ANNAPOLIS, MD—The State of Maryland now has 774 confirmed cases of COVID-19—an increase of 425 cases over the last three days. There are now more than 1,500 confirmed cases in the National Capital Region—in Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Virginia—4.5 times more than there were just one week ago.
Governor Larry Hogan today issued the following statement:
“Over the last three days, the number of COVID-19 cases in Maryland has more than doubled. Cases in the National Capital Region have more than quadrupled over the last week alone. There is no timetable and no model that can tell us exactly how long this will last or how bad this is going to get.
“The federal administration’s swift approval of our request for a Major Disaster Declaration will drive more resources to our coordinated response. As chairman of the National Governors Association, I will continue to press for additional federal resources, including a Title 32 designation for Maryland and all the states to fund National Guard missions.
“Later today, I will convene conference calls with my full Cabinet and our Coronavirus Response Team of Maryland’s top doctors and public health experts to continue to address this crisis. I cannot stress this enough: Marylanders need to stay in place at home to help slow the spread of this deadly virus.
“Our state has already faced and overcome daunting challenges before, and we will do so again.”

go back to mommys basement you punk
This is the sanctuary State area of MD. What is the connection? News will not report the amount of illegals / non citizens are in this group, since it will be on the liberal Democrats head for the spread.
He said it! Why are you mad at me?
Why would a political party be responsible for the rate of spread of a virus?
Go read a book on virology. Or sociology. Or pandemics. Or the Bible LOL

And being the obvious Trump hater that you are, if Trump had said it WAS going to get bad (as he obviously knew), you would accuse him of panicking people. You will always hate Trump, while the rest of us are glad Trump is doing EVERTHING that he can do as president. As the billionaire he is, he is accustomed to making difficult and timely decisions. He doesn't hem and haw and play politics. America is blessed to have his leadership at this time in history. He will lead us through it and past it. We are lucky he is there and not some political lackey that is looking to "never allow a good crisis go to waste." Think where you have heard that line before. It wasn't a Republican.
