Trump coronavirus effort undermined by mixed messages and falsehoods

When Anthony Fauci, clad in a white lab coat, invited an "NBC Nightly News" correspondent into his offices this week and described the coronavirus as an "outbreak" that was reaching "likely pandemic proportions," the immunologist was acting as he long has during public health crises: delivering a fact-based warning to the public. But at the White House, the more politically minded officials overseeing the administration's response were irritated that Fauci - the veteran director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases - had used the word "pandemic" without giving anyone on Vice President Mike Pence's staff a heads up, according to two people familiar with the situation. One week after President Donald Trump returned home from India to confront an unfolding health crisis and tasked Pence with managing the government-wide response, the effort has been undermined by mixed messages, contradictions and falsehoods - many of them emanating from the president himself, including this week when he repeatedly spread false information about just how soon a coronavirus vaccine would be available. The White House is handling the rapidly expanding coronavirus as a public relations problem as much as a public health crisis. Officials are insisting on message discipline among government scientists and political aides alike, part of what they say is a responsible effort to try to calm jittery Americans and provide uniform and transparent information. Trump - who has closely monitored news coverage and the gyrating financial markets, which he sees as a barometer of his reelection chances - has privately griped about what he considers to be hysteria from both the media and his own public health officials, according to people familiar with his complaints, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to share...

Fed survey finds coronavirus impacting parts of US economy

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Federal Reserve's latest nationwide survey of business conditions has found that the coronavirus outbreak has begun to impact tourism and disrupt manufacturing chains in parts of the United States. The survey compiled by the Fed's 12 regional banks and released Wednesday found that growth through late February continued at a moderate rate. But it noted that concerns are rising about how the virus that began in China might impact the U.S. economy. Tourism from China is being affected and American manufacturers are beginning to report supply chain delays, the report said. The Fed's San Francisco regional bank reported that the COVID-19 outbreak has led to decreased demand for aircraft from China and other Southeast Asian nations. Some American solar equipment manufacturers have also experienced delayed shipments due to supply-chain disruptions. The survey, known as the beige book, will be part of the discussion when Fed officials meet later this month to review interest rates. The Fed on Tuesday announced a surprise half-point cut in its benchmark rate in an effort to support the economy in the face of the spreading virus. The move, which pushed the Fed's policy rate down to a range of 1% to 1.25%, marked the largest cut since the 2008 financial crisis. Some analysts believe the Fed will cut rates even further at its March 17-18 meeting, especially if the effects of the coronavirus have grown more serious by that time. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said at a news conference Tuesday that the Fed is "hearing concerns from people, for example in the travel business, the hotel business and things like that." Fed officials expect the impact to grow "and that's one of the reasons we have come to the view that it would be...
