HHS secretary says 'nobody is trying to minimize' coronavirus as Trump does just that

By Oliver Willis -March 9, 2020 1:20 PM

Trump tried to minimize fears about coronavirus by comparing it to flu season.

Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar appeared on Fox News on Monday and said "nobody" was attempting to minimize the coronavirus. Azar made his remark at 10:41 A.M.

Six minutes later, Donald Trump made a tweet attempting to minimize the severity of the virus.

From a March 9 interview on Fox News:

Hey Azar...............what did you do again before you became HHS......................I know lets look at this :

Alex Michael Azar II is an American attorney, executive, lobbyist, and public servant who serves as the United States Secretary of Health and Human Services, having been Deputy Secretary from 2005 to 2007. He was nominated by President Donald Trump on November 13, 2017, and confirmed by the Senate on January 24, 2018.
