Has Trump looked at the graph they made available the illustrates 'flatten the curve'?
It clearly shows that the flattened curve spreads out the cases of virus over a longer period of time in order to alleviate the pressures on hospitals to be able to handle the cases without being swamped beyond capacity.
I don't know if anyone ever explained that to him.
