The commissioner of the US Food and Drug Administration on Sunday declined to defend President Donald Trump's
unfounded claim that 99% of coronavirus cases are "totally harmless" and repeatedly refused to say whether Trump's remark is true or false.
"I'm not going to get into who is right and who is wrong," Dr. Stephen Hahn, a member of the White House coronavirus task force, told CNN's Dana Bash on "State of the Union."
During his remarks Saturday at the White House Independence Day event,
Trump claimed without evidence that 99% of coronavirus cases "are totally harmless."
