Guardian, 31 Jul 2020
Donald Trump says closing schools across the country is causing death. "Keeping them out of school and keeping work closed is causing death also," he said. "Economic harm, but it’s causing death for different reasons, but death. Probably more death." After 150,000 coronavirus deaths in the country, Trump added the country "understands what it is dealing with now", before pointing out leaders in countries like Australia and Japan were praised before a resurgence in Covid-19 cases
