U.S. officials are warning COVID-19 could kill between 100,000 and 240,000 Americans, even with social distancing measures.

Trump has extended social distancing guidelines through April 30th.

New York is the deadliest hot spot in the U.S. with more than 15,000 deaths state wide, most of them in New York City.
