In a statement in the Rose Garden, President Trump rules out a future national lockdown to curb the spread of coronavirus cases which are surging in many states across the country. "Ideally we won't go to a lockdown. I will not go - this administration will not be going to a lockdown. Hopefully whatever happens in the future, who knows which administration it will be... I can tell you this administration will not go to a lockdown," he says. The president also says Americans should remain vigilant and not let their guard down as winter approaches. close
