<p><strong>COVID-19 &#8216;Will Probably Get Worse&#8217; &#8211; Donald Trump</strong></p>



<p>President Donald Trump on Tuesday evening admitted that the COVID-19 pandemic “will probably get worse before it gets better’’.</p>



<p>Speaking at a White House news briefing, Trump noted the rising cases in southern and western states of the country, especially Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, and Texas.</p>

<p>“It will probably, unfortunately, get worse before it gets better, something I don’t like saying about things, but that’s the way it is,” he said.</p>

<p>The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the acknowledgment deviated from the president’s recent positive predictions about the pandemic.</p>



<p>Until the rise in new cases, Trump had downplayed the COVID-19 crisis in the U.S. and was even pressuring states for reopening of the economy.</p>



<p>He had threatened to withdraw funding from higher institutions that refused to resume in-person classes in the impending new academic year.</p>



<p>At Tuesday’s news briefing, the president also urged Americans, especially young people, to wear masks where physical distancing was impossible.</p>



<p>“Get a mask. Whether you like the mask or not, they have an impact. They will have an effect and we need everything we can get,” he said.</p>



<p>Trump said the ultimate goal of his administration was to end the pandemic, and not merely to manage it.</p>



<p>He said, “We want to get rid of it as soon as we can. That is why getting a vaccine remains a top priority. Two vaccine candidates are entering the final stage of clinical trials this month.</p>



<p>“This was achieved in record time. It used to be years before you were in a position like we are right now.</p>



<p>“Four other vaccines will enter final trials the following weeks and we are mass-producing all of the top candidates so that the first approved vaccine will be available immediately.’’</p>



<p>The president added that the U.S. military was on standby to immediately distribute the vaccines as soon as they were ready.</p>



<p>NAN reports that the briefing came hours after a Chinese company, CanSino Biologics Inc., reported that its experimental coronavirus vaccine showed promising results in a mid-stage clinical study.</p>



<p>A reporter asked if his administration would be willing to work with China should it be the first to successfully develop a vaccine.</p>



<p>Trump said he is willing to work with anybody that would “get us a good result’. &#8211; NAN</p>
