During the two-hour long Fox News "town hall," Mr. Trump forecast promising results for a vaccine, saying Americans should start going back to beaches this summer and recommending that shuttered schools need to reopen in September.
Mr. Trump is doing poorly in most polls ahead of the November presidential election against Democratic challenger Joe Biden.
In the next few days, Mr. Trump will follow up by breaking months of self-quarantine with long-distance trips to the key electoral states of Arizona and Ohio.
