I want to thank everybody for being here today.

This morning I spoke with the leaders of the G seven G seven nations and they I really had a good meeting.

I think was a very, very productive meeting.

I also spoke with our nation's governors this afternoon.

We're announcing new guidelines for every American to follow over the next 15 days.

As we combat the virus, each and every one of us has a critical role to play in stopping the spread and transmission of the virus.

This was done by a lot of very talented people, some of whom were standing with me, and that's available.

Burkes will be speaking about that in just a few minutes.

It's important for the young and healthy people to understand that while they may experience milder cinder symptoms, they can easily spread this virus and they will spread it, indeed, putting countless others in harm's way.

We especially where about our senior citizens?

The what has task force meets every day and continually updates guidelines based on the fast evolving situation that this has become all over the world.

It's incredible what's happened in such a short period of time on the guidelines of the task force, the new modeling conducted by Dr Berks and our consultation with governors.

We've made the decision to further tough in the guidelines and blunt the infection.

Now we'd much rather be ahead of the curve than behind it, and that's what we are.

Therefore, my administration is recommending that all Americans, including the young and healthy, work to engage in schooling from home when possible, avoid gathering in groups of more than 10 people, avoid discretionary travel and avoid eating and drinking in bars, restaurants and public food courts.

If everyone makes this, uh, change or these critical changes and sacrifices now we will rally together as one nation and we will defeat the virus and we're going to I have a big celebration altogether who was several weeks of focused action.

We can turn the corner and turn it quickly.

I'm also pleased to report today that a vaccine candidate has begun the Phase one clinical trial this is one of the fastest vaccine development launches in history, not even close.

We're also racing to develop anti viral therapies, another treatments that we've had some promising results, early results but promising to reduce the severity and the duration of the center of the symptoms.

 And I have to say that our government is prepared to do whatever it takes, whatever it takes we're doing.
