CDC, along with the other health experts, has declared that the epidemic of the coronavirus has worsened. They are also advising sensitive and sick people to stay at home and prevent going to crowded places or traveling to countries with many cases of the virus. Traveling by cruise ship is also strongly discouraged.

The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases' director, Anthony Fauci, has announced that the virus has worsened and that it would be impossible to block the virus from growing even more.

The cases of the coronavirus have reached several areas, like Washington D.C., New York, Texas, and Washington state. Lawmaker, Sen. Ted Cruz, has tested positive after being in contact with a COVID-19 positive person during the Conservative Political Action Conference in National Harbor.

He stated that he didn't have symptoms alike to the coronavirus, but he deliberately self-quarantined himself when he returned. Other people who attended the conference self-quarantined themselves too, even though they weren't feeling sick.

After the conference of The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), two participants acquired the coronavirus and might have infected others too. Due to the current happenings, health experts are expecting the virus to spread even more.

Health officials have featured themselves in several TV Shows to talk about the virus and encouraging people to get themselves tested. Fauci, along with the other health officials, stated to the public to shield themselves before it gets too late. He advised everyone to stay at home and discouraged traveling and going to crowded places.

He said that it would be impossible to discover the root of the virus since the outbreak has gone worse. 

Neurosurgeon Ben Carson said that if you are healthy, then you can go on with your usual and daily routines. If you are sensitive and unhealthy, then you should be more careful.

Health experts are studying the patients in New Jersey who have acquired the virus because they want to discover its source.

A total of 114 patients have tested positive in the state of Washington and currently have already 18 deaths due to the virus. The latest reported deaths were from Life Care in Kirkland.

The previous FDA commissioner of Trump, Scott Gottlieb, stated that he and the experts are going to do their best to reduce the reach of the coronavirus before it gets way worse and before the health officials and facilities become drained and casualties increase.

CDC and other health officials said that vulnerable and aged citizens are the top priority. Citizens, including the leaders and the government officials, should also postpone physical meetings and conferences to prevent acquiring the virus.

Jerome Adams, a Surgeon General, said that they are going to make the public know more about the issue and that more cases and deaths are going to be expected.

Just like how SARS disappeared, Fauci, together with the health officials, are hoping it will happen the same way with the coronavirus.
