White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany on Monday defended President Trump’s claim that "99%" of coronavirus cases are harmless.

Fox News anchor Sandra Smith asked whether it was "helpful" for the president to characterize the virus in that way, pointing out that FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn did not back up the statement in a subsequent interview.

“The president was making a factual point that most people will recover from coronavirus who get it, that there are a very small fraction of people who fall victim to coronavirus in a fatal way,” McEnany told “America’s Newsroom.”
