Could Trump’s mask-less factory visits cost lives?



A whole shift of highly needed swabs lost because of Presidential visit.


As Trump touts increased production, coronavirus swabs made during his Maine factory tour will be tossed in the trash

GUILFORD, Maine – President Donald Trump traveled to Maine Friday to tour a facility that makes medical swabs used for coronavirus testing, but the swabs manufactured in the background during his visit will ultimately be thrown in the trash, the company said.   

Puritan Medical Products said it will have to discard the swabs, a company spokeswoman told USA TODAY in response to questions about the visit.  

It is not clear why the swabs will be scrapped, or how many. The company described its manufacturing plans for Friday as "limited" – but the disruption comes as public health officials in Maine and other states have complained that a shortage of swabs has hampered their ability to massively scale up coronavirus testing.

Workers in white lab coats, hair nets and plastic booties worked at machines making swabs while the president walked through the room. Trump, who did not wear a mask for the visit, stopped at one point to talk with some of the workers.  

“Made in the USA. I’ve been saying it for a long time,” Trump said.

Trump has repeatedly traveled during the pandemic to call attention to companies who are responding, sometimes with government help. In those cases, the president has used the factory floors as backdrops to convey a message of American ingenuity and production that he said the country has not witnessed since World War II.   

Those tours generally last only a few minutes.

Maine:'A fragile moment': Trump tours swab maker despite concerns over unrest

"The running of the factory machines is very limited today and will only occur when the president is touring the facility floor," Virginia Templet, the company's marketing manager told USA TODAY in response to questions about the event. "Swabs produced during that time will be discarded."

President Donald Trump holds a medical swab near his nose as he tours Puritan Medical Products, a medical swab manufacturer, on Friday in Guilford, Maine.

The White House did not respond to questions about the swabs.

Nearly a third of Maine nursing homes reported last month they had no nasal swabs to collect specimens, the Portland Press Herald reported. Nearly 61% of those that responded to a Maine Medical Directors Association survey said they had seven or fewer at their disposal.

National shortages of swabs was part of what severely hampered early coronavirus testing efforts. The Trump administration used the Korean War-era Defense Production Act to increase production, which Trump is expected to tout on Friday. Puritan, which received millions of dollars from the federal government to double production, is one of only two companies that make the kind of swabs needed in coronavirus testing.

During a briefing in April, Trump held up a medical swab alongside a Q-Tip that he pulled from his jacket pocket. Trump said swabs and chemical reagents needed for tests were "so easy to get." But in a tacit acknowledgment of the urgency of producing more, he also announced that he would activate the Defense Production Act.

Trump has traveled extensively in recent weeks to call attention to his administration's effort to ramp up the production of the tools needed to combat the virus. He toured a Ford Motor Co. factory in Michigan, a company that makes personal protective equipment in Pennsylvania and a Honeywell plant in Arizona that manufacturers respirators.

Those trips have drawn attention to the president's decision not to wear a face mask in view of news cameras, even as the employees and company officials staged behind him at those events do so. Trump has noted that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines recommend – but do not require – a face mask.

Trump Recession? COVID-19 Recession?


It's official: The recession began in February

By Matt Egan, CNN Business

Updated 3:05 PM ET, Mon June 8, 2020


The latest jobs report means the worst could be behind us



New York (CNN Business)The longest economic expansion in American history is officially over. The National Bureau of Economic Research declared Monday that the recession began in February.

The economy collapsed so rapidly that NBER wasted no time in announcing a recession, a stark contrast to previous downturns when the body took upwards of a year to declare what most people already knew. This was the fastest that NBER has declared any recession since the group began formal announcements in 1979.

Social distancing requirements imposed to fight the pandemic have crushed broad swaths of the US economy, from airlines and cruise ships to restaurants and Broadway shows.

"The unprecedented magnitude of the decline in employment and production, and its broad reach across the entire economy, warrants the designation of this episode as a recession, even if it turns out to be briefer than earlier contractions," NBER wrote.

If you're a medical professional or first responder, you can find savings on a variety of products that might make life a little easier right now.

    More than 42 million Americans have filed for unemployment benefits. Major companies including JCPenney, J.Crew and Hertz have filed for bankruptcy. And economists are predicting GDP imploded at an annualized rate of 40% during the second quarter.

    The pandemic marked an end to the mediocre but long recovery from the Great Recession. In July 2019, that expansion officially became the longest period of uninterrupted growth in US history dating back to 1854. It spanned 128 months, easily breaking the prior record of 120 months set between March 1991 and March 2001 during the dotcom boom.

    Normally, economists define a recession as consecutive quarters of negative growth. The United States already endured one quarter of a shrinking economy, with GDP dropping by 5% during the first quarter.

    NBER decided not to wait for a second quarter of a contracting economy, although it is widely expected to happen during the second quarter. The body also declared that while the economy peaked on a monthly basis in February, the quarterly peak happened in the fourth quarter. That disparity "reflects the unusual nature of this recession," NBER said.

    "The economy contracted so sharply in March," NBER said, that by the first quarter GDP and employment was "significantly below" the levels of the fourth quarter of 2019.

    Hopes for a speedy return to growth

    Previous recessions began more subtly, causing a significant lag before NBER declared them.

    For example, NBER didn't announce until December 1, 2008 that the United States had tumbled into recession the prior December. By then, Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers had already collapsed. The stock market had imploded and Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were taken over by the government.

    Although this recession began suddenly, there is hope that it could be relatively brief. Economists are predicting GDP will turn sharply positive in the third quarter as businesses continue to reopen and Americans begin to travel again.

    New infections are still the biggest risk to the economy

    The economy is benefiting from unprecedented help from the federal government.

    Congress and the White House passed a record-breaking stimulus package that provided direct aid to households, forgivable loans to small businesses and bailouts to some large companies.

    The Federal Reserve is taking steps that make its response to the 2008 financial crisis look tame. The Fed has slashed interest rates to zero, promised to buy an unlimited amount of bonds and rolled out a series of emergency lending programs. The US central bank is even, for the first time, directing the purchase of corporate bonds, including junk bonds. These steps have unlocked financial markets that froze in March, freeing even highly leveraged companies to borrow.

    Wall Street is booming

    And there are some glimmers of hope suggesting the worst of the downturn may already be over.

    Most notably, the Bureau of Labor Statistics shocked economists and investors on Friday by saying the United States added 2.5 million jobs in May. It was the largest monthly gain since the BLS began tracking monthly figures in 1939.

    The spike in jobs was even larger relative to consensus calls from economists for another 8 million jobs to have disappeared in May. While the unemployment rate ticked down to 13.3% in May, it remains higher than at any point during the Great Recession.

    Wall Street has already recovered most of its losses from this recession as investors bet on a V-shaped recovery. The S&P 500 has surged more than 40% above its March 23 lows. The Nasdaq, powered by large tech stocks such as Amazon (AMZN) and Facebook (FB), is at all-time highs.

      The recovery on Main Street may not be as swift. Parts of the economy, including restaurants, movie theaters, airlines and cruise lines, may not be the same until a vaccine is developed.

      And the risk of a second wave of infections that forces parts of the United States to go back into lockdown remains the biggest threat to the recovery.

      Is it the far right not the radical left?

      The White House's unproven claims on Facebook and Twitter that antifa activists are placing bricks to incite riots have been taken down

      • The White House spread a conspiracy theory that "antifa" activists are placing caches of bricks around cities to incite riots.
      • There's no evidence for this theory, that has circulated on social media in recent days, and many of the suspicious pallets have been found to have legitimate purposes.
      • Antifa is also not a single organized group, but is a term that refers to a range of anti-fascist activists with different motivations and methods of protest.
      • While there isn't evidence of antifa-led violence, there have been signs of far-right extremists trying to infiltrate the protests and spark violence.
      • The posts by the White House also presented a new challenge for Facebook and Twitter, which have struggled with how to properly moderate the president's posts.
      • A few hours after the posts went up, they disappeared from Facebook and Twitter. It's not clear why.

      The White House spread an unproven conspiracy theory on social media blaming far-left groups and "antifa" for placing pallets of bricks at protests following the death of George Floyd to incite anti-police violence.

      On Facebook and Twitter on Wednesday, the official White House accounts wrote, "antifa and professional anarchists are invading our communities, staging bricks and weapons to instigate violence," alongside a video of piles of bricks found in various US cities. "These are acts of domestic terror."

      Similar claims have circulated widely online in recent days, fueled by photos and videos of piles of bricks found across the US. But there is currently no actual evidence proving that any of the bricks were placed deliberately in an attempt to stoke violence — whether by protesters or anyone else.

      The White House's assertions also have potential to further inflame tensions at the protests engulfing the US, and present a fresh dilemma for Facebook and Twitter on how to handle Trump's controversial and unproven posts online.

      A few hours after the posts went out on Facebook and Twitter, they were seemingly deleted. It's not clear if the social networks took action against them, or if the White House voluntarily deleted the posts. Facebook and Twitter did not respond to Business Insider's requests for comment.

      There are various brick-related conspiracy theories — but no proof

      Demonstrations have erupted in more than 300 US cities in the last week to protest police brutality and racism, after the death of George Floyd — a 46-year-old black man who died on May 25 after a white Minneapolis police officer knelt on his neck for nearly 9 minutes.

      Trump and other right-wing figures have accused antifa of fomenting the protests, which have seen scenes of violence, extreme police aggression, and robberies. But antifa is not a single, unified organisation like some describe it, but is rather a catch-all term for a range of protesters and others committed to anti-fascist activism, with a range of motivations and methods of protest.

      There are also multiple versions of conspiracy theories related to the bricks going around. In the one the White House shared, the bricks are being placed by left-wing agitators for protesters to use against the authorities. Other protesters have claimed they are being left by police, for undercover officers to utilize and thereby discredit the protests. And a third claims that they are the work of white-supremacists attempting to infiltrate the unrest.

      In many cases, the "suspicious" bricks seem to be linked to legitimate construction work. One video of police moving bricks that circulated online was actually officers moving bricks that came from a damaged sidewalk, they said. Another video that purported to show deliberately placed bricks in New York was shot in a neighbourhood where Rolling Stone reported that "no major protests have actually taken place."

      The FBI is warning of 'far-right provocateurs'

      On Tuesday, The Nation reported that the FBI's Washington, DC, field office "has no intelligence indicating Antifa involvement/presence" in violence connected to protests that took place over the weekend.

      The FBI report listed a series of violent acts including instances of bricks being thrown at police officers and a backpack that contained explosives. But based on "CHS [Confidential Human Source] canvassing, open source/social media partner engagement, and liaison," the bureau had no evidence that those acts were directly linked to antifa, The Nation said.

      However, the FBI's report did warn that people associated with a far-right social-media group had "called for far-right provocateurs to attack federal agents" and "use automatic weapons against protesters."


      Politico also reported on Monday that a Department of Homeland Security intelligence note warned law enforcement officials that a white supremacist channel on the encrypted messaging app Telegram encouraged its followers to incite violence to start a race war during the protests.

      Citing the FBI, it said that two days after Floyd's death, the channel "incited followers to engage in violence and start the 'boogaloo' — a term used by some violent extremists to refer to the start of a second Civil War — by shooting in a crowd." One of the messages in the channel called for potential shooters to "frame the crowd around you" for the violence, the note said, according to Politico.

      NBC News also reported on Monday that Twitter had identified a group posing as an antifa organization calling for violence in the protests as actually being linked to the white supremacist group Identity Evropa.

      Twitter suspended the account, @ANTIFA_US, after it posted a tweet that incited violence. A company spokesperson also told NBC News that the account violated Twitter's rules against platform manipulation and spam.

      Social media companies are struggling with how to respond to Trump's posts

      Over the past week, as protests against police violence have following Floyd's death have cropped up across the country, social media companies have grappled with how to handle the President's inflammatory posts.


      When Trump posted "when the shooting starts, the looting starts" — a phrase linked to a Southern police chief during civil rights unrest in the 1960s — Twitter determined that he was "glorifying violence" and affixed a warning to his tweet. But Facebook said the post didn't violate its rules, prompting the biggest employee revolt in the company's history.

      Prior to their disappearance the White House's post presented a new challenge for Facebook and Twitter.

      The claims are not supported by evidence, and are the kind of highly charged claim that might normally be fact-checked by one of Facebook's third-party fact-checking partners and labelled appropriately. Facebook, however, has previously said that it won't fact-check politicians — but it's not clear whether the White House account is considered "political speech" or not. In theory, the White House accounts are supposed to be official government accounts, rather than political or campaigning tools; the Trump White House arguably disregards this, and it's not clear how that fact will factor into the matter.

      Meanwhile, Twitter has set a precedent recently by fact-checking some of Trump's inaccurate tweets about mail-in ballots (provoking right-wing fury).

      * Data include both confirmed and presumptive positive cases of COVID-19 reported to CDC or tested at CDC since January 21, 2020, with the exception of testing results for persons repatriated to the United States from Wuhan, China and Japan. State and local public health departments are now testing and publicly reporting their cases. In the event of a discrepancy between CDC cases and cases reported by state and local public health officials, data reported by states should be considered the most up to date.

      † CDC is no longer reporting the number of persons under investigation (PUIs) that have been tested, as well as PUIs that have tested negative. Now that states are testing and reporting their own results, CDC’s numbers are not representative of all testing being done nationwide.
