What is the coronavirus press briefing for? 

Trump will likely discuss the spike in coronavirus cases throughout the country, as many states have had to shut down businesses even after reopening. 

There have been more than 3.8 million positive coronavirus cases in the United States since the pandemic began, with more than 141,000 deaths linked to the virus, according to a Johns Hopkins University tracker.

Who will speak during the briefing? 

Trump will speak during the briefing, but it’s unclear if anyone else will join him. According to multiple reports, no one from the White House Coronavirus Task Force will speak at Tuesday’s briefing, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

The Trump administration recently introduced new guidance that reroutes coronavirus data directly to the White House and bypasses the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, spurring fears that the White House may be trying to work around public health experts.
