Fox News:美议员表示无需对新冠病毒感到恐慌(2)

So there was a report that there was a very tense meeting on Monday between the President and his Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin. The President wants Jerome Powell at the Fed to be much more aggressive to stimulate the economy. Your thoughts on that and what we're gonna see in terms of an economic program out of Congress? Well, the President has always put our economy first. That's one of the reasons why he was elected and we've seen this happen before. One of the things we need to do is make sure that - if we do anything on Capitol Hill, it's directed in the right way. My concern is like we have many times on Capitol Hill, we react only in emotion and feelings of moaning instead of the actual practicality so any economic issues that we deal with need to be directed at those who would benefit from it and not just simply a blanket pattern to cover what may be. And so that is our concern. The President wants to see our common continue to do well. I think we're going to see that happen but we'll see how it works out on the Hill. You know, just quickly before I let you go, I spoke to two New Jersey doctors today. One told me that there is access to test at one hospital. Another said they've been trying to get access to test. They can't get it. They've called you know agencies in New Jersey. 

The local hospital doesn't have any tests and the lab you know companies is Quest LabCorp, they don't have tests. They can - they can read the test if it's sent to them but they don't have the test. So that - that seems like a - like a pretty big problem. Well, we're being told and I think this is an interesting issues and I would love to hear more about it but we've been told that anybody who needs a test is getting the test. And I think that's - in concern because if you're - if you have a doctor who has information who is symptomatic, who is showing signs, we have been told through CDC that those tests are available. What they're not testing for is folks who are not symptomatic like myself and that might be the disconnect that we're looking at but if everybody has a test and the Vice President has also said today that they removed the calls from these tests, not just for Medicare, Medicaid but from all private insurance as well. So everybody who needs to get tested, they need to go, get tested. Well, it seems like there's some hiccups in that - that part of the plan and I think that's pretty important so hopefully that's gonna be remedying shortly. Congressman, thank you very much, stay well, good to see you. Thanks Martha. Take care. You too.
