Trump Jr says Covid deaths are down to 'almost nothing' on the day 1,000 people die | The Independent | Donald Trump Jr has claimed that the US death rate for Covid-19 is down to "almost nothing", speaking on a day in which almost 1,000 people died. The president's son, 42, appeared on Fox News and told host Laura Ingraham that people worried about Covid were "morons". He said: "These people are truly morons," referencing Sanjay Gupta, CNN's health correspondent, who told people they should not be attending Mr Trump's mass rallies. "I went through the CDC data, because I kept hearing about new infections, but I was like, `Why aren't they talking about this?' " he said. The president's son cited CDC data for Covid deaths without realising that it was provisional and constantly being updated.
