'The president carries the burden of the 30 million Americans who have lost their jobs,' Kushner told Time magazine.
that reopening the country too quickly could spark fresh"suffering and death" was among many factors the president is considering as he shapes his coronavirus policy moving forward.
The virus has infected more than 1,370,000 people and killed at least 82,389 in the U.S. since the outbreak began. But the lockdowns imposed to stop the spread of the disease have had devastating economic consequences, driving unemployment levels not seen since the Great Depression. Trump has turned to Kushner for help on a number of top policy issues, including the opioid crisis, Middle East peace efforts, construction of a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border and criminal justice reform. Vice President Mike Pence is the head of the coronavirus task force, but Kushner has played an influential role in guiding the administration's response.
"We see testing as one of the keys to unlock the opening, but it’s not the only key," Kushner told Time. Kushner dismissed polls that show former Vice President Joe Biden leading the race as"inaccurate" and said the election will now be about who voters trust to rebuild the economy. He added that Trump was"looking forward" to debating Biden.
