the drastic locked on sent thousands rushing for trains out of Milan.

Basic passive voice

1/4 of Italy's population No one can leave or enter hospitals, air being overwhelmed by the virus, said the prime minister.

Milan look deserted Italy, now the worst hit country in the world.

366 now in all, on more than 1400 new infections.

Last night in Italy, the global fight against the Corona virus reached unprecedented levels over the weekend, with Italy's government placing more than 16 million people.

Ah quarter of their entire population under lock down, as more than 109,000 cases of the virus has been confirmed across at least 104 countries.

S, the response has been dramatically slower, but from all accounts, it doesn't have to be.

In a recent interview with The New York Times, Dr Bruce Award, a leader of the W H O team that recently visited China, saw firsthand how China rapidly suppressed the Corona virus outbreak that had engulfed Wuhan and was threatening the rest of the country.

This past weekend, Chinese officials reported only 99 new cases on Saturday, down from around 2000 per day just weeks earlier.

Aylward notes China's counter attack can be replicated, but it will require speed, money, imagination and political courage for countries that act quickly.

Containment is still possible because we don't have a global pandemic.

Morning Joe's chief medical correspondent, Dr Dave Campbell, went to our nation's capital this weekend to investigate the Trump administration's slow response.

They're spread of misinformation and what it will take for this deadly virus to be contained here in the U.

Anybody that needs a test, it's a test week.

They have the test and the test So beautiful.

To check on the status of the Corona virus outbreak response.

Local hospital surrounding the White House told me that they still rely on the CDC for their Corona virus testing, and it takes a few days to get the test results back.

Can you please help me understand where we're heading, both locally and perhaps internationally.

But they're going up everywhere in the world because if you look at some hospitals, nursing homes, prisons, cruise ships, whenever people are congregated together, it's got this amplification, and I call it a slingshot event.

When we started doing it our way with the CDC testing guidelines, we aimed for the stars and we missed, and that's gotten us behind the eight ball.

There's obviously been a lot of transmission going on silent transmission.

We've done almost no testing, no epidemiological research.

We catch up by rapidly getting out the test kits.

We catch up by funding our public health agencies.

We need to fund research and development, but we also need toe plan for the future because our hospitals could easily be overrun.

That could be overrun not just with people who have the disease but also the worried well on DSO.

Most people won't die of the Corona virus.

They'll die of cancer, heart disease, diabetes or even shot unsafe childbirth.

We've got a shortage of ventilators, medical equipment, protection equipment for doctors, and so we have a lot to catch up on.

We've recently passed the point, at which case we're now with more cases outside China than inside China on a daily basis, which I think is a pretty critical shift in this in this situation.

Lauren Gardner at Johns Hopkins created the Corona tracking map and is finding that the number of cases in China is dropping as the number of cases out of China increases.

This is speaking to the global nature of a disease like this.

I think there's a lot of lessons to learn from the Chinese response, and governments around the world right now are starting to respond to this disaster.

They're there, it is being contained, and do you not think it's being contained?

A lawyer when you say it's not being contained regarding the containment issue, I will still argue to you that this is contained, but it can't be airtight.

When public trust is broken and confidence is gone, it's very hard to regain.

I think that there's some leaders, including President Trump, who want to paint a rosy picture.

But as a result he ends up saying words that are misleading and frankly untrue.

And that gets very confusing because you don't want a muddled message to be coming out.

You don't want the president to be saying something and his top public health leaders to be sitting something because then who did the American people trust?

We're in the middle of a novel outbreak of a new disease, and so it makes sense that there is so much that we don't know.

What's so critical is for people to understand what's happening, and we in America, you to practice what we preach because we talk about other countries needing to have transparent, honest communication, not suppressing information, being open with the public, and we need to do that right here, and that needs to come from every level of government.

What do you think we should be telling our friends and neighbors and patients?

As we get more testing, we're going to find a lot more people who have colonel virus and may not know that they've had it.

We're going to find more clusters, Maur cases of community transmission, and it's easy to understand how this will breed fear.

And there will be a lot of changes in our daily life disruptions to our everyday life, for example, schools potentially being closed and travel being canceled and and work patterns being changed.

And I would say for everyone to be prepared for that, we're coming to you from Scarsdale Middle School, where a faculty member tested positive for the Corona virus.

And as a result, every school in the district will be closed for the rest of the week, and Stanford University, starting Monday, will be holding classes online for the next two weeks.

When you're on public transportation, find the least dense car or bus available.

Amtrak today announcing its canceling nonstop service from New York to Washington.

We're going to see in the United States in a few weeks where you're gonna have maybe tens of thousands of people who are quarantined in their own home.

If you know if you're rich or your upper middle class professional, you can telecommute.

But what about people who are living paycheck to paycheck?

We're coming on the political season now.

This is, you know, presidential campaign When we're going to do about political rallies.

There are so many things that are gonna change in our life.

We're gonna have a Nen enormous social and economic upheaval.

We need to have clear messaging from the White House and from the public health agencies to be able to do that.

We're not getting that every time we have a crisis, whether it's SARS or influenza H one and one or murders or Ebola were surprised.

How about in future we say we don't know what the next Big one is, but it is coming.

We don't know when, and we don't know what exact virus it's gonna be, but it will be here.

So rather than play catch up, why don't we prepare?

We have the best and brightest scientists, health care and public health people in the world who just let them do their job and don't get them and give them this political and social and economic support they need.

You know, you don't make its ZX another part of this.

That that actually, we all need to be concerned about all of us with loved ones who not may not be completely healthy.

The doctor was talking about the possibility of people who have diabetes, people who have cancer, people have heart heart problems.
