Speaking during his opening monologue on ‘Hannity’ Wednesday night, Sean weighed-in on the ongoing Coronavirus outbreak across the country; saying the disease does not discriminate based on political ideology or party affiliation.
“Here’s something the media will not tell you: This is not about politics; this is about our American family. There will be plenty of time for politics down the road,” said Hannity. “We have pandemics from time to time. The President’s mission above all else is to protect the lives of the American people.”
“The Coronavirus does not discriminate between Republicans and Democrats, conservatives or liberals. This is a moment where we should all work together,” he added.
The global Coronavirus outbreak continued to have a major impact on the American economy and sporting world Thursday; with A-list actor Tom Hanks testing positive for the disease and the NBA suspending its entire season until further notice.
“Actor Tom Hanks, his wife Rita Wilson, they have tested positive for Coronavirus. They are in our prayers tonight,” said Hannity.
The President addressing the American public from the Oval Office Wednesday night; unveiling a series of new travel restrictions for all of Europe excluding the United Kingdom.
The 30-day ban starts Friday at midnight and applies to: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland, and excludes the United Kingdom and Ireland.
“This is the most aggressive and comprehensive effort to confront a foreign virus in modern history,” Trump said in an address to the nation. “I am confident by counting and continuing to take these measures we will significantly reduce the threat to our citizens and we will ultimately and expeditiously defeat this virus.”
