US President Trump labels corona virus: Hoax


United States President Donald Trump has labelled the deadly coronavirus as his opponents' "new hoax" in a rally on Saturday.
The President was speaking at a campaign event in South Carolina when he accused the Democrats of politicising the coronavirus, comparing it to the way his opponents attempted to use an investigation into Trump's connection with Russia as well as his impeachment to try and bring him down. 
"Democrats are politicising the coronavirus... They don't have any clue. They can't even count their votes in Iowa. No, they can't. They can't count their votes," Trump said.
"One of my people came up to me and said, 'Mr President, they tried to beat you on Russia, Russia, Russia.' That did not work out too well. They could not do it. They tried the impeachment hoax."

He then said that coronavirus was "their new hoax" before mentioning how his administration's "early" response to the virus had limited its spread in the United States. One of those measures was to ban individuals from entering the country if they had been in China in the past 14 days - similarly to what New Zealand has done. 
"We did something that was pretty amazing. We have 15 people in this massive country. Because of the fact we went early, we went early, we could have a lot more than that, we are doing great."
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says there are 62 people in the United States with coronavirus. Fifteen of these were detected and tested in the US through its public health system, plus there are an additional 47 who caught the illness overseas and have since been repatriated to the United States. Only one patient remains in hospital.

Democrats have been critical of the Trump administration's response, saying it is requesting too little money from Congress to fight the illness. The President has put vice-President Mike Pence in charge of the response. 
There have been two cases of coronavirus in the United States with no known origin.
More than 82,000 people worldwide have the illness - the vast majority from China - while about 2700 people have died.

For Black CEOs in Silicon Valley, humiliation is a part of doing business

For Black CEOs in Silicon Valley, humiliation is a part of doing business The Mercury News  /  by Bloomberg News  /  9h By Priya Anand and Sarah McBride | Bloomberg Will Hayes has grown accustomed to an awkward start to business meetings. On numerous occasions, venture capitalists would confuse Hayes, the head of software company Lucidworks Inc., with another man on his executive team. The investor would introduce himself, extend a handshake to the other guy and say, “Good to meet you, Will.” It’s strange because they don’t look alike. Also, Hayes is Black, and his deputy is White. This happened so many times, in dozens of meetings over many years, that Hayes and his longtime colleague, Keith Messick, say it’s no coincidence. Such unintentional instances of racism, they say, have become a routine—and insidious—part of doing business at a Black-led company in Silicon Valley. Protests over the death of George Floyd at the knee of a White police offi...

Fact Check: Trump lied 46 times at recent rallies Forty-six false and misleading claims the president has made at recent rallies. We reviewed all of President Donald Trump’s speeches at campaign rallies over five days, from Oct. 12 to Oct. 16. There were six speeches and combined, Trump spoke for more than eight hours, averaging about one hour and 20 minutes per speech. Below is a compilation of 46 of the false and misleading claims he made; Trump often repeated those claims at multiple rallies. We have organized them by subject matter. Trump spoke in  Sanford, Florida , on Oct. 12, his first rally since recovering from COVID-19. It was the shortest of the five speeches, at just over an hour. The following night, the Republican nominee spoke in  Johnstown, Pennsylvania,  followed by an Oct. 14 rally in  Des Moines, Iowa , then  Greenville, North Carolina,  on Oct. 15. He finished up the week with two rallies: one in  Ocala, Florida , and another in...
