Trump suggests insurers should pay virus business interruption claims
In a statement responding to Mr. Trump’s remarks, R.J. Lehmann, director of finance, insurance and trade policy at conservative think tank The R Street Institute, said the president was “misinformed about the scope and nature of business interruption coverage.”
The coverage “is designed to provide revenue protection for businesses whose properties suffer physical loss from natural causes like fires or windstorms or human-caused events like vandalism or terrorism,” Mr. Lehmann said.
