Donald Trump suggested, “the worst days” of the coronavirus are over as he welcomed a group of small-business owners to the White House who have benefited from an emergency loan program he signed into law last month.

“As our nation battles against this terrible scourge, we continue to pray for the victims as well as those Americans who are grieving their lost ones and their loved ones. We suffer with one heart, but we will prevail. We are coming back, and we’re coming back strong. Our experts believe that the worst days of the pandemic are behind us”, - said the US President. 

Journalists asked him how he could say this with confidence when the country begins to reopen.

“I think the virus will disappear. It is going to run away. And if it comes back in another form in the fall, we will be able to cope. We are prepared”, - concluded Donald Trump.
