WHO press briefing:

"PANDEMIC"

But not the time for countries to move to mitigation
Must still try to suppress transmission, continue with containment efforts

All Travel from Europe to the United States suspended for 30 Days

Ban will not apply to the UK

Trump had said earlier: "I am fully prepared to use the full power of the Federal Government to deal with our current challenge of the CoronaVirus!" [source]

Pence: “All the insurance companies [...] have agreed to waive all copays on coronavirus testing, and extend coverage for coronavirus treatment in all of their benefit plans,”

Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases:

"Things will get worse." How much worse it will get depends on 2 things, he said:

1. containing the influx of infected people coming from other countries

2. containing local outbreaks within the U.S.

When pressed by lawmakers for an estimate of eventual fatalities in the U.S., Fauci said it will be “totally dependent upon how we respond to it.”

“I can’t give you a number,” he said. “I can’t give you a realistic number until we put into the factor of how we respond. If we’re complacent and don’t do really aggressive containment and mitigation, the number could go way up and be involved in many, many millions.”
