Breaking trump declares national emergency over coronavirus in us
I think there may be some misinformation here.
To clarify, President Donald Trump did not declare a national emergency over the coronavirus in the United States. However, he did declare a national emergency on March 13, 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, but not specifically over the coronavirus.
On March 13, 2020, President Trump declared a national emergency under the Stafford Act, which allows the federal government to mobilize resources and take swift action to respond to the pandemic. This declaration enabled the administration to access additional funding, resources, and authorities to combat the spread of the virus.
The national emergency declaration was made in response to the rapid spread of COVID-19 across the United States, which had already resulted in widespread closures of businesses, schools, and other institutions, as well as significant disruptions to the economy and daily life.
It's worth noting that the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the COVID-19 outbreak a global pandemic on March 11, 2020, and the United States had already taken various measures to respond to the outbreak, including implementing travel restrictions, increasing testing, and providing guidance to states and local governments.
I hope this clears up any confusion!
