One of his task force experts also backed the plan - another respected doctor.
In some news reports there was a video of the expert speaking before Trump - rather like Boris and the two guys today.

I'm off to Spain on Monday, meant to have a little trip and then arrive in Madrid a week or so later. Slightly awkward timing

The evidence is in the ABC News link.
Unless you are telling me that is fake news.
Trump is following the advice of his experts.
What part of that statement can you not grasp?

Question 2 was: Is the major method of transmission via the virus settling on hard surfaces or airborne droplets ????
Your answer ("Yes") wasn't terribly helpful.

Cracking a solo.
I'm sorry if I'm missing something, you said he followed the advice of his experts for his announcement on Wednesday, the article says the scientists backed his decision when they were asked on Thursday.
Aren't advised and backed different things?
For service to the nation at time if national emergency. Or because some feel he’s telling Boris what he wants to hear and is part of big cover up?
In so doing putting his professional registration at risk and his self respect with his peers.
Out the 2 the former is the least we can do. I doubt once this is over he will be the only one. To be thanked by the nation.

You don't need to make it up. Trump is on a mission to undo everything Obama did and run him down at every opportunity.

Trump is going to kill many Americans with his stupidity over this
And take down most of the worlds economy with them.
He looks like a dosser to me. A real cross-the-road-if-he's-walking-towards-you type. The sort who'd be asking you if you could lend him a couple of quid. I know it's wrong to look disparagingly at a person's sartorial foibles but the newspapers weren't shy about doing this in a recent election, were they? Or with Michael Foot a few years ago. Whitty does look like a right tramp though and there's no hiding from that.
I thought it was a good press conference.
It's a shame that it wasn't communicated earlier they believe 10 to 20 times the number of people have it to those that are confirmed.
Interesting as the football ground stuff repeated but explained in scotland they don't want medics there that could be used elsewhere.

I can't believe that at the time of a crisis, your issue with the person driving the nation's response is how he dresses
Do you see how this makes you look?

Resolutely on topic
Yes, and in this case it is very wrong.

Did he look like a dosser?
I was watching on a communal telly - appropriately in a hospital waiting area - but I didn't notice any of them looking scruffy.
I did think Boris looked smarter than usual.
