The ‘not the public healthcare expert’ Larry Kudlow talks COVID-19 and another round of stimulus

“There is no second wave coming. It’s just hot spots. They send in CDC teams, we’ve got the testing procedures, we’ve got the diagnostics, we’ve got the PPE. And so I really think it’s a pretty good situation,” said Kudlow, director of the National Economic Council and chief economic advisor to President Donald Trump.

“Actually, I think nationwide the positivity rate is still quite low, well under 10%.” 

  • Kudlow said he isn’t too concerned about resurgences of Covid-19 cases in several states around the country.
  • “There is no second wave coming. It’s just hot spots. They send in CDC teams, we’ve got the testing procedures, we’ve got the diagnostics,” he said.
  • His comments came after the U.S. reported more than 30,000 new infections on Friday and Saturday, the highest daily totals since May 1.
  • Kudlow also discussed the odds of another fiscal stimulus package from Congress and the White House.
