing ░░░░░░░░ testing capabilities are expanding ░░░░░░░░ day by day We ░░░░░░░░ moving very quickly But ░░░░░░░░ numbers on the CDC ░░░░░░░░ official government website tell ░░░░░░░░ different story The numbers ░░░░░░░░ that the most testing ░░░░░░░░ done March 5th That ░░░░░░░░ from U S Public ░░░░░░░░ labs and CDC labs ░░░░░░░░ numbers were more than ░░░░░░░░ Then if you move ░░░░░░░░ each day it gets ░░░░░░░░ little bit less until ░░░░░░░░ March 10th CDC labs ░░░░░░░░ are the numbers listed ░░░░░░░░ only eight at public ░░░░░░░░ labs Why are the ░░░░░░░░ of tests going down ░░░░░░░░ Well I don t ░░░░░░░░ they are Alisyn One ░░░░░░░░ the things that we ░░░░░░░░ working on is a ░░░░░░░░ reporting website where every ░░░░░░░░ in the country and ░░░░░░░░ can let CDC and ░░░░░░░░ American people know the ░░░░░░░░ of tests CAMEROTA You ░░░░░░░░ saying these numbers are ░░░░░░░░ PENCE Your viewers should ░░░░░░░░ encouraged that every state ░░░░░░░░ in America can conduct ░░░░░░░░ tests today We ve ░░░░░░░░ cleared out regulatory barriers ░░░░░░░░ university hospitals and laboratories ░░░░░░░░ be able to conduct ░░░░░░░░ I want to commend ░░░░░░░░ University of Washington for ░░░░░░░░ extraordinary work they re ░░░░░░░░ expanding tests to people ░░░░░░░░ in Washington State.”
