Many families that lost loved ones to covid-19 say they're frustrated that the president is still downplaying the threat after his hospital stay.

More than 31- hundred americans have died of covid since mr. trump revealed his positive test five days ago.

David begnaud, spoke to others who say they're hurt by the president's comments.

Goucher - goucher intv @ 1:23 i just felt really disrespected and unheard.

This is kara goucher , a two-time olympian and a silver medal- winning long distance runner.

Her grandfather, 96-year-old calvin heyworth, died yesterday due to complications from the coronavirus.

When we spoke earlier in the day, she told us she could not believe what the president was saying about covid-19.

I'm glad that he was treated and that he is beating covid.

But for so many people, hundreds of thousands of people in this country, that's not the case.

And the pain is very, very real.

The tone from the top matters karen aguirre told us it was the president's behavior that upset her.

She lost her cousin ... 65 year old sandy melgar ... and sandy's 66 year-old husband renee to the virus late last month.

They died 3 days apart.

When i saw him get in the car with the secret service agents and drive around and wave to everybody.

And i thought.

The people in the car have families, the people who tend to him, they have families and now they're exposed to a virus they're going to take home with them as the president continues to downplay the virus goucher is asking president trump for compassion.

I really was thinking today, watching my grandfather struggle with every breath of his being ... // ... his life is worthy.

He is a world war two veteran // he deserves to die with dignity and with respect and with his family surrounding him.

And if we had all worn our masks and if we had all social distanced, we would be able to hug him and tell him what we feel and hold his hand and // it's devastating to lose him.

Kara was particularly close to her grandfather.

That's because he helped to raise her and her sisters after their dad was killed by a drunk driver when she was 4 years old.

Both of the women you just heard from went out of their way to say they're glad the president is doing well and they want him to make a full recovery.

But i was struck by one thing kara said.

You heard her say some compassion helps.

But she said for those of us suffering, some empathy goes a long way, too.

Db, cbs news, manhattan 100720-intro with just weeks to go before the election, chances are you or someone you know is feeling stressed or anxious about the results.

Michael george explains "electio stress disorder" and what you can do about it.

100720-pkg does just watching this stress you out?

Are you checking social media a little átoo muchá.

Well, you're not alone- marsha palanchi says she's been feeling election anxiety too.

"i was keepin pretty zen about the whole situation, till i watched the debates, and then that went out the window and i have been incredibly stressed."

"i'm getting a lo of emergency calls of resentment or anger."

Couples therapist dr. steven stosny says stress over the election is causing many americans to fight with their spouses, friends, and co- workers.

During the 2016 election, he coined a term for it: "electio stress disorder" and he says this year, the anxiety is even worse.

"anxiety makes yo feel powerless, and resentment and anger makes you feel temporarily more empowered."

And we often turn that resentment and anger on the people closest to us.

Many we spoke with say they can't help but get caught in political fights.

"i try to avoid it but sometimes you have to respond to what they're saying."

4:49 "the election i only a month away, so it's going to get more and more intense."

Dr. stosny says you can reduce your anxiety with exercise, writing your feelings down, or do what marsha palanci does&avoid social media and resist the urge to argue with others.

"i'm very carefu not to bring up politics, otherwise it would be the end of the friendship, it would be too volatile."

And if you do find yourself in an argument, try and keep it respectful.

It's healthier for you and your relationships.
