Throughout the month of March, the number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the U.S. rose dramatically, and the U.S. now has the highest confirmed case count in the world.
These “stay-at-home” orders require residents to stay in their homes except for essential activities, which include buying food, seeking medical treatment, and exercising outdoors, provided they stay six feet away from anyone not part of their household. Medical professionals, caregivers, public-safety officials, sanitation workers, and other essential workers, such as those who work in grocery stores and pharmacies, are exempt.
Governor Andrew Cuomo has warned that the New York outbreak may still be weeks away from its peak, and that the state’s hospital system may soon be overwhelmed by the number of coronavirus cases. Last week in New York, a 68-bed field hospital was erected in Central Park, a naval hospital ship docked in Manhattan, and a 1,000-bed emergency hospital opened at the Javits Convention Center.
Still, there have been many issues with the availability of the coronavirus test. Some people say they’ve been denied tests, and even though Pence announced on March 3 that anyone in the country can be tested for coronavirus, subject to doctor’s orders, the rate of testing still varies widely from state to state.
