Trump: Coronavirus is Democrats' 'new hoax'

Donald Trump has lashed out at Democrats who have questioned his handling of the coronavirus threat, calling it their new "hoax".

He made the remarks during a rally in North Charleston, South Carolina, a day before Democrats hold their primary in the state.

"I also created a White House. Virus task force, it's a big thing, a virus task force," he said.

"You hear thirty-five and forty thousand people and we've lost nobody. And you wonder the press is in hysteria mode."

The US president, who has held rallies on the eve of Democratic primaries in all four states to vote so far this year, gave a typically combative speech in North Charleston, South Carolina.
